The Nebular Sin Patrol

Nebulars · nebs · Nebular Sin Patrol

The entire Alucarda patrol is killed by Carl's explosives and the enraged Dark Hive warriors.

Story so far

Roughly ten robed Nebular priests open fire on Carl's return point, badly wounding him and one mantis. Tripper, the alarm trap, and a full-strength Hob-Lobber scatter and maim the group, killing three directly.

Carl marks three survivors who are then killed by the berserking mantis. The remaining priests die in the factional melee, leaving no living Nebulars in the town by the time Carl confronts Vrah.

Appearance

Tube-covered robed hunters with tall hats, later exposed as young humanoid priest candidates beneath torn garments.

Role

The patrol's firepower hurts both Carl and the mantises before its members become fuel for the chaos strategy.

Relationships

Carl — They ambush him and are then manipulated into his battle with the Dark Hive.
The Dark Hive — The two groups fight until the patrol is annihilated.
Marked For Death — Three members' deaths award Carl Intelligence points.
