Powers in Conflict
Four answers. One war.
Each faction believes it is the only thing keeping reality from collapse. Each is partially right.
Control through suppression.
Hunters
Soldiers and inquisitors of the human world. They contain the veil through dampening, doctrine and force.
Survival through emotional consumption.
Vessels
Beings born beneath reality. They feed on feeling — some with reverence, some with ruin.
Removal of all instability.
Ascendants
Doctrinal absolutists. They believe the world will only know peace when feeling is finally finished.
Preservation of balance.
Veilkeepers
Neutral mystics who weave the membrane between realities. They serve no side — only the structure.
