Lore: The Void Order & Nyx’arh Assassins
“When one thinks of the Oblivion, hordes of Voidlings and other unnatural creatures come to mind. Dear child, the only thing that is certain in that ratchet place is the law of the strongest. You can see it in their actions, you can feel it in your bones. But not everyone in Oblivion agrees that their way of life is how it should be…”
For the Oblivion, there is only one way of advancing in this world - through evolution. However, when it comes to the ways to achieve that, not everyone is on the same page. Most of the Oblivion creatures will, while feeding, absorb the essence of their prey, and with it, their genes and their knowledge. After all, that is how it’s been done since the beginning. But there are some that believe the only real way to advance is through mastering their skills. For them, that is the profound way, not by stealing knowledge from others.
The Void Order is one such group. Its members have dedicated their lives to the honing of the assassination arts. Most creatures, even those in Oblivion, are not aware of their existence. And neither will their targets be until it’s too late.
Nyx’arh Assassins are the elite assassins of the Void Order. To become one, one must dedicate their life to the perfecting of the craft, but no matter how proficient they are, until they earn the honour of severing the connection to the hive mind, they will not be bestowed the entrance. Hazzerin is the commander of this elite order and gets his orders directly from the Overminds. After all, their sole mission is to eliminate the threats to the Overminds. At least, that is what the Overminds think… Hazzerin established a secret order within the Nyx’arh, hidden from the Overminds' gaze. Their mission is to launch an attack against the Overminds and end their rule over Oblivion. But Hazzerin is cunning. He will not start the coup until the time is right…
“The tyrants will oftentimes meet their end by the hand of those they firmly hold in their grip. But then again, usually, such risings are drowned in blood, even when their intention may be right… Who knows what the future holds for the Oblivion…”
