Cult of Bysmiel

''Worshipping the elusive Lady of Whispers, the Cult of Bysmiel prides itself on manipulation and subterfuge. ''

It was by Bysmiel's machinations that the empire's inquisitors spent centuries aimlessly hunting for the Witch God cults, their efforts confounded by the endless weave of decoys and lies.

''All this is made possible through a vast network of spies and informants, known as Bysmiel's web. Only a select few are trusted in knowing the full span of Bysmiel's schemes.''

The Cult of Bysmiel is an allied Faction within Grim Dawn Forgotten Gods.

Lore
The Witch Gods are said to wield unfathomable powers. Their followers worship them in the hopes of getting a mere taste of this vast potential. Naturally, the Erulan emperors did not approve of such heresy and the Luminari were dispatched to exterminate any that defy the commands of the throne and the faith of Empyrion.

But the Witch Gods are clever, their covens well hidden. For centuries, their worshippers have evaded capture. They worked from the shadows, secretly manipulating the empire’s citizens and growing their numbers.

When the Grim Dawn struck, all of humanity paid the price for the hubris of the Gildam Arcanum arcanists, the Witch God cults included. Yet it was their efforts to evade the Luminari that spared them the brunt of the initial carnage. The cults receded to their hidden places to tend to their wounds and recover their strength. All the while, the Witch Gods plotted their next move...

But cosmic forces are at play that go beyond just the conflict between the Aetherials and the Chthonians. Forgotten powers are stirring in the celestial vale. Powers that threaten even the Witch Gods themselves. And so, in an unprecedented move, the cults have gathered as one. No longer divided by their devotion, they became unified in a singular purpose: to halt the return of the cataclysm that ravaged the Korvan lands.
