==Desperot Entity== | |||
The Desperot Entity is a hypothetical being responsible for hallucinatory effects on the planet's surface. The being was probably a non-corporeal explorer of the corporeal world. Attempts on the creature's part to communicate with humanoids were partially successful at best. For example, it organized the planet into tiers, capitalizing on the mining infrastructure set up by the humanoids. In some tiers it projected chroniton fields that caused neurological activity in the human brain, thus producing elaborate and often frightening hallucinations. In other tiers it created more pleasurable experiences. The latter tier resulted in the organization of an isolationist hedonic cult among Desperot colonists. This cult was organized around a political figure who retained the title of colonial administrator but rebranded it simply "Administrator." | |||
===Administrator=== | |||
Administrator was the official title of the leader of the hedonic cult that sprung up around the pleasure tier of the Desperot Entity's communication attempts. Administrators tended to promote a doctrine of isolationism, refusing to allow the colony to communicate with outsiders for fear that the fountain of pleasure they'd found in Desperot's subterranean vaults should be discovered and exploited. Of course no one on Desperot was aware of the true nature of these pleasant underground caverns, seeing them as strange religious sites at which personal revelations and spirituality could be explored at the expense of all other concerns and cares in one's life. | |||
