The Great Possession
The Great Possession was a nightmarish chapter in history, an era of paranoia and silent conquest where the Termantulex seized control not through war, but through subterfuge. It was a time when no leader could be trusted, no command could be certain, and no face was guaranteed to be human. Infiltrators walked among the highest echelons of power, manipulating entire civilizations from within, unseen and unstoppable until it was too late.
Across the ruined landscapes of civilization, Hives churned out abominations in the likeness of men, infiltrating governments, military ranks, and cultural institutions with soulless doppelgängers. What the world believed to be their protectors, their rulers, their heroes—were nothing more than puppets wrapped in stolen flesh, hollow beings whispering in borrowed voices, their words shaped by a will not their own.
When the truth was revealed, the world erupted into hysteria, executions, and civil collapse. Even now, long after the purge, whispers of hidden infiltrators persist, spreading fear that the Great Possession was not merely an event, but a cycle—one destined to repeat until all resistance is consumed.

The Termantulex, under the absolute rule of Leviathonn, engineered the Great Possession as an act of psychological and existential warfare. Abomatons—humanoid infiltrators of flesh and machine—were created as the ultimate weapon of subjugation, replacing key figures one by one with inhuman precision. Entire chains of command were corrupted before a single alarm was raised.
Each Abomaton, crafted with surgical perfection, extracted the DNA, memories, and essence of its victim, replicating them down to the finest neural impulse. Using Neural Induction, these infiltrators could weave themselves into society, whispering lies into the ears of the living, twisting reality to serve their unseen master.
The Silent Takeover
Selection of Targets – Leaders, strategists, warlords, and revolutionaries were systematically chosen, ensuring the Termantulex gained control over every seat of power.
Systematic Replacements – The real individuals were silenced, their identities devoured by Abomatons, who stepped into their lives seamlessly.
Manipulation of Events – Policies were rewritten, conflicts ignited, and civilizations pushed toward oblivion, all orchestrated by hands they never knew were guiding them.
The Final Phase – By the time the first suspicions arose, entire nations had already fallen. The world had been betrayed from within, its fate hanging by a thread.

The horrifying scope of the Great Possession was revealed too late. Using genetic tracking technology, a faction of Imperamen scientists uncovered the impossible truth—leaders, generals, and revered figures were not who they claimed to be. The revelation was a death knell for order.
The reaction was immediate and violent:
The Purge – Panic turned into bloodshed as governments executed their own, burning entire institutions to the ground in a desperate attempt to root out the impostors.
Mass Hysteria – Trust shattered overnight. No one knew who was real. Families turned on each other. Militaries disbanded. Revolutions erupted in the streets.
The Ghosts Left Behind – Even as the purge swept through the world, some Abomatons remained undetected, retreating into the shadows, their objectives unfinished, their silent war ongoing.
-
Though the Great Possession was declared over, its legacy continues to fester. Paranoia has become the backbone of governance, with rulers demanding constant genetic verification, neural scanning, and biometric authentication. Still, despite these measures, one question remains unanswered—did the purge succeed, or did the true masterminds simply learn to hide better?
Modern-Day Implications:
Endless Surveillance – Fear of another Possession has turned societies into police states, where even the highest officials are subjected to continuous monitoring.
The Shadow War – The idea that Abomatons still control hidden factions has led to secret wars fought in the dark, where assassinations and purges continue under the pretense of "security."
The Cult of the False – Some believe the Great Possession never truly ended. Entire generations may have grown up under the rule of impostors, unknowingly serving the Termantulex’s agenda even now.
