[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 1737646, member: 2067"] Murder. Rampage. Blood, guts, and a revelry about it all. Simply because [i]it's not expected[/i]. Think of constant battle. Think of a disregard for other's physical and emotional well-beings. Think of destruction, obliteration, consumption. Think of psychosis and of sociopathy. Take those childish things and turn them macabre. That on-the-spot game turns into a game of "hunt down and kill the little lost child and see who can make the most pretty wreath out of his intestines." That ability to find things that poeple lost turns into a malicious joy in bringing up past pains. Don't go too overboard -- they're not doing these things because they're evil, they're doing these things because no one expects them to. But make those pranks and public insanity have a grisly angle, and you've got a sect no one wants around. To a certain extent, 2e has a "Chaos Good, Law Evil" complex,....it's mild, but it's there. The Harmonium are authoriatarian thought police and the Xaositects are harmless pranksters just out to have a good time. But Bacchinalien revelry isn't harmless...it's not just drunk fun. People get killed. Society gets inverted. Security dissappears. And no one is safe. [/QUOTE]
