Known individually as Alecto, Tisiphone, and Megarea, the mission of these three creatures is to keep evil individuals from straying from the path of utter damnation.[1]

Nova Vaasan legend maintains that the furies were born of three vain daughters who wandered into the Mists demanding the respect, and seeking the adoration, that each thought she so richly merited.[2]

Descriptive Text

"Call them the Kindly Ones," the crone muttered. "At that there can be no offense. They have names, aye, but naming calls, and they must not be called. They seek you already; all those who walk in darkness and then turn to the light are their lawful prey. Beware the Iron Three, the Implacable, the Avenger, the Disputatious, and if they find you...only then...must you hail them."

She scrawled three words in Darkonese script on the paper. Alecto, Tisiphone, Megarea. "Do not name them unless they find you," she repeated, putting it in my hands.

-Eumenides, from "Twelve Tales of the Macabre", Jean Lafolie[3]
