The Ancestral Fey are... well the ancestral spirits of the fey in Ravenloft, who are worshipped by the Arak.
History
Originating from the research and lore discovered by the Shee archivist Ailiah, she was ordered by Maeve, the queen of the Seelie Court, to find a way to contact them. After receiving help from a nymph priestess, her prayers to the fey ancestors were answered, and she gained divine powers. Since then, the cult of the Ancestral Fey has been slowly growing, with new priests and priestesses obtaining powers.
Worshippers
The cult is fairly young and thus there aren't that many followers of the Ancestral Fey, but the cult has been endorsed and supported by Maeve, whilst Loht and his Unseelie Court have criticized the cult publicly and consider it a threat to the freedom of the Arak.
What sets the clerics of the Ancestral Fey apart from those of other religions, is that they can't turn or rebuke undead, but can command fey creatures.

The signature Cleric Domain of this unique religion is the Glamour Domain.
