#1 Oh no! The apocalypse is coming ANY DAY NOW and evil creatures are going to rule the world. For my own sake I'd better make a deal with the evil creatures so that I'm allowed to live.
#2 Ah ha! I've heard that it might be possible to bring about an apocalypse. As a villainous bastard I want to make this happen so I can revel in the pain and suffering.
#3 The empire burned my village! But I'm an evil mage who doesn't mind civilization. I'll join the scions just to fight the empire, and use my brilliant mind to keep them thinking I really believe in the prophecy.
Those are outlines, obviously without the depth you probably want. Why not look up scion PBFs and see what their roles are like? The fact is that all cabals are intentionally somewhat vague in their outlook so that not everybody has to be a cookie-cutter character.
If you're having trouble making a good role specifically for whatever cabal, try just making a role for the kind of character that cabal features (an evil mage, in this example). Then once you're satisfied, go back and tweak it to include something about the cabal. You might not end up with as cohesive a role as one designed completely around the cabal, but you'll probably at least get an interesting role that is compatible with the cabal.
