### Elemental Worship

In Numar'goth, the worship of the elements is fairly uncommon, but it does exist. There are followers of water, fire, air and earth. These people believe that the gods did not actually create the universe, but that it spawned from a volatile mixture of the elements.

## Cults

### Dragon Cults

The allure of dragons is legendary. Besides the race of kobolds (which are widespread practitioners of dragon worship), various peoples all over the world will sometimes gather and worship a dragon. This usually begins as a mean to appease those dragons that enjoy this sort of reverence, but just as often it is simply out of supernatural fear. The most widespread dragon cult is that of the Cult of Skliros, an ancient black dragon that rules over the ruins of Elsmire. They believe that he will bring ruin to all the civilizations of Numar'goth, and mean to assist him in that goal, with the belief that they will have a place in his new world.

### Fiendish Cults

Among the many cults of the world, perhaps the most commonly found are those that worship demons or devils. The cults usually form around a charismatic warlock, sorcerer, or someone else who cavorts with devils. Members of the the cults are often promised rewards of wealth and power for their loyal services. These cults were likely responsible for the origin of tieflings in the world.

They tend to believe that the gods tend to make promises of gifts without actually going through on them, and that there is no guarantee of a decent afterlife, so they prefer to make their earthly lives as grand as possible.
