Despite February's prominence in the game, she's not the leader of the Council; their master is December, although nobody seems to know much about him. March was also briefly part of the game and appeared to have been a lot friendlier than the ruthless February. However, that iteration of March was likely killed by [[the Haunted Doctor]], who had been hired to do it by the rest of the Council. If so, the current March's personality is unknown, as members of the Council are still very mysterious figures, for the most part."

"Some call them the dynamite faction, but they're very far from united. Socialists, anarchists, foreign agents: only their hatred of the Masters unites them."[1]

Most Revolutionaries oppose the Bazaar and the Masters, though this group... isn't really a group.

The Calendar Council[edit]

The most organized group of revolutionaries in London is the Calendar Council - though even they don't get along in all aspects. Its members, named after the months of the year, are for the most part plotting and planning for their end goal, the Liberation of Night. The philosophy behind it is spreading across the Unterzee and up to the Surface, and predates the Council itself.[2]

Past Revolutionaries[edit]

Related Factions[edit]

Some other groups have desires to upend the status quo of the Neath, the world, or the whole of the Is. They have some ties to the Revolutionaries, but don't share the goals of the Calendar Council or most of the street-level revolutionaries; they do not appear preoccupied with the Masters or Night at all.
