I went for a walk a little bit ago, it was dark and windy and wonderful. The Queen of Air and Darkness was close that night and my head was full of birds and my arms were full of knives.
Maybe I was more real and maybe I was imaginary, I don't think it matters all that much.
Poetic musings out of the way I was reminded of this fighter made by The Lovely Dark (reread it if you haven't in a while and if you have never read it please leave right now, I consider it to be one of the best written things on the internet frankly, and this whole post is basically just an excuse for me to look at it again) and I want to do something with it so I am going to combine it with the GLΔG cause I think its pretty darn cool (even though I have yet to play with it or anything like it in an actual game).
All of what you are about to read is untested, it also isn't "official", I don't know how much this actually fits the implied setting of The Lovely Dark but I hope the vibes are at least comparable even if the writing isn't.
The actual abilities from the fighter don't need to be changed so I will just list which abilities each template gives you rather than copying over the text that you should have already read.

The Full-Dark World
Have 3 of the 5 happen to you over the course of a single night: Witness a murder (not death but a murder, something raw and personal), Kill someone you hate or love, Watch the birds fly in the moonlight (their flight follows a pattern), Be betrayed by someone or something you trusted, have a nightmare (She will be in it, if you have met enough of the other conditions)
Gain The Full-Dark World, you can acquire all further templates in this class, unlike before they can be gained in any order
The Killing Moon
Get a scar, somewhere between dashing and disfiguring, from something you underestimated, then crush that thing till it is nothing but scrap, or rubble, or a red smear
Gain The Killing Moon
Butcher Bird
Kill 3 different people with 3 different weapons, after they are dead, disassemble the weapon, then disassemble the body, both may be done with as much precision as you deem necessary
Gain Butcher Bird
Death Song Of The Eumenides
Be hurt so much you will never be the same (you already have, haven't you?), hurt someone in the exact same way and realize it makes you feel good, or nothing, or hate, as long as it doesn't make you feel regret the Dolor will find you
Gain Death Song Of The Eumenides
Société Des Sadiques
Destroy a person important to this hateful world, someone who's soul is bright and warm and clear and most of all beloved, then do this to an object, and then to a place, those who are tuned to the wind will know that She favors you
Gain Société Des Sadiques
