I sense editing. This takes care of Vague Evil nicely, but Trolloc shouldn't
be what any Drone who is uninvolved is.

I thought the Dreadlords could channel?

Exactly. Ba'alzamon, which in the Trolloc tongue means "Great Heart of the
Dark", is the Darkfriends' name for the Dark One. Or did I put it as the
seventh level by mistake?

Hm, that might be fun. Of course, there would have to be some corresponding
evil group among the Asha'man. Also, you shouldnn't be able to join the
Black Ajah until you are full Aes Sedai.

We could also have a player or two be declared to be a Forsaken in disguise,
reporting to the Minister of the Black Ajah and having powers vastly
superior to those they seem to everyone else to have.

Oh, and maybe the Forsaken get to know who is Black Ajah. Or maybe not.

And the power can only be used as a weapon if you are certain the victim is
Black Ajah or Forsaken.

>Of course, knowing this game, we'd end up with a secret society consisting

I was about to mention that.

But you simply have to limit who can join.
