Covenant
Overview
Year Founded: Unknown
Status: Unknown
The Covenant are a mysterious group of violent religious fanatics. While they are most well known for terrorizing the streets of Chernogorsk, they have been known to appear at random across the country. The Covenant are often referred to as "the Bagheads" due to their peculiar choice of headwear. Little is known about the inner workings of the group, who are either unable or unwilling to speak to the few people that encounter them and live to tell the tale.
Alignment
Members of the Covenant are incredibly unpredictable. They are most well known for attacking without warning or conversation, particularly in Chernogorsk (and especially near the "Well of Sorrow" and the eastern Church). The motivation for their attacks are mostly unknown, although, survivors abducted by the Covenant have claimed that group forcibly converted them to some form of religion, demanding that they consume human flesh to complete the ritual.
Despite their violent appearances, members of the Covenant have been found hidden in densely populated and well guarded areas, seemingly observing people for extensive periods of time.
Appearance
Earning the nickname of "the Bagheads" for their choice of headwear, the Covenant are exclusively seen wearing burlap sack masks. The general condition of their clothing tends to be very poor.

Olix - The mayor of Olixtown is one of the few people that the Covenant can be described as being "friendly" to. They repeatedly visited the aging man, often bringing gifts, attempting to convince him to wear a burlap mask. On several occasions Olix was seen entertaining the Covenant's advances, and he is one of the few people in Chernogrosk that the violent fanatics do not seem to target. The full nature of Olix's relationship with the Covenant is not fully understood.
