The best Kolat are those that don't even know that they're helping the organization.

And here I thought that the best Kolat is a dead Kolat...

The Dream Sect, certainly not. But who could protest the goals of the Jade Sect? Besides which, I really don't see how, despite the horror of mind control, they're really any less honorable than ninjas, a tool of their opponents. And, it really depends on who's being mind-controlled. If it is someone who otherwise would relentlessly uphold the (from a Kolat perspective) unjust Celestial Order, I am not sure that such magics are worse than just killing them.

Kazehito is for rooting out and killing the Kolat!
OCC: Think it would be great for the game just a matter of time... for all the coding & what not... Kolat and Anti-Kolat Scorpion Spys vs Kitsuki & other Magistrates

Oh ho ho. How the Scorpion and the Unicorn rally so strongly against the Kolat. Apparently the sting of the fall of the Shinjo and the burning disgrace of Kachiko are not easily forgotten. Myes. Dance puppets. I mean. I'm watching some bunraku performances. NOTHING TO SEE HERE! <.<

The kolat are interesting that if presented in a different way, could quite easily have a brotherhood sect - afterall old school kolat were supposed to be about man making his own path and destiny - something that shinsei himself wanted I believe. However, I think this principle has been corrupted by the kolat into something akin to bond-villan or lex luthor - ie, trying to gain as much power and influence as possible at the cost of what they origionally wanted (to rule themselves without celestial interference) as several sects set their own agendas. Large crime organisation vs money making vs power broking vs taint hunting vs anti-heaven.
Or at least that is my view of it. And no, Kuni Kaymar will not be kolat, believing quite firmly in the kharmic cycle of life as he does.

The goals of the Jade Sect and the Dream Sect aren't different, they just have different divisions of responsibility.
And really, is "destroy the Shadowlands and Bloodspeakers" such an enormously unique goal? If that's what draws you to the Jade sect, why not one of the dozens of other groups that are into that?

It is not a unique goal, but the difference is that, from this character's perspective, anyway, Fu Leng, the Shadowlands, the taint that, even if most don't realize it, stretches throughout the Empire, is just the most odious of the evils of the Kami overall. He sees them not as different in kind, but only degree.
