Horned Society

Template:Greyhawk Organization The Horned Society is a secret society of Oerth devoted to evil. The name can also be applied to a former independent nation of the Flanaess, formerly part of Iuz's kingdom, which has since been reclaimed and is now known as the Horned Lands.

Structure

The leaders of the Horned Society are known as Hierarchs. There were thirteen Hierarchs when the Society ruled its own lands. All but two of the Heirarchs, Andrade Mirrius and Nezmajen, were slain by Iuz's forces during his coup on the night of the Blood Moon Festival. The current exact number of Hierarchs is uncertain.
