The Church of Ecstasy

The “state religion” honors the life of the body and abhors the corrupted spirit world. Essentially a secret society.
Tier: III
Hold: Strong [1]: 282
Turf: The Sanctorium grand cathedral in Brightstone. Many other smaller temples across the city.
Characters: Elder Rowan (leader, devout, resolute, visionary). Preceptor Dunvil (arcane researcher, unorthodox, obsessive, enigmatic).
Notable Assets: A large treasury of tithes from citizens. Extensive arcane and occult libraries, workspaces, and artifacts. Many cohorts of acolytes and hollows who enforce the will of the Church’s leadership.
Quirks: Zealous believers volunteer to be hollowed to “become purified.” This was once common among the ancient cult of the Empty Vessel, which preceded the Church. [1]: 286
