• Embrace your Darkest Dears: Scarlet Fear encourages her followers to face and embrace their deepest, most primal fears. By confronting their nightmares and embracing their fears, her followers gain strength and power, becoming immune to the terrors that once held them back.
• Indulge in your Darkest Desires: As the goddess of Gluttony, Scarlet Fear encourages her followers to indulge in their deepest, most forbidden desires. Whether it's food, drink, or other vices, Scarlet Fear teaches that indulging in excess can bring pleasure and power.
