Sabbatai's Apostasy
Word has reached our Court Title that Target Character, held in the Ruler Title's custody, has converted to Islam rather than face execution, a betrayal in the eyes of his/her most fervent believers, though a small number insist his/her outward conversion masks a truth only the faithful can perceive. What remains of the movement now splinters between despair, quiet apostasy, and the stubborn belief that the Messiah's path was simply more complicated than anyone first assumed.

outcome = neutral
historical_info = d009_late_minorities.2.historical_info The Ottoman authorities who arrested Sabbatai Zevi offered him a choice between execution and conversion to Islam, and he chose the latter in 1666, taking the name Mehmed Efendi. A small circle of followers in Thessaloníki and elsewhere followed his example outwardly while continuing to practice a syncretic version of Jewish ritual in secret, becoming known as the Dönme. Most of the wider movement's believers, however, simply returned to ordinary Jewish life, disillusioned but unconverted.
