How to Join

• Location: Nexus
• Steps

 1.  Go to the Nexus
 2.  Find Goth
 3.  Learn Siglaryn well enough to speak a few words.
 4.  Find Xar
 5.  Say "I want to prove my worthiness."" in Siglaryn
 6.  He will give you a vial of ink and a bodkin.
 7.  Find the statue in the center of the Nexus courtyard.
 8.  Draw rune on statue
 9.  When you draw the rune on the statue you will end up in a room with a sartan.  I can't 
     remember his name at the moment.
 10. Attack him.  He deals mainly magickal damage that I know of.  So magickal resistance 
     helps a ton.
 11. When you defeat him he'll ask for mercy.  Attack him again.
 12. He'll say something about he see's where your heart lies or something and then dies.
 13. Touch sigal
 14. Find Xar
 15. Say "I will never forget what the sartans did." in Siglaryn
 16. If your specs meet all the requirements then you're in.  Either way you don't have to 
     fight the statue again if they don't. Just fix them and do Step 15 again.

Weapons of Vengeance

  The Weapons of Vengeance are mensches who have proven their worth to Lord Xar
  and so are privileged to serve him, being gifted with a Patryn name and a
  heart rune worked by Xar himself.  Weapons in good standing are permitted many
  privileges among the Patryns of the Nexus and, with proper service, a standing
  nearing that of true Patryns.  The purpose of a Weapon of Vengeance is, of
  course, to find and destroy the Sartan race and deliver the universe to Lord
  Xar's dominion.

  Weapons of Vengeance have a communication channel, accessed through the
  commands 'weapon' and 'assoc', and can also access the
  communication channel shared by all those with Patryn runes, 'sigla'.

Specialization

I'm actually guessing here. I would have to make a new character to get the exact specializations. So if you know for sure what they are please update this

Requirements

• Siglaryn - Intelligence degree I
• Rune Lore - Intelligence degree I
• Killer Instinct - Perception degree I
• Pain Tolerance - Willpower degree I
• Discipline - Willpower degree I
• Hardiness - Constitution degree I
• Cold tolerance - Constitution degree I
• Heat tolerance - Constitution degree I
• Tenacity - Willpower degree I
• Lack of Weakness - Intelligence degree I

Which gives a 3 x Int, 3 x Wil, 3 x Con, 1 x Per, total specialization points required

Note that Xar will apparently not admit members with less than 100 willpower.

Members of this association are forbidden to specialize in Empathy, which means you can't join if you do have it specialized and trained above 40. Introspection may not be specialized above degree I.

Access

Weapons of Vengeance get a ton of specialization access, but in a round about way. Some you get from just being in the association, the rest you have to train your Rune Lore up in order for the specialization access to open up. I'm going to split them into those two categories.

Association Granted Specializations

Rune Lore Based Specializations

To get Varn to introduce supernal durability after joining Weapons of Vengeance you need:

• Rune lore skill above ~103 (spec 2) unlocks SD specialty access of 2
• Rune lore skill > 135 (spec 3) unlocks spec access of 3 (Varn trains up to his maximum of about 60)
• Rune lore skill above 195-199 (spec 5) grants spec access 4
• Rune lore skill above 215 (spec 7), unlocks spec 5 (Erasmus trains SD up to spec max)

Custom Weapons

Being one of Lord Xar's Weapons of Vengeance also allows one to have a custom runic weapon. More information is located here.

Restrictions

You say, >>> I want to prove my worthiness <<< in beautifully-accented Siglaryn.
Xar states, "So, you think yourself worthy to gain our trust and serve as one of my Weapons of Vengeance?  High aspirations for a mensch." in 
Siglaryn.
Xar looks scrutinizingly at you.
Xar's gaze seems to penetrate into the depths of your soul.  As his searching eyes survey your mind, you realize that it would be impossible to 
hide anything from this man.
Xar states, "As a drake Ranger, you could not become a soldier by joining the Weapons of Vengeance, sir." in Siglaryn.

Ordo Ignis Aeternis are forbidden to join this association.
