【FoC】宗·库山(Zon-Kuthon)信徒角色指南 
« 于: 2013-03-28, 周四 00:14:27 »
宗·库山

午夜领主

在亘古之时,现在被称作宗·库山的神祇在那时以另一个名字被人所知;度巴尔,莎琳的(与其共享一半血脉)的兄弟.由于忌妒姊妹的才能,他逃开了这一切,离开了巨环并前往那彼岸之外的彼岸.而在那里他遇到了一位怪诞的存在,并被它彻底的扭曲窜改.如今的他唯一的享受就是苦痛,仅存的快乐就是惨案和悲剧.心中曾充满创意欲望和爱情的他,如今心中的旋律乃由呐喊及巨痛所交织而成.他的信仰虽由折磨所架构,但不像其余的邪恶诸神,信众并不仅仅对无辜者施加伤害,他们更加喜爱对自身施加酷刑.他对信徒所承诺的,不外乎是一片由血海刀山构成的大地,住民在持续不断的被剥皮抽筋之时还能继续保持存活,让这苦难歌谣能拥唱到永远.宗·库山的阵营是守序邪恶,神职是黑暗、失落、忌妒和痛苦.他的领域是黑暗,死亡,毁灭,邪恶和秩序.而他的偏好武器是刺链.

Zon-Kuthon
The Midnight Lord
Many ages in the past, Zon-Kuthon was
a different deity: the god Dou-Bral, halfbrother
to Shelyn. Envious of his sister’s
talents, he fled to wander the spaces beyond
the cosmos, where he encountered an alien
entity who twisted and warped him. Now
his only joy is pain, and his only happiness
is tragedy. Where once lay a creator and
lover now lies a god whose music is screams and agony.
His worship is torture, yet distinguished from that of
many other evil gods in that his masochistic followers
focus more on torturing themselves than innocents. He
promises nothing more for the world than a chance to
see its inhabitants flayed alive, writhing in an eternity of
torment. Zon-Kuthon is lawful evil, and his portfolio is
darkness, envy, loss, and pain. His domains are Darkness,
Death, Destruction, Evil, and Law, and his favored weapon
is the spiked chain.

冒险者

有些人被自己所目击(或者遭受)的惨案所割裂的伤口是如此之深.他们因此失去了感受的能力(或者与此相反,那时所遭受的过于庞大无可逃避,就此持续到现在),只能以对自身血肉施加酷刑的方式得到慰藉.又有些人单纯只是心理异常,对自己所处的世界抱持巨大的恨意,又或者他只是对残酷大能抱持着幼稚崇憬.不管动机如何,那些跟随宗·库山的信徒信中毫无慈悲和同情;他们完完全全地无视道德、冷血无情.宗·库山的追随者被称作宗·库山信徒(Kuthites),而这个词汇在外界使用时,通常是伴随着诅咒出现,又或者是以恐慌颤抖的声调低语而出.对于午夜领主的群众而言,痛苦和娱悦不过是一体两面,而他们追求的就是让包括他们在内的所有人,都能自由的感受这二位一体的深邃懬阔.

Adventurers
Some people have been scarred by the things they have
seen, or by the things that have been done to them. They
lose the ability to feel, or they feel too deeply, and find
release through physical affliction of their flesh. Others
are simply sociopaths and madmen, full of hatred for
the world as they see it, or else decadent monsters with
a penchant for cruel fetishes. Whatever their motivation,
those who choose Zon-Kuthon as their deity are empty of
pity and empathy; they are utterly amoral and merciless.
The followers of Zon-Kuthon are called Kuthites, and
outside the faith the word is usually followed by spat
curses, or spoken in frightened whispers. For the followers
of the Midnight Lord, pleasure and pain are two sides of
the same glorious coin, and they seek to enrich themselves
and others by granting both freely.

