The Remnants are primarily lead by Karcists who are descendants of the Klavigar or powerful Sarkites from the original founding members.

			The Adytites originate somewhere in central Asia where a monument was being built on the backs of thousands of slaves. One of these nameless slaves unearthed something beneath the monument that they were intended to build and then die for. Beneath the dark temple and beneath the earth, this slave came face to face with something unimaginable. Emboldened by the power of a deal struck, this slave chose a name for themselves; Iūn, which meant 'lowly' and 'wretched'. They raised 4 Klavigar and led a viscous rebellion against their slavers until they took the temple for themselves, naming it 'Adytum' — a word that meant 'Paradise'. But Paradise did not last. War pounded on the walls of their young city, the Adytites cursed to never know peace. Soon, that war would swallow Adytum and Iūn whole, forcing the Klavigar to give their lives so that some could flee the city. Adytum fell with Iūn at the epicenter and none left to tell the tale of the details of those final moments.
	The Empire was originally formed after a slave of the Egyptian Empire known as Iūn would lead a slave uprising against the Egyptians and the early followers of Nyarlathotep. It fell after a catastrophic war which led to the deaths of the Klavigar and the Bronze Age collapse.

	Many 'Sarkic Cults' formed from the ruins of this Empire, establishing a sour reputation for the ways of 'Sarkicism' as many of these splinter groups were responsible for disasters and monsters across history. The Adytite Remnants consider themselves to be superior to these 'imposters' and actively hunt them down or force them to bend a knee to the Remnants.

			===== Introduction to the Cathedral =====
			The Adytite Remnants arrival to The Cathedral was initially shrouded in secrecy, stirring an displeasure within those holding a distaste for the Adytite's methods. The R'lyehian Order, a mysterious organization worshipping Cthulhu, agreed to an alliance with them. Their collaboration was christened as the 'Pact of Red Dreams' — An agreement and set of regulations to determine the Adytite's allowances within The Cathedral and the protections afforded to them by The Order.

		⚫	Despite an official alliance, there were mixed opinions within The Order. Some believed the Adytites did not belong there, shunning them or turning a blind eye during raids on The Cathedral targeting the Adytite's cathedral wing. Others choose a path of acceptance, believing the flesh sorcerers were necessary for the well-being of The Cathedral and The Order's own goals, particularly in fending off the growing threat of the Brotherhood of the Black Pharaoh.

	Many battles were fought, the raiders constant attacks toward The Cathedral did not succeed thanks to the joint efforts of The Order and The Adyite remnants, specially thanks to our Hunter's Black Lodge troops aiding in the frontline, working hand-to-hand with the Drowned Guards and Leviathans alike.		Many battles were fought, the raiders constant attacks toward The Cathedral did not succeed thanks to the joint efforts of The Order and The Adyite remnants, specially thanks to our Hunter's Black Lodge troops aiding in the frontline, working hand-to-hand with the Drowned Guards and Leviathans alike.

			This new beginning did not come peacefully as raiders targeted the weakened defenses of the Cathedral Sarkic Wing. With the aid of The Order's Leviathans and Drowned Guards, the Remnant's military force — The Hunter's Black Lodge, managed to push the intruders out of The Cathedral. However, this was only the beginning as the Adytite's ancient enemies, the Brotherhood of the Black Pharaoh would begin regular assaults. Adytites were hunted if they strayed too far from the safety of their new home, slaughtered, their bodies paraded around like trophies. The Brotherhood actively sought to assassinate the Adytite priests from the Church of the Red Harvest to finish the Remnants for good.
	After the arrival of the Brotherhood of the Black Pharaoh, a cult dedicated to worshiping Nyarlathotep, major conflict erupted within The Cathedral. The Brotherhood's hostility towards the remnants was evident. Adyites were actively hunted by members of the Sphinx, the conflict arrived to such a point where the sphinx were given orders to target our priests from the Church of the Red Harvest, an unarmed and non-combative division.

			Now, this struggle continues as the Cathedral enters a new era with an uncertain path ahead.
	Currently war and conflict are still raging within The Cathedral, a war made of two sides, The Adyite Remnants and The Order against the Brotherhood and independent raiders.

