<p>The Cabal seeks to control those who cannot be swayed through covertly instigating infighting or conflicts with other factions. By weakening adversaries or diverting their resources, the Cabal aims to usurp their positions or render them too preoccupied to interfere with their plans. Each of the major faction presents a unique scenario, due to organization and how deep the Cabal is able to infiltrate their existing ranks, thus requiring tailored strategies from the Cabal to achieve their objectives for each of these factions effectively.</p>
<p>Most of the Cabal's schemes aims to either increase the position of one of their members, or decrease that of one of their adversaries. This may refer to both the position and influence they hold, or the resources they have available. It could be as simple as securing their member a higher position in whichever other faction they are also a member off. It could also be bringing an adversary to ruin in order to open up such a position in the first place. All of these schemes aim to increase the Cabal's relative influence and available resources in order to achieve their overall goal of bringing about &nbsp;their envisioned future.</p>
<p>Individual members also have their own personal goals, which most often entails securing themselves as high a position as possible in the Cabal's envisioned future. A decent chunk of the Cabal's recruits thus initially join due to opportunism, with the Cabal perpetually engaging in schemes to persuade new recruits into becoming truly faithful and committed to the Cabal's cause.</p>
<p>In contrast to the Cabal's aspirations, Shar, their enigmatic guide, harbors distinct goals. Discontent with the other deities ploy to seal off the world from the realms beyond—thus making beings from these places, like the deities themselves, unable to enact direct influence upon the world—she aims to exploit the seal's imperfect and deteriorating nature to inflict a great breach to a place where she is strong—the Shadowfell. She aims to use this breach to exert dominion upon the world: to make the world fall to entropy - to crumble and succumb, leaving only disorder, darkness, and loss, where all are ultimately forced under her sway. Shar aims to use the Cabal to help her make this breach. Shar holds no love for her servants in the Cabal, seeing them as little more than tools to be discarded when no longer needed. It is ironic that, just like they covertly manipulate people to serve their interests, so does Shar manipulate the Cabal to serve hers.</p>