职业

称呼宗·库山为自身上主的信众来自五湖四海,并且几乎皆由不同的理由才前来受膏.不管是苦难承载者或者施予者,皆有可能皆前来赞颂他的大名,成为羊群,前往那苦楚神殿中去学习他的癫狂悦乐.借由对自己施加伤痛来释放狂燥热血和战斗渴望的战士和野蛮人或许会称呼午夜领主为自己的主宰.然而在此同时,法师,鍊金术士,以及那些借由解剖刀来感受存在之秘辛,将内脏和肌肉‘展现’出来的学者也可能如此.吟游诗人会咏唱荒诞怪异的哀歌、僧院会以痛苦来作为追求启蒙的道路-对于宗·库山信徒而言,他的专才与自己的信念毫无关系.宗·库山信仰并不源自于琐碎的好处和方便,而是来自于恐怖、迫切的必要性.故那些实践此信仰者,皆能够基于先前的生活方式,将其转换扭曲为午夜领主的境像映照.

然而由于宗库山信众的狂热程度,宗库山教士(甚至宗库山普通信众)多数是由牧师等神圣职业所构成.虽然旁人往往会被宗库山信众所震慑,不可否认的,他们为了探究痛苦和得以「抽丝剥茧」所练出的外科手术技术的确异常精良.这让他们往往在战场「救治伤患」时,往往能达成一项又一项奇蹟.因此就算在手下千百个不愿意的情况,胃口较大的指挥官往往还是会乐意招呼宗库山信徒进入他的摩下.

Classes
Those who call Zon-Kuthon master hail from all walks of
life, as no two people come to the faith in the same fashion.
Those who have witnessed horror and those born to create
it both flock to this god, learning the insane pleasures to be
found in his temples of pain. Barbarians and fighters who
scar themselves and inflict pain to release their hottest
rage and battle lust might please the Midnight Lord, as
might wizards, alchemists, and other scholars who study
existence through the slice of a scalpel, laying bare the
flesh and muscle. Bards may craft stunning and grotesque
performances, and monastic ascetics use pain to focus
their meditations. Yet often, a Kuthite’s profession has
little to do with her faith—Zon-Kuthon’s worship is not
one of convenience, but one of horrible, intense necessity,
and thus those who practice it can find a way to twist any
lifestyle into a reflection of the Midnight Lord.
Because of Kuthites’ fervor, however, the vast majority of
Zon-Kuthon’s priests (and even worshipers) are clerics and
other devoted divine casters. While Kuthites are frequently
shunned by those outside the faith, their surgeon's facility
with both magic and conventional medicine—which they
employ to take victims to the greatest heights of pain—
makes them a wonder on the battlefield, where they can
“work” on the wounded in the guise of saving their lives,
and an unscrupulous commander might highly value
their unique healing abilities (even if his soldiers don’t).

目标

作为宗·库山信徒,你唯一的目标就是由自身出发,在世界上散拨苦难和折磨.虽然你的荣誉感如此萎靡扭曲,你还是会保护你的玩具不受外人伤害,并且会为了被你视做自身所有物受到伤害而复仇.你会建立起感受和感知的新前哨,吸纳他人进入你的新圈子,并且缓慢的向其揭漏你从痛苦之中学习到的真相.如果社会抑制人们的天生癖好(特别是与性相关的),你将此视作为天赐良机.你潜藏在让其中会员能够暗中尝试被限制住的爱好的隐密据点,鼓励他们更进一步.如果他们的天生爱好虽然被法律所限制但实际上不会伤害到任何人,那位什么不试着向更为极端的感知领域前进呢?你可能会勒索你的受害者,也可能会献祭他们,又或者邀请他们进入教会-如果你安排妥当,甚至可能做到以上三点.如果能力所及,你会激起壮丽的苦难海啸-既是为了苦难自身,也是为了引起旁人的仿校.

Goals
As a Kuthite, you want only to increase the suffering in
the world, starting with yourself. Your sense of honor is
atrophied and alien, though you protect your toys from
others, and will extract revenge if anyone harms those you
consider yours. You work to establish new outposts in taste
and feeling, drawing others into your circle and slowly
revealing the truth that’s found in pain. When a society
represses the freedom to practice one’s natural proclivities,
especially sexual ones, you see opportunity—you lurk
in the hidden establishments where their practitioners
can indulge such tastes and tempt them ever further. If
their natural states are forbidden by law, but are clearly no
danger, why shouldn’t they explore more extreme realms
of sensation? You can blackmail your victims, sacrifice
them, or welcome them to your congregation—perhaps
all three, if you plan carefully. Where possible, you create
great works of suffering, both for their own sake and to
inspire others to copy you.

