Dark priests and priestesses of the Black Sun seek out the most ruthless ogres among their followers and empower them with tattooed glyphs to enhance their tremendous strength and fortitude. Unlike many ogres, those sought for initiation into the ranks of the Knights of the Black Sun can control their ferocity and rage, holding it back until it is needed most. \n'b'  Infernally Empowered . Once selected to join the Knights of the Black Sun, these ogres undergo a series of torturous and unholy rituals, their skin marked to channel infernal energy into their bodies. This new power gives Black Sun ogres greater protection and fuels their already brutal attacks into something otherworldly. When caught at a distance, Black Sun ogres can call upon these infernal brandings to shred their opponents with dark energy from afar. Up close, the unholy blades of the Knights of the Black Sun writhe with malevolent magic. \n'b'  Knights of the Black Sun . Black Sun ogres serve their lieges in many ways. The knights often serve as guardians for powerful priests or priestesses. Often Black Sun knights are sent on quests in pairs, an elder and a newly-branded squire, to recover lost artifacts, find scribes useful to the Black Sun\xe2\x80\x99s research, eliminate heretical and chosen enemies, or seek lost ruins discovered in prophecies. In war, Black Sun knights serve as a nearly unstoppable vanguard of an army, attacking in groups of ten or twenty during sieges or frontal assaults. Few armies have seen the coming of the Knights of the Black Sun and survived the experience.'
