Overview
The Cabal is one of the factions native to Croatoa. This all-female group of sorceresses never seems to leave the area and has been fighting the evil Red Caps for a long time. In City of Heroes, The Cabal range between levels 25 and 35 and only in Croatoa. Although found all over Croatoa, The Cabal seem to be based in Sunset Ridge. In City of Villains this group cannot be found.

Adept
Though their skills are minimal in comparison to those of their leaders, Cabal Adepts have learned to summon hot lightening into their fists.
