Curiosity killed the cat...

But at least the cat died knowing. I'm sure by now your wondering about the name. That one has quite a story tied to it. My uncle and I played a lot of MUD's (Multi-User Dungeons, the predecessor to the Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game [MMORPG]). In one of these various MUD's we established a secret society, or more precisely, the Collegium of Shadows. Since the day I threw the name at him, I have had a soft spot for it, a huge one in fact. To this day I continue to improve and develop the goals and purpose of the colligium, and we don't even play those characters anymore.
