# {{ page.title }}

"Dark Folk" is a catch all for couple species that share the same language and
have some physical similarities. The small ones are dirty, vicious things that
dress in rags and love stabbing people. The medium sized ones hold nearly all
leadership positions, dress in immaculate black outfits and while less directly
quarrelsome tend towards sadism. All species have bodies that behave violently
when killed.The party had several run ins with them in the past, largely
centered around the noose. They used Acronis as an oracle, and were mad when the
party absconded with it. However, at some point Barri managed to convince, or
bully, them into serving him. The details of that are not known to the party.
The Dark Folk are known to be skilled at stealth, poison use, and arcane lore
that is considered abstract, in particular they are knowledgeable about many
facets of the Shadow Plane and the Underdark. They famously hate dwarves of all
kinds, gnomes and light.
