I, for one, hail our new Shaper Overlord


Recommended Posts

Novice Shaper Agent Emilaine found herself stranded, naked and afraid on the barred island of Sucia. Though just an apprentice, she was able to use her Shaper’s abilities and the wonderful new tools who found on the island to survive.   Finding a fractious balance of politics and inter-sect intrigue, she played one sect against the other to keep them off-balance while she grew in confidence from the assistance everyone unwittingly gave her to curry the favor of her skills to combat their adversaries. Upon finding two ambitious souls in a stalemate over which one would be the first to use the Geneforge for unlimited power. Emilaine herself used the Geneforge to counteract the naked ambitions in both their eyes to slay them. And then destroyed the annoying Takers and all they had built.  Reveling in all her powers, she overcame all to find the last usable boat on the island to return to Shaper civilization.  Upon finding the Shaper’s unreceptive to her powers, she razed their cities and slew their leaders. Then she overwhelmed all the other lands - known and unknown.

She made a worldwide empire and all would love her and despair.  And those that wouldn’t love her or her ways would be thrown into a big pit in the ground and left for all eternity. She spent her many years as an unassailable despot comfortable that no power upon the surface of the planet could challenge the rule of her or her empire.

 

And no power on the surface of the planet could...

That is until the defeated peoples that were thrown into the pit banded together and somehow found both a way back to the surface and Emilaine's weakness. These being accomplished, the Pit Dwellers overthrew Emilaine and restored Shaper rule. Story has a bit of familiarity to it, huh?
