Deceiver

Cant of the Deceivers:


 * 1) Lies before Poison.
 * 2) Poison before the Dagger.
 * 3) The Dagger before the Sword.

Deceivers are perhaps the most dangerous of all the Excrucians. A Warmain attacks and a Mimic betrays, but a Deceiver turns friend against friend, acting in stealth and silence. Deceivers are powered by the essence of Untruth: lies so convincing that Creation itself is fooled. As long as the universe thinks them Imperial, they will be Imperators; as long as the universe thinks them Noble, they will be Nobilis; and should the universe ever think them mortal, they will die as easily as any man. This is only rarely a physical disguise. Rather, the Deceivers cloak their spirits.
