[b]Faction Name:[/b] The Disciples of the Worm

[b]Alias:[/b] the Pale Masters, the Ghoul Lords

[b]Government Type:[/b] Mageocracy

[indent]The Disciples of the Worm are ruled by the Triarchs, three of the eldest and most powerful Noss'fyrat. Below them, the Chiurgeons direct the efforts of the other Noss'fyrat who inhabit Azoth Zul, and oversee the refitting of the Flesh Engines, the Butcheries, the Worm Pits, the Forges, and other long-forgotten machines of the ruined citadel. All members of the Disciples occupy a rank in a well-defined hierarchy, from lowly human Aspirants and servile, barely-infested Novitiates to the exalted Bile Priests, advanced in the mysteries of the Disciples' theology and the arts of blood magic and flesh-weaving. The Disciples lord over a great many slaves of all races, especially orcs and beastkin.[/indent]

[b]Faction Description:[/b] [i]WIP[/i]

[indent]In ancient times, it is said that the Disciples of the Worm pledged allegiance to Lord Daigon, serving him in his war against the pretender-god Justinian. The Dark Lord promised the disciples the freedom to pursue their black arts, their decadent religion, their relentless pursuit of arcane power and immortality free of persecution, and provisioned them with all manner of slaves and fodder for their twisted experiments. In return, the Disciples served Daigon, building an army worthy of the Dark Lord: breeding orcs and beastkin and trolls and all manner of foul monsters with which to fight the slaves of the pretender.[/indent]
