The Grey Tower

So I scrolled through the Companion and found the entry on the Black Ajah. Some of it was cut off, but some of it wasn't! I took screenshots, so take a look! We definitely should incorporate some of this. Also, the tasks and things they talk about for testing novices and Accepted sound great for plot purposes! We should include that in our plots...

Let me know if the links work or not!

The way it discusses punishments makes me think that how Lydie is recruiting them is entirely against the rule book. I vote that plot happens and Lydie ends up getting super punished! Maybe even killed if we run out of plot uses for her.

Also, I found the entirety of the Black Oaths in there!

1. I shall obey all commands given by those placed above me in service to the Great Lord
2. I shall prepare for the day of the Great Lord's return
3. I shall hold close the secrets of the Black Ajah, unto the hour of my death

That first oath is terrible! Rhykana will not enjoy that at all.

Awesome! Thank you for getting those for us. Now there is the (I think) obvious question. Since the BA was started by Ishamael, is the GT BA therefore a branch of the WT BA or are they autonomous as the other ajahs are? Being a branch I think is more canon but either way, that sounds like plot arc engines to me!

I think being autonomous of the WT BA would be a lot more fun, because it means we can plot BA vs BA madness in the future. MRP, maybe?

Oh absolutely. I think we should quote the relevant bits if at all possible on some part of our "about the BA" pages. That will help new-comers.
