RoleChapter 5 Conspiracy Theories Added Wed Feb 1 00:16:20 2006 at level 1:Conspiracy and intrigue shroud the history of Thera from its origins to present day. Secret societies hoard hidden magicks and play kings of men as puppets. Shadowy cults and forbidden guilds rule with fear from the shadows. People scheme and deceive each other and themselves for a thousand different ends. With layer built upon layer of plotting and concealment for ages, no one could possibly make sense of all of it.
Meet a man who thinks he has.
Cabdru always had a limitless curiousity for matters that others considered settled or uninteresting. Most of the smarter fire giants were content to learn magic and put it to use setting villages on fire and creating general mayhem. Cabdru, however, was obsessed with the why. As a boy he had heard in passing the legend of the Teacher who had brought magic to the fire giants. Ever since hearing about it he was sought to understand such mysteries, such matters of history, find out who was behind them, and learn the mystery behind the Mystery. Because, of course, there always was a mystery behind another. Since no one he knew had the answers to these kinds of questions, he thought that they must be great secrets, even though the reality was that the other fire giants just didn't care.
Leaving his volcano and being exposed to the outside world, he found many more mysteries, things more alien that he did not understand. His imagination ran wild and paranoia began to consume him.
Strange Khar-Zhur trees were everywhere, enveloping him in an eerie orange light, but leaving others unilluminated. It was obvious they were marking him for arrest and torture by some shadowy group of secret police. The Coven whose conjuration magic was stolen during the Tailed Star affair clearly was still out there somewhere, using even more forbidden magic and plotting horrible things. The Blood Tribunal was on the take, allowing many citizens of their cities to be cut down without interference. Wild men in the woods sought to sacrifice simple fire giants such as himself to their dark and ancient gods, then throw others off the scent of their true plan by also butchering dwarves and starting fires. A mighty Empire only sent out two soldiers at a time to secure territory, obviously because the puppet masters that pulled their strings didn't really want that territory conquered. The game was afoot, the fix was in, and everyone was in on it.
There was only one way to get to stay alive and get to the bottom of things. Killing would solve all the problems. He would need to grab some of the conspirators, force whatever information he could from them, and then dispose of the bodies so as not to scare off others. He would need a place to put a lot of bodies and perhaps a small group of conspirators of his own. Someone would need to watch the watchers, and they would need to watch them with axes.
