Synthates
Once, all of existence (and non-existence) was wrapped up together in one mind, which we call the Omnul. Synthates believe that the apparent separate-ness of all the various Realities is a collective abomination, and are actively working for the return to Unity: the rebirth and rise of the Monoverse.
Some wish to start anew and try again; others, called Static Synthates, are the most rigid of this mindset and want to return to, and remain, One entity.
There are plenty of theories about how One thing became Many things, but the Synthates aren’t concerned about how it split apart, only that it should be put back together again as soon as possible. They believe that the Omnul never intended all this “creation” to be spread across creation, and is working to pull everyone back into ItSelf and resume its blessed state of singularity. Since every independent consciousness is already living on borrowed time, reason the Synthates, why not speed the process along?
They dress alike, speak the same language, and even require surgical adjustments for members whose physical parameters fall too far afield of their accepted norm. As of this writing, the fashion is a kind of greyish-purpular skin tone, three and a half eyes, six fingers on each hand ending in a sort of flappy pad, and around 6’ tall—anyone too tall is expected to give part of their mid-thighs to those who stand too short. They wear bright white robes to symbolize the separate visual frequencies rejoined.
The Synthates’ goal is to get everyone to join the Synthates. Should they succeed, they have not said what the next step might be, but reports have come in saying that they’ve acquired a storage unit in Crating which is quickly filling up with sewing equipment.
