-Cult of Cthulhu
Living in a shrine built in a cave, they teach those that come to them the ways of the Great Old One, prophesying that one day he will return, and all shall be equal on that day, as he takes the souls of the worthy and unworthy into himself.
None are turned away, regardless of crimes, alignment, species, or other factor.

[b]Character Backstory:[/b]
Raised as a slave, she prayed to the gods to free her from the people who had cut out her tongue for speaking out of turn.  None answered, but as she "tranced" she felt as if the mind of another being was there with her, as powerful as a god, difficult to comprehend, and hungry.  It was impressed that she did not go mad from trying to comprehend it, and offered to answer the prayer that the gods ignored.  She accepted the offer, and when her trance ended she found she was able to speak with the other slaves, or at least their minds.

Over the next several days she secretly spoke to the other slaves, teaching them of the Great Old One who spoke to her.  When they were ready, they revolted, killing their masters, and fleeing into the wilds.  There they survived, building a temple to the Great Old One in a cave where they would not be discovered.

When all of the other slaves had been initiated, she instructed them to free other slaves and to teach them the ways of Cthulhu, then left to grow stronger, and to spread the word of the Great Old One throughout the world.

[b]Additional features and traits:[/b]
Tattooed on the inside of her right forearm:
1) A slave does not speak unless spoken to.
2) A slave does not speak inappropriately to or about their master.
3) Disobedient slaves are beaten for their disobedience.
4) If you can't be trained, you die.

She had her tongue cut out for violating #2.

Her arms have the following "poem" tattooed on them in Draconic.
Left arm: That is not dead which can eternal lie.
Right arm: And with strange eons, even death may die.

The backs of her hands contain symbols from her patron's holy teachings.  Her head, from just above her forehead, and down her spine, is tattooed with scripture from those teachings as well.
