Factions

contains factions that the NPCs of Qud belong to. These factions have initial starting reputation with the player character. Based on these reputations and individual creature demeanor, some will attack on sight, while others are more neutral. Most factions use water to perform the water ritual with, but there are some factions that prefer other liquids. Depending on the faction, their interests also change, making certain types of secrets limited to a particular set of factions.

Hidden Factions
There are also factions that are ordinarily hidden from the player in-game, but visible factions are children of these factions. Because they were not intended to be encountered in game, they are not water ritualable.
