“Remember these words, for if you do not, you will find yourself in dire peril.”
—Ksakka Oyars, Studies in Demonic Bindings

Void templars delve into the outer layers of the void to gain power for victory. They study numerous means of debilitating their foes, both via weapon and spell; their signature is the use of demonbound weapons. The Void is a power of law and evil, and cannot be manipulated by any who are of chaotic or good mindset.

Introduction

First rising to prominence during the War of Night, Void templars are a fusion of both dark magics and martial force. Because of its shuddeni roots, they are the primary dedicants of this profession. However, it also has a substantial following amongst the aelin, forming the origin of its famously diabolic ginta. The srryn, too, have taken up the art, forming a distinctly Sithean Sept devoted to seeking its demonic power. The practice has appeal to other races, including both humans and nefortu, giving it particular allure amongst mercenaries.

Although learned in several powerful defensive techniques, Void templars are primarily offensive in nature. They study numerous means of debilitating their foes, both via weapon and spell. A Void templar’s signature, however, is his use of demonbound weapons.
