Influential Organizations of Imarel - by T.A. Saunders ©2010 v1.5

Shei Toru

This organization does not have much reach outside the city of Vale but within Vale itself they are extremely dangerous to anybody who threatens Moon Elvish interests. Thought to have once been members of the Illumina Valos, they do not wear any manner of garment to identify themselves openly, but have a single rune tattooed onto the left wrist that identifies them. Where the Illumina Valos favors peaceful co-existence, the Shei Toru is more militant and will often be behind the sabotage of foreign vessels at her harbors or for the death of a traveler of another race.

These Elvish purists are treated with disdain by the Vale city government, though an alarming number of Moon Elves in the city treat them with a begrudging sympathy rather than outright hostility. This makes the Shei Toru extremely difficult to manage for the city government who finds sympathizers within their own city guard. To leave the Shei Toru is an act of shame and will result in being at best, ostracized from one's fellows, at worst the target of abuse and death threats.