特征

对此教会的信仰在多数社会中都必须保持低调和隐密.极少地点能够让你的教徽闪耀在空气中,故你必须时时观测你所预见的人物是否为同道中人.或许他们的衣着穿法极度不合身和紧束,要以插在皮肉上的针头来维持这种状态.又或者他们身上存在着永不痊癒的伤疤.他们的服饰为了隐藏血渍,或许会是黑色或者暗红色的,又或者是一身黑色皮甲,上头点缀著无数功能费解的肩带和挂勾.或者他们有着这个宗教的骸骨铁鍊邪徽烙印,又或者满身疮疤,又或者对可怕的事物抱持着不寻常的爱好.然而最常见的特征,就是包括穿刺在内的对自身身体所做的‘调整’.多数宗·库山信徒对身体裸露出来的地方所做的改造会尽量的不要超出社会容许范围.然而在衣物之下?那就是另外一回事了.

Identifiers
Worship in this church must remain largely hidden in most
societies. Few indeed are the places where your banner can
fly freely, and you must gauge each person you come across
as a potential ally. Perhaps their clothing is restrictive
or pulls strangely, as if they had fastened it to their flesh
with needles. Perhaps they have a wound that never quite
seems to fully heal. Their clothes may be black or rustyred,
the better to hide old bloodstains, and run toward
black leather with many straps and hooks of inscrutable
function. They might also have tattoos of the god’s spikedchain-
and-skull symbol, hidden scars, or an unusual
interest in the macabre. The most common identifiers,
however, are piercings and other body modifications, and
many Kuthites are careful to display slightly more of these
than are standard for the society they find themselves in,
while supplementing them with extensive modifications
in areas hidden by clothing.

热诚

有些人是搭便车者-他们只是想享受教会的名声以吓退或者骚扰他人,或者是用来正当化自己的卑劣癖好,然而在此同时还是害怕对自己身体施加苦痛,又或者仍然具有关爱的能力.他们带上了面具,然而同时他们的内心仍然流动着鲜血.下一阶段的虔诚是那些确实热中于施加苦难和折磨,但是还不到让它成为自己生活重心的信仰者.They do it enough that their choices seem exotic, and if they occasionally step too far over the line, who is to judge them?这群信众是教会加深信念和进一步灌输宗·库山教条的目标.他们是那以针头刺札自身并且以锯子来切割他人的虔诚者,之中许多都早已疯狂.

最后一种信徒是那完全活出宗·库山信念的真正信徒.那一有空闲就立刻制造伤口之人,那或许穿着和皮肤完全缝合无法分开之人,那持续穿刺和割裂自身并且保持伤口能够持续流血之人.他们以发明崭新折磨方式来排解空闲,制造器具用以塑造痛苦,并且以他人的皮肤作为衣裳.他们是那活泼耀动,将痛苦作为存活意义的狂徒.宗·库山所能要求的就只是这样了.这些群众持续地将自己的心灵和肉体向新的彼端超越,同时或许会以皮鞭和刀刃来教育他人.

Devotion
Some people are dabblers or run-of-the-mill fetishists—
they take on the trappings of this faith to shock or disturb
others or justify their own base urges, but still fear pain or
have essentially caring natures. They wear the mask, it is
said, but their hearts still bleed. The next level consists of
those who participate in pain and torture, but who do not
make a lifestyle of it. They do it enough that their choices
seem exotic, and if they occasionally step too far over the
line, who is to judge them? This group is a prime target
for further indoctrination into the faith. These are the
faithful who carry needles to prick themselves or
scalpels to carve others, and many of them are mad.
Lastly come the true faithful. These are the ones to
whom a wound is an opportunity, whose clothing
may be irremovably woven through their skin,
who pierce and scar themselves and keep
themselves bleeding throughout the day.
They invent tortures to wile away their time,
create devices to cause pain, and wear the skin
of others as masks. They are the leering,
capering madmen who have made pain
the centerpieces of their lives. Zon-
Kuthon asks nothing more than this,
that members of his congregation
continually push the boundaries of
their minds and flesh, and perhaps
educate others with whip and blade.

