The Brotherhood of the Wolf: The Brotherhood of the Wolf is a secret society established by Father Henri Sardis and other well-connected nobles and gypsies from the Gévaudan region. The society is dedicated to forcing the French King to return to a more 'morale' path in service to the church. While strongly opposed by the church, the group continues to attempt to spread terror throughout the region through use of the Beast. While believed wiped out in the purge of 1764, it is unknown if it has been completely destroyed.
