<h4>Beliefs</h4>
<p>The Castigian Cabal comprises individuals who worship, devote themselves, or follow (depending on their level of devotion) an enigmatic goddess known as Shar—whom even they themselves hold next to no knowledge about. To them, Shar represents the revealer of hidden truths and the patron of hidden wisdom, and to be the one who opened their eyes and exposed the flaws and hypocrisies of the world and its existing power structures. It was through her subtle machinations and manipulative words that the Cabal was formed. Their ultimate goal is to topple the existing power structure and replace it with their envisioned future—a future they believe to be fair and just, albeit one where they must hold the most crucial positions of power to maintain this supposed fairness and justice.</p>
<p>The Cabal firmly believes that the current system, encompassing both society and the world's workings, is deeply flawed and unjust. They perceive it as a pervasive corruption that plagues all. Many members of the Cabal harbor a personal sense of injustice, believing themselves to have been unjustly denied something they rightfully deserved. This denial could manifest as the denial of a prominent position, the struggle of a hardworking individual who remains impoverished while their superiors thrive in wealth, or any other situation where they feel the status quo denies them what they perceive to justly deserve. In their eyes, the current structure perpetuates inequality, injustice, exploitation, and widespread suffering, for all except those who created and perpetuate it. Only by first completely dismantling the current status quo can the construction of a new structure be built—one that is brighter, more just, and more fair. Through her masterful machinations, Shar has convinced the Cabal to place blame not only on those they perceive as upholding the current societal order but also on the very deities they worship. According to the Cabal's belief, society is seen as a reflection of the deities' wills and teachings. As such, the root cause of the festering injustice that permeates society is attributed to these deities. Consequently, the Cabal regards other deities, including the Diostri, as architects of the corrupt status quo.</p>
