Church of Myrkul
The church of Myrkul, also known as the Gray Ones, or (disparagingly) Fingerbones, was the predominant organization dedicated to the worship and veneration of the Lord of the Dead, Myrkul.
It was not a popular faith in the world, whose members were often looked upon as secretive, morbid loners, who were obsessed with death and enjoyed seeing fear in others. While that might have been the case in some instances, they were dedicated to the care of the dying and deceased.
Myrkulytes viewed death with profound respect and took great care to help those who were dying feel as comfortable as possible,[1] tending to their last wishes, presiding over funerals,[2] and serving as undertakers and caretakers in cemeteries across the Realms. https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Myrkul
