Introduction

Corvo are sometimes called 'Nightcrawlers', as their name roughly translates to such in the old Icherranian tongue they were first named in. Though they originate in the hills of Samara, the advent of the Dunash across Icheron and the domination of the Unbreathing Horde has forced them entirely astray of their original homes, clinging to old Covens and roots burrowed deep within Atharen's soil.

The Corvo, who all belong to a faction known as the Brotherhood of Scaeva, are a collective of men and women chosen by Brazim, securing information, culling threats and serving the whims and will of whichever merchant, Lord or King offers them coin. Though the Corvo offer Brazim information through their duties, it is largely believed that they are more a product of his vanity than practicality, a simple desire to leave his imprint upon the world.

Like most Blights, Corvo are rare in the world, perhaps the rarest save for the Wohlricht. If they were common, it would be impossible to know. They are secretive, and most of their changes are subtle enough to be imperceptible to those other than the most vigilant of eyes, or experts in the field of Blights. Some may speculate that a particularly handsome man in their village, known for bedding loosely, may be a Nightcrawler; the same may be said of a courtesan of legendary beauty and grace, a woman privy to the ears of great Lords and Ladies. These speculations are scant proven, and the trademark of any proper Nightcrawler - in the face of great speculation - is to disappear.

The first tell to determine whether someone is a Corvo or not is, of course, the fact that they're exceedingly good-looking. Many of them were born this way, and many weren't; legends exist of disgusting wretches and malignant lepers becoming renowned beauties overnight, all thanks to this Blight. In truth, even a naturally attractive person changes some once Brazim has blessed them with his favor. Their skin becomes clearer and more vibrant, their body naturally chiseled to their liking. The imperfections common to all mortals are lost on them, who may choose to surrender their scars, their extra weight, their drooping chin, slacking jaw or the stature they always found to be the one thing that held them back. Their skin almost appears warmer, their features more pleasant and inviting, their smile mystifying. A Corvo's scent is perhaps their most drawing feature: it radiates warmth and draws arousal from others, channeling their innate hunger with a fragrance that compels lust and the absence of caution.
