In my opinion, the system's too good to be restricted to good-aligned religions, witchcraft and necromancy. Let it be more free-flowing and customisable, something you can have implemented if there's enough development, creativity or IC practice of it.
They don't have to be differentiated much so that it's not a burden to code or w/e. Something like stances where you've got different fluff, different capstone and tiers, stats etc.
For example, I think Red Psychosis could've been 10x better than it was if it was brought in as a class, rather than as a free buff if you filled out a Google Doc. Use a verb similar to bless in order to infect people as a gainer, and you receive a nerf if you go too long without doing so. Have the Fire AP as an unlock, or temporary buff as a spender, and award an already existing Fire Sig as the spent unlock.
It borrows ideas and mechanics from other Classes that already exist. Just refluffed and shuffled around. If this is too large of a pain in the ass for the devs then rip. Just an idea.
