Ritual of Death

Harness the power of the end to fuel the cult's beginning.

The Ritual of Death represents one of the three sacred paths available to the Cult Leader at the base of their operations. It is a metaphysical power system channeled through the Sacred Altar, allowing the Lamb to harness the energy of mortality itself. Unlike the Faith or Life trees which focus on belief and growth, this path acknowledges that sacrifice is necessary for true devotion.

Lore & Background

This power stands in stark contrast to the nurturing aspects of the Life tree. While some followers may fear this path, others find peace in knowing their end serves a divine purpose. The energy harvested here does not just provide material wealth; it alters the spiritual state of the remaining flock, binding them closer through shared mortality and the awe-inspiring authority of their leader.

Reader's Guide

The Ritual of Death is accessed exclusively through the Sacred Altar located in your cult base. To utilize this power, you must first unlock the ritual tree by completing specific trials and performing initial ceremonies at the altar. Once unlocked, you can invest 'Sacrifice Points' earned from offering followers to gain permanent perks. These upgrades often provide immediate resources like gold or mana, or they may alter how your cult functions over time. This path is wielded solely by the Lamb. It requires careful management of follower morale and numbers, as utilizing these powers can reduce the size of your congregation while increasing its potency.
