Followers of Darkness

The is a clandestine sect (or sects that have taken different forms throughout the years) comprised by a group of fanatic occultists sworn to resurrect the Dark Lord, Count Dracula, by any means (black mass being the most common method).
Characters such as Drolta Tzuentes, Barlowe and the dark priest Shaft can be considered to be the leaders of these organizations in their respective lifetimes.
