The Cult of Orcus

[tface=fraktur][SIZE="6"]The Cult of Orcus[/SIZE][/tface]

"The majority of cults dedicated to Orcus are, in a way, predictable evils. They seek destruction for its own sake, they collect innocent blood to slake their lord’s thirst, and they possess his hatred for all life. Horrible, yes. Vile, absolutely."

• If you are a fan of gothic and macabre fantasy, then Orcus delivers horrific themes a'plenty. From profane rituals, animating the dead, consorting with demons and generally allowing a chance to play a morbid, ugly luntic without shame. The Cult of Orcus is making movements toward realising the grotesque goals as highlighted in the Prince of Undeath's dogma, so now is the chance to unleash the shakles and play a blood crazed berserker, a cowled and revolting Necromonger, or a creepy and death obsessed rogue - the list of concepts is endless.
• Induction is easy, simply find 'The Skull' through IG means and get instant access to Necromantic, tenebrous roleplay.

Dogma
Promise your soul to Orcus, eat of his flesh and drink of his blood, and through him you will gain life everlasting. Mercy is a luxury that none are worthy of; suffering and torment are the fuel that will empower Orcus' ascent. The worshippers of Orcus will overwhelm the world in a tide of undeath and even the gods will perish.

Race: Any (monstrous races can even find a place)
Alignment: Evil (chaotic preferred)
Class: Non Paladin, Non Druid

Cool take on a cult, and expertly written posters.

• The Cult of Orcus continues to grow. If you'd like to get involved with this concept, feel free to send me a Forum PM and I'll forward a little more detail regarding the group and how to find 'The Skull' in game. We're looking for more cultists to actively be involved in the worship of the Prince of Undeath, and to roleplay to bloody joy that comes along with it.
• Some people have expressed concern about the concept, worried that their character will not last long, being the victim of the gank squad bane of neromancer that is often established on the server, to that I say -
  

  re: 'What good is it to be a necromancer?'
  The attraction of playing something that will be pursued, hunted and opposed at every step. The thrill that you may become a villain to be feared, hated or respected. Surpassing the difficulty of playing a necromancer.
  
  That is what's good about it.

For anybody that wants to play an Orcussan concept, this should be playing on repeat in the background at all times.

[Lord Byron]

I listen to this before taking any test on University

The time has come again for The Cult Orcus to take a stab at overwhelming the the world in a fiery blaze of undeath and destruction.

With all the gods up for grabs by our good friend Dendar what better time for the Demon Lord's minions to try and seize some power.

Listen to above thread and once your blood is pumping feel free to pm me if you're interested in a high conflict plot with lots of exploring of the deathly arts.

Chaotic Evil is a preferred choice for alignment any any class really apart from Paladin/Druid. This would be a good opportunity  if you wanted to play a Pale Master.
