Khuurac Dor
It is an ancient cult that originates from centuries before the invasion of the Disciples of Chaos. Its other name is the Cult of Purple. Their main belief is worshiping the might of blood which binds all living beings together, and the god governing over it. There is only one status group within it—the worshipers. This group includes both individuals who worship the god and the ones that are his priests. The lack of a hierarchy is a characteristic for the religion and the absence of elites quickly attracts new followers. Rituals are conducted by alternating between members of the community. Since the religion is a typical “community religion,” its characteristic feature strong symbolism, and while animal sacrifice is practiced, members don't sacrifice humans or themselves. Knowing that you won’t be the next offering to a god always makes recruitment of new followers much easier. Everyone in the cult is closely bound to each other, like a family, forming a hermetic community where meddling in each other's affairs plays a crucial role. Gossip, informant activities, and mutual condemnation of inappropriate behavior are quite common within its members, although this probably has nothing to do with the mentality of its main followers. Probably.
Everyone wishing to join the cult do not have a particularly difficult task ahead of them. The ceremonial “initiation” of new brothers and sisters is straightforward and not very time-consuming. The initiate kills a small pest, recites a sequence, and voila—they are already a worshiper. This custom has made rats one of the holiest icons of this magnificent religion.
