Overview
The Carnival of War is a circus-based faction who are aligned with the Resistance in Praetoria. They are a faction of the Carnival of Light which believes that immediate action must be taken against the Talons of Vengeance no matter the cost, rather than building up Carnival forces for an overwhelming assault, and they have pulled in what remains of various broken groups including the Praetorian versions of the Midnight Squad and the Legacy Chain. Their de facto leader is Cerulean, a former member of the Midnight Squad before it was decimated and drafted into the Carnival of Light.
Their Primal Earth mirror is the Carnival of Shadows.

Attendant of War

They were once followers of Vanessa DeVore.
Powers
Lightstaff Bolt Ranged Lethal/Negative, Med Dam +KB

Shimmering Smash Melee, Minor DMG(Energy/Smashing), -Heal(Foe)
You bash your target with your staff. This attack deals minor energy and smashing damage, but recharges quickly and has a chance to reduce your target's ability to be healed for a short time.
