The Thirteen Conspirators

There are thirteen models of conspirators.

There are many copies.

And they have a plan.

Information about the conspiracy that has been provided by Xavier Birdstaff, obtained from an unwilling conspirator:

There are thirteen mages in the conspiracy and three "others". These "others" are not of this plane of existence, and they represent their more powerful masters.

Each conspirator only knows two others. Although they seem to meet at a particular (known) island location on occasion, they never divulge personal knowledge about each other. Additionally the conspiracy is organized into groups made up of three unacquainted conspirators, and each group is given a task upon which to work and research.

Known Conspirators:

The guy we tracked down and captured (name?): One of the Visers was a conspirator. Conspired with the Ice Witch and a powerful mage from a distant land. Birdstaff went to investigate the powerful mage. It appears that he killed the Ice Witch because she was going to endanger the conspiracy.
