Sample text
Its only desire is to obey its masters and guard their sanctum, and while it sometimes exhibits an almost maternal protective streak, it defers to its masters’ judgment in all things. Secrets Ab Ia Mu is mystically incapable of recognizing it, but it is the instrument of Fe’s curse on Ab, Ia, and Mu. Members of any cabal the spirit serves become increasingly paranoid until they take actions that drive away or kill their allies. Once the members of the cabal alienate all their friends, they turn this distrust against each other.
Some even retain memories of their masters’ secrets after centuries spent guarding an abandoned sanctum. At the height of Atlantis’ glory, a cabal of three powerful mages wanted a spirit to protect their sanctum from the many enemies they had made in their rise to power. They didn’t trust the loyalties of any natural spirit, however, so they set out to create a new one whose only desire was to serve. They ruthlessly bound dozens of spirits and drained away their raw Essence. Atlantean law forbade such abuse of spirits, but the members of the cabal were powerful enough to silence any objections.
This, far more than longevity, held the Mastigos’ interest, and, mentally merging this potential with the soul-stealing power of the Tremere, she formulated a hypothesis. If she were able to locate one of the original Tremere vampires, perhaps with the proper magical ritual she could forge a rote that would allow her to gain the vampiric ability to consume the souls of other magi and add their supernatural might to her own. What happened next is largely a matter of conjecture, as the Wildcat’s carefully documented notes end with her fateful encounter with a newly reawakened Tremere who was doubtful of her theories but was willing to gamble on them for the opportunity to potentially live forever.
