混沌醫師 - 虛無

「我們不醫治肉體，也不解放靈魂；不貪戀生，也不避諱死。我們尊崇『存在』本身。」
——混沌醫師慕榕

「存在是虛無的。」——當某個存在無意中產生了這樣的思想並引之為箴，就會奇妙地踏上由Ⅸ執掌的命途，接受從遙遠虛空某處來自星神的無意義瞥視。這一瞥通常引來兩種結局：一者自此頹唐，真正成為虛無的存在，被稱為「自滅者」；第二者則被瑰麗的星神神性所傾倒，不約而同地產生一絲好奇，使他們成為了「混沌醫師」。

混沌醫師們秉持著懸壺濟世的信條：即如果能向Ⅸ證明存在並非虛無，便能從未知的巨大黑潭中將這巨大而孤獨的生靈解放出來。這一心願近似悖論，人力幾不可成，但混沌醫師甘之如飴：因為在察覺到生命的無價值一瞬間，那從遙遠星海中投來的瞥視，令他們產生了對虛無命運的徒勞反抗之心。

Doctors of Chaos — Nihility

"We do not heal the body, nor free the soul. We do not covet life, nor shun death. We honor existence itself."
— Murong, Doctor of Chaos

"Existence is nothing." When an organism has this thought and applies it as a guiding principle, it begins to walk on the Path ruled by IX and receive the meaningless glimpse of the Aeon from some distant void. This will usually have two outcomes: 1) The organism will devolve and truly become nothing, becoming something called a Self-Annihilator. 2) The organism will be captivated by the magnificence of the Aeon, thus becoming a Doctor of Chaos in their spontaneous curiosity.

Doctors of Chaos uphold a creed of saving the world: If they are able to prove to IX that existence is more than nothing, they could free that large and lonely soul from the depths of the void. What they try to prove is a paradox, and it cannot be done by mortals, yet the Doctors of Chaos seem to enjoy trying — Because the moment they perceived the worthlessness of life, that glance from the distant cosmos inspired within them a futile desire to revolt against meaningless destiny.
