Revolutionist

Born in the face of corruption and voiceless masses, the current rebellion actively shuns the values of the Citizens and seeks to oust the current government from its power. Watchful eyes and ears are everywhere, and as such those with a rebellious spirit must be discreet in their opinion, lest they risk banishment from Tasnal. Colloquially known as the ‘faceless’, the face of the rebellion is indeed hidden from view; not even members typically know who they are working with. With the price of treason so high, anonymity is guarded fiercely and it is not rare for members to completely garb themselves before meeting others. Meetings are always attended with full masks and identifying markings tend to be covered in order to minimize the chances of being recognized in the outside world. While this poses an inherent risk that unsavoury individuals may attend, ultimately most would prefer their plans to be leaked than their identities.

Due to the tendency of outspoken critics of the government to go “missing”, the rebellion has yet to form any true leadership. Older members that have attended more meetings tend to have a heavier voice in matters of importance, but otherwise there is no official ranking that has been established. Members attend meetings only when they are able to without drawing unwanted attention to themselves, and as such it’s rather difficult to predict the true numbers this dawning organization has. The constantly shifting bodies mean they are not strictly organized and are truly in the beginning stages of an impactful rebellion. More than anything they are opportunistic, seizing any time they can to sabotage and expose the corruption of Tasnal’s government.

Once a plan is solidified they must act quickly; it’s often difficult to gage how quickly word can leak out. Plans have been known to be mobilized within hours of being drawn up, and they typically use hit and run and guerilla tactics to inflict maximum damage and immediately disappear. Those within the rebellion communicate via a unique cipher that can be left in public areas and recognized only by current members. This cipher is composed of inconspicuous symbols that fail to draw the eye of the uninitiated, and is cycled every so often in order to protect those using it.
