They are respected, and offerings are made to avert their wrath, but there are no churches to their glory or priests who revere them. Some are holdovers from earlier pantheons, while others are dark and dangerous entities of godlike power but known origin. Their followers are the witchfolk as well as certain rare individuals who seek power and wealth without regard to the cost. Occasional cults to the Dark Ones will spring up, preying on the deluded or the desperate, but it is rare for more than a handful of cultists to know the true nature of the being they serve. |
