Vengeance, plain and simple.  Maybe there's another pack of plutomancers out
there that these guys want to take down.  Just think of some petty,
individual goals and blow them up into a grander scale.

Other RPGs are great for this kind of thing; mining concepts do misdirect
your players.  You can have a nihilistic, gnostic worldview as in Kult: what
we see as "the world" is only a thin veneer of reality, constructed by some
tyrannical deity to keep us subdued and prevent us from tapping our true
potential.  Magick is the capability of some people to manipulate the prison
known as reality, whereas the Avatars are those people who are slowly
attaining contact with people who live outside the prison, but who can only
be known through their 'projections' to the prison's interior.
