Cult of Porrodso

The Cult of Porrodso is a cult that was formed sometime around 500 AF in the Northern Reach. There is little known about their origins and little written history of the cult. In more recent days, they have small chapters all over the Northern Continent. Actual membership is hard to track, due to the organization being very secretive and elusive.
The cult believes that Porrodso (aka. God) created this world as a layer of Hell. They believe that the Fall was not actually an event, but more of a metaphor for death. They believe that when wicked/evil Humans die, they are reborn in this world as punishment. Similarly, they believe that Dragoons are actually Fallen Angels sent here as punishment for disobeying or disrespecting Porrodso in any way. They claim its the most logical reason for a Dragoon's super-human abilities and desire to rule over humanity. They refuse to acknowledge that Guardians actually exist, rather believing that the Dragoons simply use the idea of Guardians to instill fear in Humans.
The cult teaches its followers to stay quiet about their beliefs and activities, fearing the ramifications if the world learned the truth about itself. Membership includes a wide range of people, from corporate executives to Northern Reach scrappers. There have been rumors that membership has even included Dragoons on occasion.
Although the cult mainly tries to avoid the public eye, they are also known for their vigilantism. They believe that people are to redeem themselves to Porrodso in this world, so they will occasionally target those they believe continue to conduct evil deeds. These people are described as being unworthy of Porrodso's grace. Their bodies are usually mutilated in a way to reflect the evil they committed. For example, in the Northern Reach a member was raped multiple times by her father as a young girl, so the cult had him killed and dismembered. They also tend to cut the eyes out of victims, claiming that the victim does not deserve to see Porrodso in the next world.
They refer to themselves as the "True Followers of Porrodso," feeling disrespected by being called a cult.
