Seekers

Those mortals that are consumed with the sin of seeking knowledge. Seekers refuse to accept the world as it were presented to them. They suffer from an ailment of lust for knowledge. It lives on the inside of their skulls, gnawing and scratching at the bone. The imperative to discover what which does not exist drives them to seek the Dark. In the outskirts of the dark they face incomprehensible visitors and meet other seekers on their path.

They form bands in their attempts to document and figure the system which governs the dark. In their delusions of grandeur they fail to realize the dark has no system of governance. Many cults have risen and fallen, their writings preserved in tomes collected by those that cannot read nor comprehend them. Many more cults exist still. They attract new seekers to their spheres of knowledge and indoctrinate them in their delusions of some grand scheme they unnearthed which only they can understand.

Seekers invariably demand power from their art. The source of this power must come from either the realm itself or its denizens. The Dark itself is benign. In its emptiness it allows for great feats of psychic power for the learned and experienced seeker. The Third eye, Mind Rape, Dream Invasions are some of the methods mastered by experienced seekers. They require careful guidance, patience and above all, dedication. A deal with a devil, on the other hand, only requires a certain combination of stupidity, desperation and arrogance.

///<They are divided further to four categories: those that know, those that teach, those that know and do not teach and those that know and teach.>

The rarity described above may not be a rarity of the affliction. Inoculation holds that the capacity was ordinary and was removed from the population by design, and that a seeker is a gap in someone's coverage rather than a person marked out.
