Banes of Chaos

The Banes of Chaos are incarnations of the Virtues of Chaos without their counterparts of Order. They are essentially perversions of their corresponding Forces. The Anti-Forces manifest themselves as a kind of malevolent spiritual being, ergo, the Banes. If the Banes are spung free, the Imbalance starts, and worsens, the longer the Banes are free. The Banes themselves have horrible powers. The Banes actually aren't evil, they are only manifestations of powers out of control.

The Banes of Chaos came into being, when the followers of Order ripped the Chaos Serpent into pieces in their pure hatred. From the pieces, the the Banes came. The Followers of Order imprisoned them into special prisons in the Temples of Ethically, Discipline and Logic, before leaving the Serpent Isle. The Banes had time and waited. Then came Batlin in his quest for power...

The Bane of Wantonness
The Bane of Wantonness represents acting without self-restraint and was imprisoned into the Temple of Ethically. It was the first Bane, Batlin's men freed. The Bane posessed Gwenno, and they chased her deep into the icy north, before killing her, and catching the Bane.

When Batlin was killed by the Guardian, the Bane posessed Dupre, and he became the Wantonness Bane. At first, he led the Goblins against Monitor, enabling them to enter the city and slaughter the Inhabitants. Then he went to the Inn of the Sleeping Bull, and massacred everyone in the Inn in a fit of rage, before retreating to the Castle of the White Dragon.

The Bane of Anarchy
The Bane of Anarchry represents a lack of standards of conduct, and was imprisoned into the Temple of Discipline. Anarchy was freed second by Batlin's men. It posessed Angus at the Inn of the Sleeping Bull. They chased him up to Skullcrusher, before they were able to kill him, and catch the Bane.

When Batlin was killed by the Guardian, the Bane posessed Shamino, and he became the Shamino the Anarch. He went to the city of Moonshade, usurping the position of the Mage Lord. Abolishing any kind of law, he watched with glee the mages killing each other, while slaughtering the inhabitants without magic, and turning Fedabiblio to stone. That done, he retreated to the Castle of the White Dragon.

The Bane of Madness
The Bane of Madness represents an inability to overcome emotional impulses with rational thoughts, and was imprisoned into the Temple of Logic. Madness was the last to be freed, when the Avatar already was on the Serpent Isle, and posessed Cantra. Batlin's men chased her the Castle Shamino, where Batlin managed to kill her and catch the Bane.

When Batlin was killed by the Guardian, the Bane posessed Iolo, and he became the Mad Iolo. He went to the city of Fawn, gloating at them for their foolish belief in Beauty. He let loose plague and vermin, while massacring all of the inhabitants, with excaption of the ugly Ruggs. He then skinned Lady Yelinda alive, telling her that beauty is only skin-deep, before retreating to the Castle of the White Dragon.

End of the Banes
The end of the Banes came, when the Avatar destroyed them with the Black Sword, loading them into Soul Prisms. The Banes ceased to exist, when they were re-united into the Chaos Serpent.
