Cult of Kosmos
General Info
Faction Name | Cult of Kosmos |
---|
Overview
Originating in Greece during the Peloponnesian War, the shadowy faction is made up of individuals with influence in various fields such as politics, religion, and economics. Each member of the Cosmos Cult operates under an alias derived from the Greek pantheon, further adding a veil of mystery to their identity and actions.
Like the Chaos Puppeteers, the cult uses the Pieces of Eden, ancient and powerful artifacts, to enslave the population and bend the course of human history to their will. Manipulating events from the deepest shadows, they create a grand show where people are just puppets dancing to the tune of these unseen puppeteers.
The Space Cult is strongly opposed to faith, their strict ideologies clashing again and again. They see the creed's mission of peace and freedom as an obstacle to a new world order in which the creed reigns supreme.
As you explore the intricacies of the Assassin's Creed universe, Cult of the Cosmos challenges your beliefs and makes you question the very essence of power and control.
History
The cult was a multifaceted and insidious group that sought to manipulate the progress of humanity for their greatest gain. They thrived on chaos and saw it as an essential tool to achieve their goals. Their reach crossed all imaginable boundaries, penetrating politics, war, commerce, and religion. At first glance, the Cult of Cosmos was divided into several branches, each led by a sage. Unknown to many, the sages answered to the Grand Master, a mysterious figure whose identity was revealed only to a select few within the Cult.
Their covert operations were eventually threatened by the rise of Cassandra, a mercenary of Spartan origin, during the Peloponnesian War. As he began to unravel their vast web, the cult members saw their once infallible kingdom put to the test. The group's downfall began when Cassandra set out to break them up after discovering their role in the tragedy that befell her family. Despite the cult's eventual demise, echoes of their covert operations, manipulative exploits, and chaos remain an integral part of Assassin's Creed history. This faction shrouded in darkness was the harbinger of some of the most turbulent seismic shifts to occur in the Greek world.
What can you take away from the history of the Space Cult? In essence, it is a reminder of the silent wars fought behind the scenes of history, spotlighting the figures who manipulate events to achieve their goals, leaving indelible traces in the sands of time.
