Flaming Fist New Recruit Booklet
To: All members and associates of the Flaming Fist From: Gauntlet Edwynna You've read the Flaming Fist Companion. You've had your welcomes, learned your histories. You might think you're here to uphold justice, to protect the meek and the innocent, to follow in the footsteps of the great Eltan. Forget all of it. Every damned word. Baldurians are not 'meek and innocent', and the only justice most of them deserve is the blunt end of a club. Every last one is either a criminal already or one theft away from becoming one. Don't trust a soul, because they sure as the Hells don't trust you. And to that, I say 'good'. They shouldn't. They should shiver when they see you coming, keep their eyes on the ground when you pass. Fear leads to order. Order leads to peace. This is your duty, no matter what Ulder Ravengard, Liara Portyr, or any other supposed 'bastion of justice' might tell you.
