Kabals of Commorragh: The Baleful Gaze

THE BALEFUL GAZE

The Baleful Gaze is formed exclusively from those who once occupied the lowest rungs of all Commorrite society. Much like their Archon, Lady Llanthei, the Baleful Gaze's tall and well-groomed members are all obsessed with the possession of virginal beauty. Controlling a large portion of Blighthaven Docks, they once starved and scrabbled in the gutters for scraps of anguish, but they have since clawed their way back to the top of the pile and absolutely refuse to languish in squalor and ugliness ever again. The steely determination with which this Kabal fights in the war against realspace is unmatched, for the Baleful Gaze knows the price of failure better than any other. Strangely, the Kabal enjoys a great measure of respect due to the unglamorous past of its members. After all, one with the inner resolve to escape the downward spiral and rise again makes for a formidable foe. Having once been haggard and cadaverous creatures, members of the Baleful Gaze prize aesthetics above all else. Beauty must be seized whilst it lasts, they say, for all things fade in time. In truth, the Baleful Gaze fear the loss of physical glory more than anything, and will go to extraordinary measures to ensure that it does not slip through their grasp once more.
