Alien Intelligences

Far beyond even the wisest metaphysician's understanding of planar cosmology, the Far Realm crawl and roil with sheerest madness and paradox. Within this mirrored slurry of horror dwell strange and inconceivable mad intelligences. Some fools in the world seek their favor with fanaticism and more than a little of their own touch of madness, finding comfort that their own insanity is but a smaller reflection of a greater, titanic insanity on a cosmic scale. Occasionally small cults dedicated to these powers crop up among mortal populations, usually rising to a fever pitch before burning themselves out in an orgy of shared madness and abhorrent violence.
