The Devil's Due

=• INTRODUCTION •=

''Dark times call for dark measures. In every war there are people who are prepared to bargain souls, court monsters or unleash evil in order to win.''

''We are those people. Or maybe we were those people. Redemption is often hard won.''

''You want to know the truth? At some point, each of us makes a deal with the devil for power or whatever. Money, sex, or maybe our lives. Maybe someone elses. Maybe it wasn’t you that did it, but you-in-a-past-life, or one of your great-great-ancestors. Doesn’t matter. You still get to carry the burden. The stain.''

''But Gaia has a sense of compassion. Of second chances. Or maybe she’s just a stone-cold bitch and knows she needs monsters more’n ever now. So this time around, sweetling, you have to do more good than harm. One last chance. Don’t even think about the consequences, for you or for the world.''

''‘Course it matters what colours you wear. Your bosses will send you off on their agendas, but do you really think any of them will care about your dirty little soul? No? No. We understand. We’ve been there. Still are there. So come with us. One last hurrah before the world goes all to hell. We all have our secrets, sweetling. Get the job done.''

=• OVERVIEW •=

What is Devil’s Due?

Devil’s Due is a group of allied roleplaying cabals; it is a meta-conspiracy project about second chances for the Secret World MMO. The Devil’s Due project provides a platform for people to explore the dark, tragic, violent, adult, and taboo aspects of the Secret World with a group of like minded people, across factions.

We are loosely based on the Arcadia and Leviathan servers but move between them (and the other servers) freely. We operate 24/7/365 and are spread across multiple countries, cultures, and time-zones. Our primary language is English.

How does it work?

The Devil’s Due is, at its simplest, three linked or sister cabals within the Secret World, one for each of the three Factions (Illuminati, Templar, and Dragon). The three cabals share a common overarching theme (the ‘meta-conspiracy’), and are all co-ordinated through one website, and one in-game channel. The same base group of players is invited to have characters in all three cabals.

What do you do?

We tell stories. We are, primarily, RPers though will often team up for PvE and PvP excursions. You can expect:

2-3 planned RP events each month. Having a good, friendly, creative pool of people around to start casual RP. Encouragement, advice, and support in running your own RP events within the cabal. We want to see what sort of RP stories you come up with! A large, active, private, ad-free website for talking about the game, posting stories about your character, or collaborating with other authors. A group of ready-made friends for grouping up with for quests and dungeons. The ability to play your Dragon, Illuminati, and Templar characters together with the same group of metaconspirators.

How do I get involved?

We’re always looking for mature, creative, responsible and fun people. You are required to be at least 18 to play the game (according to the game’s terms of service) and you are also required to be at least 18 to join this metaconspiracy. Once you apply, the whole metaconspiracy is invited to review your application. If they like it, you're admitted to this website. After that point, you can contact the guild leaders to arrange to get your character(s) into the cabal(s) that interest you. There's more information on our recruiting page.

'Do I have to join all three cabals? Are all my alts going to get drafted?'

Absolutely not. We understand that people may want different things from each different faction’s RP. We encourage you to get your characters involved with the different branches of the Devil’s Due if that sounds fun to you, but you’re under no obligation to do so.

What do you expect from me?

We expect for you to exercise good judgement. We expect for you to have fun playing casually. We also expect for you to follow our code of conduct, to check on our forums at least once a month, and to play your "Devil’s Due” character(s) at least once a month. There are no mandatory raids or events; we understand you have a real life to live and that it’s more important than a game.

'You say you encourage "casual play". What do you mean by "casual play"?'

We all understand that Real Life comes first. We do not enforce play times, nor play volumes but do ask people to log into the forums and the game at least monthly to maintain their membership (unless they arrange for a leave of absence). We figure that logging in once a month isn't too onerous.

'But Dragons and Templars and Illuminati working together? Mass hysteria! '

The three cabals of the Devil’s Due are linked together by common understanding, and some shared principles. They are still Dragon, Illuminati or Templar and don’t all take orders from the same person, or from each other. No one Cabal is the foremost. It’s an association of mutual convenience and sympathy. After all, who better to understand the tragedy and horror of the path that has brought you to the Devil’s Due than those who have gone before?

I have questions - who should I contact?

Read the provided materials on our website. Hopefully that will answer most of your questions. There's more information about our metaconspiracy, our backstory, our cabals (Dragon, Illuminati, and Templar), our code of conduct, our roleplaying, and our recruitment. If you still have questions there's a contact form. Drop us a note and we'll be happy to answer your questions.
