<p>The Cabal prides itself on its pervasive influence throughout Marcandria and boasts an intricate web of involvement in every facet of society. They reassure themselves that they have planned for every eventuality and conceivable outcome. Because of this, even if a few of their endeavors go awry, they consider it inconsequential within the grand scheme of things. As they often say, when dealing with a vast tapestry, the pull of a single thread makes no difference. The Cabal seeks to convince its members that so long as they follow Shar's guidance to navigate the treacherous paths they tread, their envisioned new dawning with a fair and just society, where each member receives their rightful due, will inevitably be realized. The Cabal attributes most of their significant projects and endeavors to Shar's guidance, believing that she has revealed the best path toward their goals. The most devoted members possess unwavering confidence in Shar's guidance, as they believe her to be their faultless guide through the depths of darkness, leading them to the dawn of their envisioned future. After all, no being should know the path through the darkness better than the goddess of darkness herself (Though again, the Cabal are not entirely aware of Shar's true nature).</p> <p>The Cabal prides itself on its pervasive influence throughout Marcandria and boasts an intricate web of involvement in every facet of society.

<p>The Cabal is acutely aware that they stand little chance in reaching their goals should all the other influential factions in Marcandria decide to unite against them. They thus place great emphasis on maintaining secrecy, and go to great lengths to make sure their plans and schemes remain unknown and the organization's existence unnoticed. The acts they commit may cause a lot of reaction within Marcandrian society, but they always make sure that no evidence points back to them, and that there are no indicators that an event is part of a larger scheme. Maintaining secrecy is thus a goal in and of itself for the Cabal, one that they go to great lengths to maintain. The Cabal also strives to keep their adversaries divided and in conflict with one another. This aims tie down and expend their adversaries' resources, both to reduce the risk of discovery, and to prevent them from being able to interfere with the Cabal's schemes—be that accidentally or intentionally.</p> <p>The Cabal is acutely aware that they stand little chance in reaching their goals should all the other influential factions in Marcandria decide to unite against them.

<p>The Cabal constantly aims to recruit influential individuals from other factions, and often entice them with promises of prominent positions in their envisioned future to help persuade them. Recruits who believe they have been unjustly denied advancement by their superior are often offered their superior's place. Those who are approached but refuse to join the cause are either killed off or forced to cooperate through the use of coercion and threats. Anything the person holds dear, be that possessions, reputation, or loved ones, may be threatened—with the Cabal having both the means and a history of following through on such threats if necessary. They do have to remain careful though, as too much blood in too short a timespan could cause the other major factions to start investigating. The Cabal is in constant need of recruiting new members to expand their reach and influence, and thus always have numerous schemes ongoing that aim to either convince someone to join them as a faithful member, or force someone to serve the Cabal through coercions and threats.</p> <p>The Cabal constantly aims to recruit influential individuals from other factions, and often entice them with promises of prominent positions in their envisioned future to help persuade them.

<p>In contrast to the Cabal's aspirations, Shar, their enigmatic guide, harbors distinct goals. Discontented with the other deities' ploy to seal off the world from the realms beyond, thus rendering beings from those places, including the deities themselves, unable to directly influence the world, Shar seeks to exploit the seal's imperfect and deteriorating nature. Her aim is to create a significant breach in a location where she holds great strength—the Shadowfell. Through this breach, Shar intends to exert dominion over the world, causing it to fall into entropy and crumble under her sway. Unbeknownst to the Cabal, Shar views them as mere tools to be discarded when they are no longer of use. It is ironic that, just as the Cabal covertly manipulates individuals to serve their interests, Shar manipulates the Cabal itself to further her own agenda.</p> <p>In contrast to the Cabal's aspirations, Shar, their enigmatic guide, harbors distinct goals.
