astercrash: Did anyone notice how quickly the internet turned into a Lovecraftian horror scenario? Like we've got this dimension right next to ours, that extends across the entire planet, and it is just brimming with nightmares. We have spambots, viruses, ransomware, this endless legion of malevolent entities that are blindly probing us for weaknesses, seeking only to corrupt, to thieve, to destroy. Add onto that the corrupted ones themselves, humans who've abandoned morality and given up faces to hunt other people, jeering them, lashing out, seeing how easy it is to kill something you can’t touch or see or smell. They'll corrupt anything they think could be a Vessel for their message and they'll jabber madiy at any who question them. Their chittering haunts every corner of the internet. They are not unlike the spambots in some ways. Add on top of that the arcane magisters, who are forever working at the cracks between our world and the world we made. Some of them do it for fun, some of them do it for wealth, others do it for the power of nations unwise enough to trust them. There are mages who work to defend against this particular evil, but they are mad prophets, and their advice is almost never heeded, even by those who keep them as protection.
