Lionheart Factions Article & Screenshots

Reflexive's Eric Dallaire has written an article over at RPG Codex that details the Wielders faction in Lionheart. An excerpt to follow:
Long before the Inquisition assumed total control of Europe, the Wielders shared power with the Knights Templar and King Richard the Lionhearted. Their potent magic helped keep the dark forces from the civilized cities. However, a small group of scheming Wielders, unable to resist the temptations of power, took control of a large swath of Spain. Afraid of their growing influence, the Inquisition gathered their own forces and moved against the Wielders, initiating the bloody Reconquista. The battle lasted many years, but by 1275 the Wielders were driven underground. Defeated and hated, the Wielders never recovered their lost power.

Along with the article, they've also posted three brand new screenshots, so be sure to check it out.
