|There are in reality 7 factions in the Jihad, but not all races and       |
|subclasses are welcome in each faction, so below are the faction          |
|restrictions.                                                             |

|Karaveth:         Elf, Fey                    Chaosmage                   |
|                                                                          |
|Mother of all:  See Next Section, its easier to say what she will accept  |
|**************************************************************************|
|Mother of All:  Only  Fey, Elves, Preservers, Natives (non Danpiru)       |

|ATTITUDES:                                                                |

|The different factions get along with each other to varying degrees, some |
|are quite amiable, some have instant and violent hatreds.  The degree of  |
|attitude can affect certain skill usage.  For example: A bless from Everen|
|might receive a 25% bonus when used on a follower of Everen and a -50%    |
|penalty when used on a follower of Karaveth.                              |
|                                                                          |

|eg: Atheists tolerate everything but love only other atheists.            |

|HOLYWAR:                                                                  |

|The command holywar is used to keep track of the jihad and its various    |
|scores. Type "holywar" for further instructions.                          |
|                                                                          |

|A team war has a chance to become a Jihad Based War if the war daemon     |
|calculates that there is enough diversity to ensure a reasonably balanced |
|war between enough teams.  This can mean however than one team has 3 heros|
|and 6 teams have one hero, good truces and gangs are the responsibility of|
|the players not the war daemon.                                           |
|                                                                          |
|JIHAD COMMUNICATION:                                                      |
|The channel daemon holds channels for the 6 factions.  Atheists get no    |
|channel, sorry unbelievers.                                               |
|                                                                          |
|The channel daemon should automagically pipe your messages to the correct |
|faction line by typing "jihad message_here" like every other channel.     |
|                                                                          |
|TEMPLES AND DEATH:                                                        |
|Each faction has its own center of power, the great Cathedrals of their   |
|faiths.  Each has its own unique guardian.  Members of the faction can go |
|to their temple when they die by typing "temple" and then "pray" for      |
|resurrection.  Each temple also can offer a special bonus unique to each  |
|temple once per reboot.  Directions to each temple can be found at        |
|"help temples"                                                            |
