The Betrayers

The Betrayers was the name given to 2 separate groups who eventually merged into a single group: The Betrayers of Ethrenal and The Betrayers of Obsidis. The Betrayers would ritualistically sever their ears, as ears were the only reliable way of distinguishing a few of the most common anthropoid species, particularly humans and Ashenal. Much later, The Stewards would refer to The Betrayers as The Founders.
