Explaining all the mechanical details behind why there would be a centaur choking out a gnome and talking about why amazing treasure gets her killed would be long and boring, so you can enjoy it at face value if you’d like.

    Alright.

    There are player factions known as Cabals, each one has an item of great power. If you kill an enemy Cabal’s Guardian, you get that faction’s item of power. Bring it back to your guardian and the guardian holds onto it.

    The enemy faction can retrieve theirs by killing your cabal guardian, one of whom is the centaur shown here, and I always thought that since getting their hands on an item of great rarity and power usually immediately results in an armed adventuring party coming for their heads, the guardians would be strongly disincentivized to accept them.
