The Blue cult (Meme)

The Blue Cult is a shadowy splinter cell religion that hid behind the scenes of The Red Cult. When the cult was older, member of its lower ranks come to a conclusion about the cults practices. When engaging in sacrificial rituals, and acts of devotions during times of war and slaughter, they realized that as they stabbed and slew others they were also stabbed and slew themselves. This begot a wave of what internally was referred to as, "The coward reforms", a new internal movement promoting more indirect and less personally dangerous methods of slaughter, methods that also were anathema to the Red cults more traditionally minded leader ship. 
The Splinter
On the return from a successful sacrificial ceremony, a Mahant, known as Og_Dexter, suggested to a small group of followers who travelled with him home, that they may try a new method of devotion. One just as glorious as their current, but with less blood spilt from the cult, as as such diverted their course home, towards a small village. Its unknown what exactly transpired at this detour, however over the next months, the entirety of the village fell to illness, along with all those downriver who drank from the same spring as fed the village.
The Split
While the village detour was successful in creating a wanton amount of death to devote to their god, many of the party who had been involved described the acts as cowardice, and heretical. While others, were stunned by the effective method of slaughter and its drastically reduced risk to their own persons. This split was further enlarged by the growing belief in what were now known as "The Blues", a name earned from the faces of those who died on the detour, for their method of execution is theorized to have been poison leaving them blue in the face as they underwent cardiac arrest and the blood drained of their face. The Blues advocated for abandonment of the non material and sacrificial ideals of the Red faction, and instead promoted the indirect and in expensive methods of non combative slaughter.
The War
This split, along such vital and accepted ideals amongst the cult created a minor religious war. However war is not the correct term, as it was in practice more displays of dominance. "The Reds", built a small wooden fort along the edge of the river were the detour had occurred as a show of dominance, and in turn "The Blues" built a fort in response on the opposite bank. However, rather then the grueling and bloody wars of the past, this small stalemate conflict was one of skill and expertise. Each fort would send small teams of elite warriors, slingers, talented spearmen, archers, fire throwers, scouts, and brutal elite warriors. However the goal of each was not to fight the other, but undermine their fort, destroy it, vandalize it, break in and loot, or purely harass the other team attempting to do the same to their own fort.
The great "peace"
This war, of teams of Red elites and Blue elites fighting amongst their forts would last for two years. While a relatively short war it was an almost perfectly matched stalemate, until a triumphant partnership occurred for the Reds. A merchant named Axton Qual, with new and unheard of tools made of iron from the lands of Mannaco, began trade with the Reds, under the deal he would conduct no trade with the blues. This proved a disastrous development for the blues, as their teams became vastly inferior to the new Red forces, armed in their new grey armor of wrought iron and plate. Peace was restored yes, but at the cost of the lives of every Blue faction member. It was a peace, a peace in the traditional and glorious methods of the Red Cult.
Note: This is both non canon, and a complete joke. Have a laugh! but who would you have supported? The Reds or the Blues?
