The Deathguard is an order of knights sworn to eradicate evil and corrupted undead, along with any who would deal with such vile creatures. The order was formed to destroy the line of Vol, and it built this pyramid-temple in Shae Cairdal as its first base of operations. The knights consider the Blood of Vol to be their greatest enemy and their greatest failure. Most in the order follow the custom of appearing undead by having skull tattoos inscribed upon their faces.
