The '''Sisterhood of the Sightless Eye''' are a closely organised guild of women sometimes referred to as '''{{iw|Rogue rogues}}''' and are highly skilled archers. Their home is located in [[Rogue Monastery|a monastery]] in [[Entsteig]] guarding the pass between the [[Western Kingdoms]] and the East, and the [[Aranoch]] desert.
==Background==

The sisterhood is shrouded in mystery amongst the local people, and not very much is known about the organisation. The sisters employ a religious/military structure and is at least to some extent interested in gathering monetary riches, although this might be the goal of individual sisters rather than the sisterhood itself.
===The Great Eye===
The religious (and as it seems: the primary) side of the sisterhood is led by a High Priestess ({{iw|Akara [[Akara}} ]] in [[Diablo II]]), and presumably lower ranked priestesses, that worship the [[Great Eye]], of which the organisation most likely is named. This religion, which likely part of Eastern philosophies, helps the archers to develop an "{{iw|Inner_Sight inner-sight}}" and the Rogues have built a massive [[Rogue Monastery|monastery]] presumably in its honour.
This innate sixth sense that all sisters seem to possess allows them to send a stream of arrows at an opponent, each fired with a seemingly careless precision. It also allows them to sense trapped fixtures, and aids them in attempts to disarm these traps as well.
===Military===
[[File:Kashya.jpg|thumb|right|[[Kashya]].]]The actual power within the sisterhood comes from the military branch, which has a Commander ({{iw|Kashya [[Kashya}} ]] in Diablo II), dedicated scouts and presumably regular archer warriors. Friends of the sisterhood, are welcome to hire sisters as [[mercenary|mercenaries]] for just causes.
The marksmanship of the sisters is rivalled only by the [[Amazon]] archers, and the bows they create from the pine, spruce, yew and ash grown in the Western Kingdom's nutrient laden soil are renowned throughout [[Sanctuary]].
