Numenera is a game published by Monte Cook Games. Its setting is the Ninth World, and this list has four rumours for that setting. The rumours, which are similar to the Hearsay that can be found in the official books, can be used as adventure hooks or as simple misinformation.

1. Being an Envoy of the League can be a dangerous proposition even at the best of times but recently it has apparently got even more so. There are rumours that Envoys are being deliberately targeted and killed all over the Steadfast, as if someone has declared war on the League.
2. The League promotes a message of cooperation, sending Envoys out to encourage communities to work together. Some claim that the League has a more underhand purpose, and that their true goal is to indeed create a league of communities, but one with the League itself as the overall rulers.
3. The League’s headquarters is the Palace of States in Mulen and is a grand affair, and the Orators regularly raise more funds to keep it in good shape. It’s said that some Orators have a tendency to funnel some of the funds raised to their own causes, and sometimes just for their own benefit.
4. The Palace of States is the headquarters of the League and is located in Mulen in Iscobal. It’s said that there is a below ground inner hall that’s lined with prior world metal sculptures of humanoids at least 9′ tall. There are rumours that the sculptures are not, in fact, sculptures, but living creatures of unknown origin who are the true leaders of the League.
