	In addition to reasonably potent [[arcane magic\|magic]], Aleister also has access to armed and unarmed combat skills, as well as the unique offensive and defensive powers of a Centurion of the Night.

	Aleister sank into a numb depression, performing his duties mechanically until he made the acquaintance of a very different shape-shifter during one of his journeys. [[The Red Haunt]] introduced Aleister to the [[Scions of Irul]], in whose company he felt more at home than among his supposed Brothers in Shadow. While he understood the Fraternity would kill him if they discovered his dealings with the Scions, Aleister continued; at least among the Scions he was able to stimulate his mind, swapping lore. From context, it is clear that he was among the Scions who were ousted when [[Tressac]] seized control of the group.

	In [[748 BC]], Aleister received a missive from the Red Haunt, asking for his assistance in founding a new group. She made it clear that she wanted Aleister to speak on the nature of the [[Dark Powers]] and the [[Demiplane of Dread]] - secrets jealously guarded by the Fraternity. In return, Aleister would be able to join the Centurions' apocalyptic quest for [[~~Necromancy\|~~Cosmic Necromancy]] and ascension to power. In full awareness that doing this constituted betraying his oaths to the Fraternity, Aleister cooperated with the [[Fiend]], becoming a co-founder of the [[Centurions of the Night]].
