Black Magicians

"Power is truth, truth is power. Beauty is an illusion, a lie spun by our elders to keep us on their rigid path. To see the truth, you will see what it truly is to be a Kithain!"

They are the least known of the Dauntain, although perhaps the most dangerous. The Black Magician has consciously chosen to take the cold, unforgiving path of Banality out of sheer hunger for power. He seeks nothing from this path beyond fulfillment of his own desires. He understands that this path can and will bring him power beyond his wildest dreams, but his own pride prevents him from recognizing the ultimate price of his choice.
The first step, of course, is the choice. This is when the Dauntain decided to embrace the power of Banality. This can take many directions. Imagine a Kithain who begins to regularly use Banality to fight off the effects of Glamour. He may soon discover that he can use it in different ways, such as to actively destroy things of Glamour, to drive Kithain into their seemings, to selectively remove certain aspects of Glamour (for example, to prevent the use of a Kithain´s Birthright, or to alter the sphere of effect of a cantrip) and perhaps even more. In the above examples, the Dauntain gains the ability to use his Arts and Realms in conjunction with Banality. Other means of setting down this path include making a habit of slaying Kithain, or really any conscious activity (not simple exposure) which can result in an increase of Banality.
This is a doomed path simply because it never provides all that the Dauntain seeks, yet hye always feels that he has nearly reached his goal. He is almost always Undone before he finally arrives at his destination. Unfortunally, this Dauntain causes great damage to Kithain society before he is slain or devoured by the forces he wields in his mad quest for gratification. He is consumed by paranoia and hatred as his hunger carries him along darker and darker paths. Shortly after he begins turning, even his closest companions will be suspect in his eyes. He will remove any potential threat to his power as he rampages through the world.
Despite all this, the Black Magicians is the most epic of all the Dauntain. His quest is a truly anti-heroic one as he seeks that which he can never have and destroys all that he should treasure. For the Black Magician, to succeed is ultimately to fail. His salvation lies in showing him the damage he´s done and convincing him to renounce his power madness.

Apparance
The Kithain, the Black Magician appears sinister and menacing. He seems to loom in the darkness as shadows gather about him like moths to a flame. His voice takes a chilly, foreboding note which tends to make Kithain - even the sidhe - shiver at the sound.

Outlook
Kithain: Fools, all! They cannot understand that which they willfully ignore. But they will not ignore me when I arrive at their doorstep and bring their precious freeholds down around their pointed ears!

The Lost: Deluded fools. How can they truly believe they are different from the rest of us?

The Curesed: They are as children playing with matches in a gas station. They know not what power they wield, what potential they waste.

Nihilists: These are of no consequence; pay them no mind. Perhaps they´ll go away. That is, after all, their ultimate wish.

Apostates: They are very easily manipulated. Their ridiculous belief system is a fragile house of cards, awaiting a careless hand to scatter them. Tell them that your enemies poses a particularly dire threat to their faith. Odds are, if you state it properly within their terms, they won´t waste a moment to argue.

Typhoids: Irresponsible, that´s what it is. I wonder if one could lead me to some Prodigal blood? I hear it has amazing properties.
