Some would say that you should focus your wants, to better your chances of achieving them. The-Keeper-and-Company knows this to be a lie.

Description
History
The-Keeper-and-Company emerged in the First History, several years post-breach. They were once a mortal in the higher class of society, but they yearned for higher heights. The Breach offered a unique business opportunity, and they took it. They compelled their followers to die in their name, and this sudden action propelled them into the lofty heights of the Mansus. They primarily dwell in the city, and give favor to any particularly intrepid (or foolish) explorers.
Appearance
The-Keeper-and-Company shifts appearances rapidly, but if they do decide to meet a mortal in person, they typically decide to wear some variation of formal wear, be that a suit, or a dress. The one thing that remains consistent in their appearances is that they wear dappled wings on their back.
Principles
The-Keeper-and-Company is the enactor of desires. These desires may be unconventional, or perhaps even harmful to all parties involved, but they are enacted in any case. They work to introduce new desires in those that follow in their footsteps, and it is more than willing to fulfill these desires. For the right price, of course.
Worship
Cult
The-Keeper-and-Company ascended in the first history, where their followers consisted of the surviving members of their corporation. They have branded themselves "The Company", as they do not consider any other corporation necessary, and if anything, redundant. The Company has made their way to other histories by way of selling their wares in the City, however these products of power occasionally make their way to other histories. A group designating itself as 'The Company' also occasionally appears in other histories, not as another arm of The Company, but as a group worshiping The Keeper. These groups are quickly discovered, and integrated into The Company proper as soon as possible.
Mark
- Temptation: Desire: I've had a longing for strange savourings.
- Dedication: Desire: I know there is something I want. I will do what is necessary to get it.
- Ascension: Desire: I cannot bear it anymore. I must have it. This strange hunger is known to me as the Third Mark.
- Ascension: Desire: I have attempted to satisfy my hunger with the product produced by 'The Company', but it does not sate me. I know this to be the Fourth Mark. More.
- Ascension: Desire: My spending habits have gone out of control. It must be done. I have neglected my other duties, but they do not matter. What matters is the Fifth Mark. More.
- Ascension: Desire: I have achieved the Sixth Mark. There is nothing but the 'Company'. I realize what I now yearn for. To serve The Company, and to serve Her Hour, The-Keeper.
- Ending: This world cannot entertain me anymore. So, I leave it, for the cobalt embrace of the Mansus. There, I will do what is asked of me, and together, we will dominate this new world.