其他信仰

其他神祇的追寻者全是蛆虫,你对他们想证明生活具有意义和伟大目标的可悲尝试感到可笑至极.唯有阿斯莫迪尔斯的伟力值得你的尊敬,然而就算在这个例子上,也不过是不情愿的方便措施罢了.拉玛什图的信众或许会与你进行奴隶交易,但是你理解他们兽性般的疯狂远远比不上自己纯净超越的癫狂.虽然你的上主提供了他的姊妹特赦,你不需要因此就对其之信众采取差别待遇-甚至你正好热中于加工他们柔软的皮囊.

剧透 -   :
Other Faiths
Those who follow the other gods are
insects, and you scoff at their pitiful
attempts to prove their lives have
meaning and noble purpose. Only
the power of Asmodeus compels your
respect, and this is still an arrangement
of convenience. Lamashtu’s people may
negotiate with you for slaves, yet their
bestial madness is nothing compared
to your enlightened one. You know that
this life is a vale of pain, and that the next
one is worse. Though your god may offer
some amnesty to his sad sister Shelyn,
you need not extend that courtesy to
her worshipers—you may especially
enjoy creating a canvas with their
stretched skins.

禁忌

你热中在他人视做禁忌的行为,因此这个概念对你来说几乎毫无重要之处.在思想和行为上远离你的尊神会招来他的不悦.遵照他的箴言是那甜蜜的苦楚.如此简单,进一步的区分和话别都是豪无必要的.你惩戒那些挡在你路上之人,并且不期许从他们身上能得到其他的反应.

剧透 -   :
Taboos
You thrive on those actions others view as taboo, and thus
the idea has little significance to you. To turn from your
god in thought and action is to invite his displeasure. To
follow his precepts is sweet agony. Any further distinctions
are unnecessary. You punish those who get in your way,
and expect nothing different for yourself.

教会

教会不可反驳的信仰核心就是奈多那阴影笼罩之地,在此午夜领主的牧师们在帕格莱斯的阴影朝廷中把持高位.切利亚斯允许宗·库山教会的存在,只要他们在挑选并且折磨受害者时能够遵照切利亚斯法律,那就行了.贝尔克泽恩这片法律真空的荒野也是施加暴行的好地点,虔诚者无不对因为战争而毫不希奇的可布场景感到愉悦.在其他的国家(特别是Varisia,Irrisen,和盖布),宗·库山教会会以更加隐密的方式运行,然而仍然会以新奇的极端暴行来展现自身存在.教会并不存在统一的等级制度或者系统,每个单位皆以力量、忍受力、承受和施加痛苦的能力等等来挑选自己的领袖.各个教派的追求不一,并且皆会将这个信仰的某个侧面看的比其他方面来的重要.

此信仰的圣典是由一位疯狂的先知所撰写的阴影之叶.这份典籍的每一册皆由人皮作为封皮,有时甚至是来自于受害者的脸部.有些抄本甚至做到让每一页皆由干燥的人皮所致,墨水皆为暗红血渍

The Church
The undeniable center of the faith is shadow-haunted
Nidal, where the Midnight Lord’s priests hold
power over the Umbral Court in Pangolais.
Cheliax allows the practice of the Kuthite
religion, as long as its victims are taken in
accordance with Chelish law. The lawless
wilds of Belkzen are a place of atrocities,
and the faithful take pleasure in
commemorating the scenes of
grisly horror common to war.
In other nations, especially
Varisia, Irrisen, and Geb,
Kuthites operate far more
subtly, but they make their
presence known in terrifying
displays of creative cruelty.
The church has no central
hierarchy or ranking system.
Each cell selects its leaders
based on power, endurance,
the ability to withstand and
deliver pain, and so forth.
Temples’ needs vary, and each
values certain aspects of the
faith most highly.
The god’s holy text is Umbral
Leaves, written by a mad prophet.
Each of these volumes is bound in
human skin, sometimes removed
in a single piece from a victim’s
head so that the face is on the
front cover. In some copies, each
page is itself a rustling sheet
of dried skin, and the text is
written in human blood.

这个专栏系列和Adventure Paths后面附加的神祇介绍不太一样,重点摆在信徒角色.所以对宗·库山的历史、领域云云没有多加叙述.

翻译这个的原因是之前稍微了解了这位神祇的设定,我真的很好奇究竟有谁会去信仰他.....

翻完感想:真正的猎奇爱好者....
