Motives

The Bloodsworn are rivals/allies of the Brotherhood of Brenna, with reasonable relations with Tark Stonehand of the Brotherhood. They have declared themselves to be enemies of the Silver Sea Pirates, the mind flayers led by Dulshoon, Cato and his orc tribe, and Dragon King Conrad. Their goals are varied, but include the discovery of a city made of gold, finding arcane secrets, stopping the Church of the True Faith, hunting down evil mind flayers, protecting the village of Redwood, and the creation of blood golems.

Achievements

The following are the Bloodsworns' most noteworthy accomplishments.

• The slaying of the Monster of Winterhome
• The rescue of Peter Andon from the Rubble City Ruins
• The clearing out of the Lyrian Caverns and the subsequent death of Shulk
• Solving the Boneblade murder mystery in the city of Brenna
• Storming the Valley of Ogres alongside the Brotherhood of Brenna and banishing Kamatu
• Tracking down Squidface through his ally Hobbes and killing Squidface upon the island of Ob
• Discovering the Eye of the Phoenix in the cursed city of Skuldr Fane

Blood Golems

Mallarus can use strange arcane magic involving a blood oath, a heart and a suit of reinforced metal armour to create a blood golem. So far, the only blood golem was created from Lia's corpse, and has bladed arms, reflecting her use of two swords. It defends the bridge of Widow's Watch from would be attackers.
