Lore Question: The Cabal


Agent White

What exactly are their motivations? I've been thinking about it and I just can't figure it out. In almost all the missions I find them in, I find them tormenting or torturing other beings of Croatoa, but then suddenly we are helping Katie Hannon...

The whole Croatoa situation is convoluted. But, IIRC -

The Cabal are the remnants of the original Croatoa settlers that dissappeared. The Redcaps came, I don't remember how, and tortured and killed all the men folk. The remaining women banded together for survival and revenge, and began learning their painful magics.

Basically, the Cabal are supposed to be 'good guys,' but they've been trapped in a war with dwindling number, and no way to replace them. This leads to many of the cabal feeling justfied taking what they need/want from the current Croatoans. And (again, IIRC) if they ever loose certain members who act as their moral core - most notably Katie Hannon - then they really will become no better then the things they are fighting.

...

Dang, I think I really need to rerun the Croatoan arcs...

they have no background :/



Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.

Yeah, pretty sure that could be updated a bit.
