Sairinites
Those that follow the demon Sairin are considered a splinter cell of heretics. Most of the followers of Sairin are Opsiannos.The Sairin Heresy are devoted to the destruction of the Astral demons and often plot the destruction of their stellar home.
Some of the most extreme of Sairin’s followers blind themselves so they can not see the terrible sun that house’s the demons that banished their master before he could reach his full potential.
Some of Sairin’s followers have begun construction on a star killing weapon on top of the mountain palace of Sairin. The plans were originally devised as a sort of mega-catapult imbued with magic.
Cynicusicians
Those that follow the demon Cynicus believe that the universe is not a creation of the demons, but the demons are simply the oldest beings in the universe. Cynicus’ follows call themselves the Cynnless as they have not known the power of Cynicus. To learn about the workings of the universe are cynns. These include the study of Magic, Physics, or Chemistry. Cynners are the scholars and priests of Cynicus.Many of Cynicus’ followers believe those with mental abnormalities are actually the blessed of Cynicus. Insanity is seen as the ultimate gift of Cynicus as he has allowed the insane to see the truth. These are called the Cyn-born or Cyn-touched.
