Blackstreets

• The Penumbral Cloister: The shadow-monks of the Cloister are a swift and silent order of ascetics. Their style of battle is known as the "Shadow Rising and Falling." Their disciplines include extensive scholarship as well as contemplation, and they frequently take the Scion of Shadow or Scholar themes. A frequent accusation by those who do not like the Cloister's monks are that Assassins are also trained here, a charge that has never been substantiated.
