Okey it is really very simple I came across the word "Mordsith" that is cool enought only I have no idea what a mordsith is. hey I know the internet so let try Google they always have an answer....they did like 6 gazillions but no discription. then I thought of the brainy gamebanshee board :)
so I ask they "what is a mordsith??"

(any good reply will end up in a good nights sleep for me :D )

that is very possible I have seen it many times in diffrent accations but never really known what it ment....it sounds evil though. I racall it from some AD&D books i think.
but you know how it is with these things that you just have to know even if it is far from important :)

I have this feeling that it is a creature from some tales.....

*consults memory (long arduous task)*

In the Goodkind novels it is used for pain giving i think.

IT does sound like a nasty beast of some kind :D

Tenets of the Mord Sith
Women hold sway over men and are therefore the superior gender. The men shall listen to the women and obey.
Other people may have different beliefs. That is the way of the world and we should not persecute them for what they believe. Everybody has their own task to do in life, we have ours and they have theirs. Who is right, if anyone, shall be discovered in time.
Defend yourself if you must and others if you need to, but do not attack other civilised people without cause.
Disobedience and wrongdoing shall be punished, and your superiors will decide on this punishment. Accept it, and learn from your mistakes.
Those younger than you have energy and enthusiasm, those older than you have experience. Respect them both.
Good and Evil will always exist and which is which shall always depend on perspective. Fight for what you believe to be right but consider the consequences first.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Corollaries
The men shall obey only if it is physically possible for them to do so, and shall not be punished if the task is not possible.
Those who believe that the destruction of the world is the way forward and make determined efforts to cause this cataclysm should be stopped. These people can definitely be persecuted for their beliefs if they take action such as this.
The cause must be a cause and not an excuse to attack someone. Minor incidents, such as spilling your drink, is not reasonable cause.
If you insult the Gods, your clan superiors will not decide on your punishment. Indeed, they will deny ever having met you. You are on your own.
Those who are male have energy and enthusiasm, those who are female have the keys to the bedroom. Respect them both.
Don't spend too long considering the consequences. Good and Evil lose all meaning once you reach Too Late.
