Acolytes of the Astral
These are the studiers and collecters of the forribben knowledge of the astral plane and the arcane. On the surface this group looks like they are worshipping a satanic pantheon. While they are scattered everywhere, groups will focus in on major cities to convert others to their cause, or even sacrifice them for it.
Unlike the racist of H.P Lovecraft, these cultists are not immoral for their racial makeup, these cultists are as diverse as a high school in NY.
Culture
This cult is brutal and they see human life as disposal. The High Priest will ask strange commands in the name of the Old Ones and there is always a mood of distrust from leaders and the lower acolytes.
History
- Founded by a widow shortly after the disappearence of several men in the side adeventure. This was influenced by the seeming appearence of monstors beyond human comprehension.
Cosmological Views
Most members worship what they know as Space Gods. Worship comes from the idea that they are in control of the fates and do not really care much for the blip of human, and that if they do certain rituals they can gain a drop of their power to can their fates.
Higher cult members tend to know all the above, but also what can cause the prescene of a Old One. They contain the anceint texts and try to attempt to see the Old Ones in a attempt to have human comprehend them.

Granted Divine Powers
