Muckstuck: The entirety of a Sanguine church hinges on its muckstuck, a damned raised from Infernus that was a flatterer in life. Vampire Sanguine Archdeacon: ?Wrathborn: Worshippers of Phlegyas are those who want to murder the world, one soul at a time. To that end they create a wrathborn, a cursed lineage inhabited by thirteen damned souls from the Styx. These wrathful thirteen continue as if they were still in Infernus, murdering every being who comes within a few miles of the body of water where they are born. The Thirteenth find a young soul and drown him or her. His death and subsequent resurrection creates a wrathborn through which the Thirteenth's wrath may find its expression. The Thirteenth are dedicated to ensuring the wrathborn keeps killing by infusing a body of water with the River Styx. Then, on the thirteenth of every Friday, the wrathborn is born again. The wrathborn is possessed by a wrathful from Infernus, unless the body is so destroyed that it cannot be possessed, in which case the Thirteenth will procure a blood relative for possession. The Thirteenth use bodies of water—lakes, ponds, and other waterfronts—to create and trap the wrathborn. Cac: ?Parent: The parents appear as headless corpses, themselves reanimated by discordant damned. Ghoul: Worshippers of Cerberus have perverted the sacrifice of Sikkar, often by fire, into a blood ritual in which drinking his blood is seen as a form of redemption. This blood is collected from a muckstuck, itself absorbed from stirges who are squeezed to provide the liquid to worshippers. It is also carved up and baked into bread-like wafers, which are fed to the faithful as the “body” of Sikkar. The worshippers eat Sikkar’s flesh and drink his blood, believing it brings them closer in communion with their deity. Over time, the population is turned into vampire spawn (those who drink Sikkar’s “blood”) and ghouls (those who eat his “body”).
