The Sorcerer Priests in charge of protecting and maintaining the compact between the Colossal Bee Hives and the human settlements are a brutalist bunch who perform their duties above all else with no regard for honour or fairness to their foes, for should but one hive fall, it would spell doom in the shape of a migration of whole populations through the treacherous terrain of the Jungle, as the protection the Bees provide with their mere presence vanishes the moment the Queen relocates to a distant territory.

As a consequence, hive poachers, honey thieves, bee hunters and the voracious fauna and flora that dare target the Hives are met with a swift and brutal response. Beekeepers don a wax moulded plate created from the very Hives’ produce, granting them a unique affinity over the Evocation arts, allowing them to call forth whole hosts of voracious man-sized vespids in defence of the hive and the settlement’s denizens.

Even when found without their host of venomous hornets, Beekeepers are not without the willingness to jump amid the fray and paint themselves with the blood and viscera of their opponents. Gaining one up on their foes by fighting in hazardous terrain or deep bodies of liquid where their Water Walking Boots and Wings give them the edge, they dance and weave around their prey like the very hornets they summon, striking at any weakness to slick their blades with the vitae of their enemies.
