Every culture has its religious zealots and social nonconformists, and the Pleoqs were no different. Not everyone honored the Demiurge and paid respects to the Demiurge’s counterpart, the First Half. The Maze Cult was one such faction. Its members believed that a trickster-hero named Ixbal was the true entity behind creation, and that Ixbal used the disguise of the Demiurge to make and unmake the solar system, based on divine whim. The members of the Ixbal sect believed that the war with the C2s was their god’s anger made manifest, and only by subverting modern society could the cultists appease their deity. The Ixes, as they were known, sought to deliver a course correction to the Pleoq way of life by meddling with their longest-held tradition. The Ixes disinterred and reburied the dead in the incorrect places.
The impact of this rearranging of the dead was profound. The Ixes were considered terrorists by many Pleoqs, as the Arrur and the Chifra moieties had always been buried separately, in specific places, according to the oldest tradition of their religion. The Demiurge’s decree was violated every time the cult of Ixbal removed a Chifra body from the Land of Graves and deposited it in the Arrurs’ Sepulcher City. Most Pleoqs believed that the souls of those not properly entombed would be torn apart during their journey through the afterlife, long before they were permitted to rejoin the original creator, the First Half.
In the final days of the war against the C2s, the Pleoq authorities no longer had the resources or motivation to arrest and prosecute the Ixes, so grave-switching ran rampant up until the End Times, when Ixbal finally destroyed all of creation. Of course, all of creation was not destroyed, and now the PCs can deal with the aftermath of the Ixes’ weird religion. After death, most of the cultists — having not received a proper burial — were transformed into undead who use mournful songs to confuse and demobilize all within earshot.
Undead Horror: The Land of Graves is extremely dangerous to explore. Some of the dead have not found easy rest, and they’ve clawed their way up through the dirt. They now roam freely as undead horrors.
