[QUOTE="Rechan, post: 4412010, member: 54846"] In this case, I gave a loose definition. The Paladin came from the "Order of the Dark Light" (his naming), and their cover is the "Order of the Crucible". I told the PC "Your superior had received a vision. It wasn't exactly clear; there was lots of burbling and writhing, but the gist was that the New Continent holds promise to Yog Sothoth. Your superior has tasked you with going there, to spread the faith, and see what can be won in the name of Yog." An abandoned city founded by worshipers of Yog Sothoth (Paizo's "Crucible of Chaos" could work here) in the middle of the jungle seems rather appropriate. Perhaps the Far Realms overlaps the city, a spot where the Far Realms bleeds over, but there are protective wards that prevent it from spreading beyond the ruins of the city. Maybe the place is held by Yog's enemies (Dagon, Demogorgon), or has some ancient texts and tech. Taking the suggestion from w_earle_wheeler, the order is partly academic, because it's difficult to hunt down those purged texts. The other part is... all too willing to venture into the Far Realms, to get "First Hand" experience, in hopes of visions. I really didn't ask. I imagine so. :) A paladin of freedom. I can work with that. ("Let me free you from the confines of your frail flesh." *stab*) [/QUOTE]
