Black Cloak Society (unofficial)

The Black Cloak Society is a the name of the Society of the Black Cloak as it is usually referred to by the fans, and many of the villains of the King's Quest Games are included as members of the group in the fan games and fan fiction.

Membership
Romancing the Stones added some non-canon memberships;


 * Morgeilen (The Father)
 * Hagatha (Sister)
 * Caldaur (Brother)
 * Manannan (Brother)

In addition Mordack is referenced as as Brother of the group.

Other fan fiction such as the Revenge of the Black Cloak Society have included these characters as part of the society;


 * Dahlia (Sister)
 * Lucreto (Brother)
 * Lolotte (Sister)
 * Malicia (Sister)

In the story Shadrack is the leader of the society (both called Brother and Lord). His leaders were known as the inner circle and were seperated into three levels (based on the status and power of the members). The upper level of the inner circle included Manannan, Dahlia, and Malicia. the middle level of the inner circle included Hagatha, Mordack, and Lolotte. Since they showed little magical prowess, Lucreto and Abdul Alhazred were members of one of the lowest levels of the inner circle.

Baba Yaga is also mentioned as being the sister of Hagatha, but it is unclear if she is a member of the society or not.

Other possible members of the Black Cloak Society may include: Harlin the Malevolent, Count Dracula (his black cloak inspired his conceptual replacement Caldaur's inclusion into the society), Karn Megiddo and Telgrin.

In Romancing the Stones, Hagatha had asked Angelina by letter if she wanted to join the their secret society due to her magic prowess, but was later denied membership because she stole Hagatha's nightingale which was the main ingredient in a youth potion that they both wanted. Angelina was presumably killed by Hagatha, while Graham was hiding in the basement of the antique shop.

Manannan had sent a letter to Hagatha discussing the plans of the Father, and how they intended to fulfill it.

In Romancing the Stones, the members of the Black Cloak Society call themselves Brothers and Sisters. The Father is the term that Morgeilen gave himself to denote his leadership of the society. Hagatha has a black cloak within her cave, and in a note to Angelina she mentions that black is the dress code for the community she belongs to. Lavidia mentioned that Caldaur used to practice magic, and hints that he was part of a society where his black cloak meant something to them. Caulder later admits to having been a member of the society. Later on Hagatha, and The Father discuss he is still a member of their group, and he is ordered kill Graham. Later on Caldaur would terminate his membership to their brotherhood, upsetting Hagatha and The Father. In the final scene of the game, he is no longer wearing a black cloak.

The fan fiction story, King's Quest IX: It Takes Two to Tangle attempts to explain history behind Shadrack, and more about the Black Cloak Society as well.
