d100 Black Sphere Cult Maxims, Phrases and Epigrams





































The cult of the Black Sphere was formed by cults of the outer gods, materialist alchemists and the morose grey gnomes of the deep whose melancholia has made them hate existence. While mixing their magical arts they formed a new creed and purpose to nullify all that is or ever was.  

These maxims were chanted by the troops and arcanist scholars. They were engraved on gun barrels, sword blades, journals and on buildings. For the clone soldiers of the cult, these maxims gave them purpose. Unimaginative they may use these for code keys for guard passwords.

These are meant to be terrible bad guys and not admirable or sympathetic. Maybe their personnel might defect and be helped. The Cult use regular mind wiping and teaches this makes them more objective and serves the truth. Some memory loss may be from potions, machines, surgery, vat-grown alien monsters or psionics. Whatever is cheapest.
