So, I recently got back from a rather long car ride, in which I binge played four different Assassins Creed games. Beside the point I think the series is phenomenal and still one I regularly return to play every so often, I had the thought for something. Basically, bringing a semblance of that to Chaos, primarily the idea of the Templar Order. Now, I know it is a terrible idea to mix franchises, and this idea alone will turn a lot of people away, but I kind of want to try and see what can develop. There are Star Wars groups in legends, namely the Star Cabal, who attempted to do things similar to the Templar, so I hope to use those as a basis for the idea.
For the idea itself, it will basically revolve around a few people coming together with the same realization, the current trajectory of galactic affairs is unsustainable. The endless wars, invasions, genocides and rampant corruption will lead the galaxy to a single, inevitable end. This group agrees to work together to try and influence galactic affairs behind the scenes. Be that trying to stop wars, redirecting the efforts of galactic powers, or even potentially small scale sabotage or raids to try and achieve their goals, this group will work to grow and increase its power and influence.
What this idea offers to other factions is a narrative opportunity to fight against a secretive organization, pulling strings behind scenes that members and factions can write against, or with in certain circumstances. A group that can theoretically be anything, do anything could serve as an interesting opponent to write against in the long term, and even create covert plotlines where writers have to work together to root out the members of the organization and reveal their motives before it is too late.
For writers interested in the organization, the narrative can be whatever you want it to be. Perhaps your character is the survivor of some big conflict, and is seeking a way to try and bring such wars to an end. Maybe your character believes themselves better than the average individual, and should see themselves in power. Or possibly, the paycheck the organization offers is just too big a thing to ignore. Characters could join for a variety of reasons, and work together to create a group that is ever changing and developing in its motives, means, and actions.
If you would be interested or have any ideas, please let me know!
I have made a coolish looking flair if you join.
