Notable Individuals

Members of this cult sacrifice their identity for the cult itself. Its members could be anyone - strict allegiance to the cult is not something that is required, leaving many to suspect that large amounts of the congregation maintain their identities outside of the cult's base. Despite these beliefs, anyone may be anyone else while in uniform. No identifying questions are allowed to be asked or answered, at least while the uniform is still being worn.

The uniform in question is formed of a substance known as The Ichor - which could be considered the cult's leader.

Magic

Nameless spells tend to be those which strip away one's sense of identity.

The cult bolsters its numbers by baptizing individuals within The Ichor. Once submerged, the black slime remains on them for as long as they wander the halls of the Nameless, in the form of a skin-tight suit. There is a belief that The Ichor maintains itself by the very act of suppressing the identities of those who are clad in it.

Another belief among some is that The Ichor subsists off of the individuality of the members, much like how the members benefit from the feeling of being anonymous.

Aesthetic

Each calls themselves Nameless, and all members wear some variation of the same black rubber uniform - this is not simply a physical costume, but a part of The Ichor - a living creature. Distinguishing features are minimal, and only each member's vague body shape can be seen - no colors, markings, or identifying details remain.


Lair

The cult's lair is in the Rumen.
