<p>The Castigian Cabal is comprised of individuals from diverse backgrounds across the entirety of Marcandrian society. Members can be found in various positions, including nobles, merchants, artisans, and individuals from other factions and organizations. Membership in the Cabal is an additional commitment that individuals undertake alongside their existing roles and positions. A noble will continue to fulfill their noble obligations, and a mid-ranked member of another faction will carry out their duties within that faction without relinquishing their responsibilities. Their value to the Cabal lies in utilizing their existing influence and resources to further the Cabal's agenda. They strategically leverage their positions to subtly manipulate events and people in favor of the Cabal's goals. </p>
|
||||
<p>The Castigian Cabal can generally be divided into three groups:</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>The actual Cabal members themseves, who have accepted an invitation into the organization and is partaking in their schemes. They have typically joined after the Cabal's promised some specific reward that the member will receive once the Cabal's reached their goal usurping the positions of power in Marcandria, to bring the nation under their control. This promise could be a title, political position, a position in another faction, land, or wealth. The promise can also be non-power based, such as promising revenge on someone the member holds a grudge over. Cabal members hold the titles of Veiled Initiate, Vailed Magistrate, Veiled Hierarch, and Nightseer, creating a hierarchical organizational structure.</li>

|
||||
<li>Those the Cabal has coerced into cooperation, typically by threatening their lives and livelihood, as well as the lives and livelihoods of those they care about. These are typically people who denied an invitation into the Cabal, or are people in key positions which the Cabal seeks to control. The Cabal is very thorough in their handling of these, quick to follow through on threats when there's any sign of disobedience, and always making sure they maintain control over weaknesses – things the person holds dearest – to make sure they are kept in line and do the Cabal's bidding.</li>
|
||||
<li>The servants the Nightsinger has sent to aid </li>
|
||||
<li>Servants sent by the Nightsinger to aid the Cabal's endeavors and assist where necessary to ensure the Cabal's goals are met. These are Shadowsworn Concalians, loyal to the Nightsinger, and are referred to as Shades and Veiled Enforcers by the Cabal. Veiled Enforcers act as the Cabal's muscle, performing services such as assassinations and security measures. The Shades perform surveillance and intelligence gathering, and additionally act as the Cabal's information network. Communications between Cabal members goes through these Shades, with a system set up so that each Cabal member, and each Shade, only knows the minimum information about other Cabal members, typically limited to each member only knowing exactly what they need to fulfill their role. The Cabal knows very little about the origin of these servants, not even what they are or whether they have motifs beyond assisting the Cabal. For the Nightsinger, these servants are a way for her to subtly steer the Cabal, with the Nightsworn Concalians that serve these roles having been given their own promises by the Nightsinger for fulfilling these roles (General motives for the <a href="/HBW/Eirus/Concalian-Empire/Concalian_Factions/Nightsworn_Concalians">Nightsworn Concalians</a>, as well as their motives for assisting the Cabal's endeavors, can be read about on <a href="/HBW/Eirus/Concalian-Empire/Concalian_Factions/Nightsworn_Concalians">their faction page</a>.).</li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
<p>The actual Cabal members, particularly those with the title Veiled Magistrate and upwards, will typically also have servants or mercenaries working for them. Depending on the situation, these may be kept entirely in the dark regarding the Cabal's operations, acting as a convenient front to avoid suspicions. They are alternatively given a very limited insight into that particular member's endeavors, being given generous pay in return for loyalty, and for not asking unnecessary questions. Those in the latter group are also rather openly told that any lapse in loyalty or secrecy will be retaliated against harshly. These servants, and the Cabal members themselves, are fully made fully aware that even the slightest betrayal or lapse on secrecy is punished harshly, with the Cabal having no qualms with murdering entire families and burning their holdings to the ground in order to avoid being exposed publicly.</p>
