[QUOTE="Stormborn, post: 3737155, member: 14041"] The church could be called something simple and straight forward like: The Path of Righteousness The Way of Light The Ascending Sun The Heralds of Dawn or a bit overblown like: The Exalted and Ancient Temple of the Glorious Light The Eternal House of the Hours of the Day or simply be called after a founder/god figure: The Fellowship of Luminarius The Assembly of the Ascended One The Family of Fideous Truthbringer The Suntouched. Secret Societies within the church: The Open Sky: An ancient and heretical sect that went underground within the church centuries ago which basically teaches that the Sun is not a God but simply a ball of light but that the faith and devotion of the pure in the ideals of the church can bring them to salvation. The Candle Keepers: Evolving out of a group that did just that, keep the candles of the great temple burning and ready throughout the night, this group has become a small cabal of information brokers. They gather secrets and sell them. The best secret societies are not going to have literal names. Why advertise what you do when you are a [U]secret [/U] society? Instead name them for places they originated, rooms they met in, colors they wear, or founders. Other names might be The Brotherhood of the Quiet Room, The Gray Token, The Gardeners, The Whisperers of the Words, Sheliaties (named after their founder Shelia), or the The Painted Pony Club. The more you develop the theology of the church the better you can define the factions within it. Most of whom will agree with the matters of faith, but not their interpretation or application, while others might be unorthodox to the point of heresy. [/QUOTE]
