Online:Order of the Waking Flame

The Order of the Waking Flame

The Order of the Waking Flame (also simply known as the Waking Flame or Dagonists) are a cult dedicated to the Daedric Prince Mehrunes Dagon. They are determined to acquire their lord's Four Ambitions, and will kill anyone who get in the way of their goal.

In The Deadlands, the cult has entered a tenuous alliance with the Ruinblood Daedric clan, as they both work on studying and making use of the cataclysts to create Incarnates in honor of Mehrunes Dagon.

"Lord Dagon will know our dedication." "The lord of bloodshed will rule over all existence!" "We will kill them all!" "This one loves the smell of your blood." "This one honors our lord." "The Dark Brotherhood is nothing compared to Dagon's might!" "For Dagon!" "Fall, lesser beings! There is no place for you in the new world!" "A new dawn breaks! Die!"	"Search every corner, every chamber! They must be here." "Find the Ambitions!" "Search everywhere! Leave nothing unturned." "Once we find the Ambitions, nothing will stop us."	"I hope someone does try to sneak back here." "The high priest wants us alert." "Glory to Lord Dagon!"' "Dagon's fires light our way." "Lord Dagon has blessed our holy mission." "I feel the fire of Dagon burning in my soul!" "What an honor to be selected for this duty." "Be on your guard. The high priest expects trouble."	"Did you see all those fancy outfits? Prancing peacocks, the lot of them." "Did you know Councilor Vandacia was a high priest? I didn't know that." "Ever want to see if you could beat a Dremora?" "Don't slouch. If Councilor Vandacia sees you, you'll be the next one on the altar." "A sacrifice? That seems … excessive." "So, what happens after all the death and destruction?" "I look forward to taking part in the ceremony." "The order is my home."	"Lord Vandacia promised a great reward to the one who delivers him the Ambitions." "Check the bodies of the slain! The Ambitions may be feigning death." "It has begun! Look, we are in the Master's realm!" "Look. The Prince's mortal minion has claimed the first of his prizes."	"We can make use of this place again. Xigira will make it so." "Xigira lured those fools so easily. A little gold does wonders."

†Uttered by Xivilai or Dremora allied with the cult

The Cauldron

The Waking Flame cultists in The Cauldron occasionally speak while idle.

"Never could I dream of such gifts as these!"

"Only the finest heartwood for my staves."

"Just don't make eye contact and they won't hurt you."

"Behold the majesty! Such an honor to be in this place!"

"All around us, his power grows."

"These potions take forever to blend, but they pack a punch."

"A delicate veil separates us, soon torn apart."

"I wish we could just get this over with already!"

When you engage them in combat, they might say:

"They found us!"

"Inconsequential bugs!"

"You shall not interrupt our work!"

"You think you can best us?"

"Taste our Lord's power!"

"More ^fiends?, coming for blood!"

The Dread Cellar

The Waking Flam cultists in The Dread Cellar occasionally speak while idle.

"Cower before the Waking Flame!"

"Don't let the Crimson Oath act like our betters. They are brute killers, nothing more."

"I never aim for anything vital. I like to watch them writhe."

When you engage them in combat, they might say:

"Finally! I can burn someone!"

"Burn for Dagon!"
