The High Cult of Akatem
Followers of Moros, the High Cult of Akatem has achieved something far surpassing other death cults - they have managed to change their actions into tangible power. Named after their founder Akatem Dreadshroud, the High Cult seeks to enrich themselves in the eyes of their god by killing in his name. Despite their stronghold secreted away in the Devil's Teeth Range, their agents have demonstrated near-incredible skills of disguise and infiltration, allowing them to place themselves at all levels of Aedan, Estalian, and Summer Shores society. Through this talent, they have been able to extort an unknown number of people for money and favours, under threat of death. As well, with their increased infamy, they have started to complete contract killings which have made them extremely wealthy, as well as the mere threat they pose has counteracted an uncountable number of plots against them.
The process to join the cult is shrouded in secrecy, other than showing a strict devotion to Moros. Scholars have debated mobidly what tasks might be required, however, it's merely over the details. Almost everyone believes that the requirement is to kill people, but how many? How important or personal do they need to be? Young or old? Rich or poor? Or is the god of death as impartial as he always seems to be?Feat
