Cult of the red snake

Originally a cult dedicated to the worship of the great snake, one of the divine beasts, the cult of the red snake suddenly changed leadership when the Lads invaded their headquarters and killed their leader. The cult switched to worshiping Koltar  as he proclaimed himself their new god amidst the fight with the cult leader. Later, this cult gained new members from the village the Lads saved from another cult.
As the head of the cult, Koltar holds the title of “The great snake”. They worship him as god and when we was sanctified, along with the remaining Lads, the cult grew in members as their worship was now legitimized. 
Koltar keeps the cult mainly in the shadows. They act as spies and assassins for the Lads when such tasks are required, they form a very important tool wielded by the Lads in order to expand and control the Ladian Empire just like the Sailor Girls and other factions. In 539 HE they were of use by gathering information on the war in the Heavenly Kingdom of Man and its conversion to the Gliga Empire, they spied and reported to the sailor girls the position of their fleet, this info later reached Team Vulcan's ears and eyes ahah.
Although they are in service of the Lads, they owe absolute devotion to Koltar and he uses them to fulfill his own purposes many times, such as watching over his kids when they are out and about.
=== Trivia ===
All the cult members have the symbol tattooed behind their ears.
The cult is divided into different factions, the fangs, the body and the head. The fangs are the field operatives usually young and promising members, the body coordinates the operations and provides field support being composed mainly of older members and retired fangs, the head is Koltar who deals with the most important matters. 
Betrayal of the cult or desertion is punishable by death. 
Aspiring members of the cult are called eggs, and must pass training and indoctrination before they "hatch" and become full fledged members. Koltar oversees all of the Hatchings.
No one really knows who belongs to the cult and who doesn't, the only people who have access to this information are the Lads themselves.
