First Decree of the Dark Reformation

Background Information
There have been no documented instances of the Cult of the Damned ever praying; however, there has never been a need to. For as long as members of the Cult could remember, they worshiped and followed a living God – one who readily gave orders and doctrine. However, now the Cult of the Damned’s God – the Almighty Lich King – is gone. No missives come from the north issuing orders or decrees. The Cult’s adherents have slowly turned to prayer, a meager replacement to the way things used to be. They pray, in the hopes that they will receive an answer.

They had had a God that was readily there – and there was no need for prayer; however, now their God is dead, and the need for prayer is born out of desperation for answers.

However, the resorting to prayer led to even more dissension, as no answers came to the feverish cultists who applied all that they could to prayer. The Lich King’s voice did not echo inside their head, nor did they receive a vision from their Master.

Desperate to keep the faith alive within the Cult of the Damned, its leadership devised a plan to satisfy their cultist’s desire to pray before their Lord, maintain control over its members, and create the illusion of divine inspiration. Its leadership announced that their Master spoke, but that he would only speak to the Supreme Overseer of the Cult of the Damned.

From then on, the Invokers or even the Supreme Overseer himself would hear the prayers of their followers, the Supreme Overseer would withdraw into his chambers and begin communion with their Lord and Ruler, the Lich King, and then would return with an answer.
