I originally had a much longer OP. But somehow I clicked on nothing and that removed it from existence.
The basic idea is a good/ neutral organization of Garyx worshipers Called the Order of the Burning Eye.
Consists of four main parts.
The Divine Order of the Burning Eye: The original core upon which the other groups latched. A group of Garyx worshiping Archivests who believe the Power of destruction is ultimately good.
The Arcane: The as yet to be named group of arcane mages within the order, Primarily Sorcerers. Originally were hired on as battle mages to support the Furies in combat.
The Furies: The Orders army. These are the guys who will club, shoot, and stab the enemies of the Order to near death, get angry at them for dying too quickly bring them to the Archivests for healing and then do it again. The Furies are named mainly for the fact that if you can tell a veteran of the mob apart from a recruit primarily by how angry he is. The Actual Furies themselves are the leaders, and they are basically as close to Rage incarnate as a living human being can become. Most of them are either Warblades or Barbarians. Firearms are used, and the Warblades tend to use The Black rain discipline (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=99529)
And,
The skilled guys
Again I could never come up with a name for these guys.
Basically 9/10ths of this group are craftsman of some sort, the support staff for the rest of the order, and the ones who man the Artillery Bombards Occasionally used by the Furies are all part of this group.
And the other 1/10 are assassins, who really aren't numerous enough or liked enough to be given their own building on the temple grounds. They normally do nothing, but if the Order absolutely needs someone dead now these guys can do it. Quite probably more dangerous than anyone but the Divine order themselves.
So I was wondering could anyone help me flesh out these guys a little more?
My intention was for a questionable, but undeniably non-evil, organization that Hijacks Garyx for the forces of good.
Partly I can't think of a name for either the arcane or the support group. And I'm sure I've left some sort of hole in the backstory.
