As it seems there's little or no detail available on the Puppeteers,
I'll start making it up... but to avoid starting off wrong, here are
my initial thoughts for comment & criticism.
The Puppeteer Troops are commonly considered to be a form of
Trickster or Donadar worshipping subcult, but in truth predate both
those deities (Donadar even allegedly learned his craft from the
Puppeteers). Nonetheless, the deity whom they first worshipped,
Tylenea, died with most of the Celestial Court at the destruction of
the Spike, so in truth their worship is now directed through Eurmal
the Trickster, current master of the Illusion Rune. They shun the
trickster's other, less acceptable, traits, however, and are known
sometimes as 'Tricksters without Malice' and never as Fools. Their
worship is strictly of the powers of Illusion, and many claim that
Tylenea's death is of no great significance, as all of life and
creation is but a temporary thing, an illusion of the whim of
existance. The power lives on, and they can tap into it, entertaining
and enlightening the masses with their displays, and their attitude
that all reality is no more than illusion, and often less.
I intend to give them 2 Affinities (as an aspect/subcult of Eurmal):
Deception (Weave Flawless Tale, Suspend Disbelief, Convince)
Illusion (Using my Illusion ruules previously presented, there would
be a multitude of specific Feats of individual Illusions)
Secret: Swap Places (the puppeteer troops definately use this)
Other Side: The troops continue to wander after death
Just sketches so far, what do you all think?
