The Conspirator keeps to the shadows, whispering with others like her. How many conspirators are there? Who is involved? We never know. Those hushed whispers in the right—or wrong—ears can tear us all apart. Bring us all crashing down.

The Conspirator is the defender of Secrets. She guards them and the family they represent. It is her role to know the secrets and spread them as needed, whispering to just the right people at the right time.
