Fisher Sect
The Fisher sect / clan is introduced in book #2, Soulsmith
Contents
Brief
The Fisher clan (or sect) live in the Desolate Wilds, in the forlorn western region of the Blackflame Empire. Fishers are part of the Five Factions Alliance, along with Jai exiles, Sandvipers, Cloud Hammers, and the Purelake Temple sect. Like the other four factions, the Fishers search the Transcendent Ruins for Magical Items.
Enemy Sandvipers
The Fishers and the Sandvipers are historic feuding enemies.
There were constructs in the tent to heat what water they brought, but if there existed any constructs that could create water out of madra, only the Purelake might have Soulsmiths skilled enough to build them. Maybe the Fishers, but he couldn't have any dealings with the Sandvipers' ancestral enemy. Not openly, anyway. (Soulsmith, ch 6)
Path
Path of the Fisherman, aspects of force madra, perhaps gravity. The Goldsign is webbed fingers.
Soulsmithing
This clan follows a Path with aspects of force, like gravity. This attracting type of madra works well for Soulsmithing because it helps bind constructs together. The clan soulsmith is Fisher Gesha, a very old, very wizened Truegold who plays a big role in books #2-6, mainly. She travels to the heart of the Blackflame Empire with Lindon and becomes his tutor, teaching him her trade.
