Cultists

The Cultists (officially named The Cult of Creation) are a group of members in the Backrooms who sacrifice Explorers to a higher being.

History
The first arch deacon Cronk was chosen on May 13, 2022. Cronk, on May 15, created a new position called Deacon and set Hastur to that position.

Over time, the explorers became aware of a tattoo the Cultists wore on their arm to identify themselves. They changed the tattoo to be located on their leg, and burned the original tattoos off.

On May 31, Cronk resigned as Arch Deacon and promoted Hastur to the position. Hastur made Ghost his Deacon.

On June 17, Ghost set in place a new identification method; it involves one Cultist saying "shadow" to another, and if they do not respond with "darkness", then they were not a cultist.

On June 20, Hastur resigned, putting in place Ghost as the new Arch Deacon. Ghost added two new ranks to the enlisted branch. On June 24, Ghost held a vote to determine his new Deacon; Cryka prevailed 7-23-3.