⚫	~~'''Brotherhood of the Black Pharaoh''':~~ A '''strictly hostile''' faction that actively hunts Adyites out of pure spite, members of this faction are purely hostile towards any remnant they find, engaging in combat as soon as they see a Sarkite. Any sort of mediation has been impossible and any sort of neutrality has been brief and tense (For example during the Corruption of Leviathans). Combat and hostilities have augmented between both sides and the killings and raidings have only increased.

	The Adytite Remnants, often referred to as 'Sarkics' or 'Sarkites' by the world are a tight knit organization ~~leftover~~ from a Bronze Age civilization once known as the 'Adytite Empire' or in their ancient tongue 'Kalmaktama'. They dedicate themselves in service of their patron, The Sorcerer King, Iūn and saints of Sarkicism known as Klavigar. The Remnants are primarily ~~lead~~ by Karcists who are descendants of the Klavigar or powerful Sarkites from the original founding members.		The Adytite Remnants, often referred to as 'Sarkics' or 'Sarkites' by the world, are a tight-knit organization left over from a Bronze Age civilization once known as the 'Adytite Empire' or, in their ancient tongue, 'Kalmaktama'. They dedicate themselves in service of their patron, The Sorcerer King, Iūn and saints of Sarkicism known as Klavigar. The Remnants are primarily led by Karcists who are descendants of the Klavigar or powerful Sarkites from the original founding members.

	The Adytites originate somewhere in central Asia where a monument was being built on the backs of thousands of slaves. One of these nameless slaves unearthed something beneath the monument that they were intended to build and then die for. Beneath the dark temple and beneath the earth, this slave came face to face with something unimaginable. Emboldened by the power of a deal struck, this slave chose a name for themselves; Iūn, which meant 'lowly' and 'wretched'. They raised 4 Klavigar and led a viscous rebellion against their slavers until they took the temple for themselves, naming it 'Adytum' — a word that meant 'Paradise'. But Paradise did not last. War pounded on the walls of their young city, the Adytites cursed to never know peace. Soon, that war would swallow Adytum and Iūn whole, forcing the Klavigar to give their lives so that some could flee the city. Adytum fell with Iūn at the epicenter and none left to tell the tale of the details of those final moments.

	The Adytite Remnants arrival to The Cathedral was initially shrouded in secrecy, stirring an displeasure within those holding a distaste for the Adytite's methods. The R'lyehian Order, a mysterious organization worshipping Cthulhu, agreed to an alliance with them. Their collaboration was christened as the 'Pact of Red Dreams' — An agreement and set of regulations to determine the Adytite's allowances within The Cathedral and the protections afforded to them by The Order.

	Despite an official alliance, there were mixed opinions within The Order. Some believed the Adytites did not belong there, shunning them or turning a blind eye during raids on The Cathedral targeting the Adytite's cathedral wing. Others ~~choose~~ a path of acceptance, believing the flesh sorcerers were necessary for the well-being of The Cathedral and The Order's own goals, particularly in fending off the growing threat of the Brotherhood of the Black Pharaoh.

	Many battles were fought, the raiders constant attacks toward The Cathedral did not succeed thanks to the joint efforts of The Order and The Adyite remnants, ~~specially~~ thanks to our Hunter's Black Lodge troops aiding in the ~~frontline~~, working hand-to-hand with the Drowned Guards and Leviathans alike.

	This new beginning did not come peacefully as raiders targeted the weakened defenses of the Cathedral Sarkic Wing. With the aid of The Order's Leviathans and Drowned Guards, the Remnant's military force — The Hunter's Black Lodge, managed to push the intruders out of The Cathedral. However, this was only the beginning as the Adytite's ancient enemies, the Brotherhood of the Black Pharaoh would begin regular assaults. Adytites were hunted if they strayed too far from the safety of their new home, slaughtered, their bodies paraded around like trophies. The Brotherhood actively sought to assassinate the Adytite priests from the Church of the Red Harvest to finish the Remnants for good.
