Tartarians
The Tartarians have no formal worship, only an alliance of convenience and mutual grievance since the first Gnosis. They were beings wronged by the Great Tutelary Gods in the age of myth, bound and tormented in the Underworld. They have since managed to escape their old bonds with the confusion caused in the Gnosis, and found common cause with the Draykon and Vila whose old patrons the Olympians no longer answer their prayers. The Tartarians offer infernal power while demanding only one payment in return, revenge. There is no need for worship so long as their clients destroy monuments to the Olympians, slay their cannibal priests, and desecrate their temples whenever able.
