The Cult of Morr
The priesthood serving Morr, God of Death and Sleep, the Dream Master, is a holdover from imperial times. When the Empire turned from the Nine Gods to embrace the Light of Amon, the priesthood of Morr remained to usher those who had entered the realm of death on their final journeys.
In addition to presiding over death, these priests are masters of dreams and omens.

Structure
There is no known hierarchy to the Cult of Morr, except that wherever one finds a shrine to this god, there is a triad of priests, with many servants who are themselves indistinguishable in rank. It may be that there is an internal hierarchy known only to the cultists themselves, for they are forbidden to share their sacred mysteries with the outside world. The Grand Temple of Morr in the Eternal City, with its extensive underground catacomb-necropolis, is served by nine of these priests. One of them is designated Speaker of the Dead, but it is not known whether this priest holds any power over the other eight or simply speaks on their behalf.
Public Agenda
The Cult of Morr presides over the final moments of life, ushering those who are facing death on their journeys and invoking the rituals that ensure they have found a secure place within Morr's Dominion. They are foes of undead, and do not even support spells such as resurrection, raise dead, or reincarnate.
