Sanctifiers of Loathys

Since the mortal rediscovery of the elemental planes by Emperor Nerale I in the earliest years of the Holy Celestine Empire, the Pool of Stars has been used as a conduit to channel power from the plane of Water in order to cleanse the sea and accelerate the healing of nearby lands from the havoc wrought by the Elder Wars. In the face of the modern infection of the Basin of Life by the Soulless god Kethuru, a loose faction is known as the Sanctifiers of Loathys has reinvigorated these efforts to rid the world of such evil. The Sanctifiers recognise three areas that require sanctification. The first is the sanctification of the Self and Mind, where practitioners seek a transcendental state known as Lumosis. Second, is the sanctification of the body, whether it be to maintain a healthy and pure body for yourself, or purging the touch of the Soulless or disease from others. And lastly, the sanctification of the land, to cleanse the land of any remnants of the Soulless. Some members of this community find themselves seeking out all of the hidden corners of reality in an effort to find and cleanse the remnants of the soulless corruption that continue to plague existence. This aspect of the Sanctifiers is in itself quite diverse, including those who have plumbed the depths of the Basin's deepest crevices as well as some of the most formidable aethership captains in history. Whereas some dedicate their lives to studying and documenting these discoveries, others specialise explicitly in sanctifying the elements or healing the lands and living creatures scarred by the Taint. Yet others among the Sanctifiers instead focus their explorations almost exclusively on introspection, believing that reaching Lumosis better equips them to sanctify the wider world.
