Editing Blood of Vol (section)

==The Various Sects==
As many people don't know of Vol or the Crimson Covenant, or are loyal to them, the spread of the faith has outgrown Vol's direct ability to oversee it. Though she does watch the sects, interested in the growth and changes brought by other seekers.

===The Cult of Life===
The thieves of life, as the members are called, are some of the most dangerous seekers in the world. They also seek everlasting life, but they pay for it by absorbing other peoples souls, or fragments of them. The higher-ranking members know of Vol and the Crimson Covenant, and even take orders from them, with neophytes kept in the dark until they earn their place.

===Hornblade Clan===
Originally a small tribe in Western Khorvaire, they were decimated fighting against their [[druid]]ic cousins, until Janilya, a [[half-orc]] exile returned and slew the previous chieftain. She then declared the clan to be loyal to Vol, and that they would accept other seekers as members, if their faith was strong enough. The clan is now one of the largest communities of seekers, mainly comprise of [[orc]]s and [[goblin]]oids, with its members following the prophet Janilya and her vision for the future. Those who are found unworthy, end up as sacrifices for the good of the clan. 

===The Keepers of Blood===
[[Skub|The most divisive of sects]], sometimes welcomed, sometimes killed as heretics. Along with following the principles of Vol, they follow the portfolio of [[The Keeper]], claiming that by recognizing and revering both primordial aspects can they be assured of divinity or life everlasting. 

===Order of the Emerald Claw===
Originally a well-respected knightly order within Karrnath, they were disgraced and declared extremists and terrorists. Their true loyalty lies with Erandis d'Vol, with the higher ranked members aware that everything they do is for her, while the lower ranked members merely believe that they are Karrnathi loyalists, ostracized by outside forces. They act as Blood of Vol's paramilitary branch, operating in cells and fulfilling missions given to them by the Crimson Covenant.

===Bloodsail Elves===
Not exactly part of the cult but related to it, this is the culture Erandis herself grew up on. Although her family was eradicated, their other allies were allowed to be exiled, and have preserved their necromantic traditions in part of the Lhazaar Principalities.
