In a world where religion seems prevalent and every culture, a clandestine group emerges—The Seekers of Apotheosis. Driven by a relentless pursuit of transcendence, they have devoted themselves to an audacious endeavor: to shatter the chains of reality and forge their own boundless realm. Within the inner sanctum of their order, these intrepid visionaries gather, their minds aflame with daring dreams and unwavering determination. Guided by an unwritten creed, they delve into esoteric knowledge, ancient philosophies, and forbidden arts, seeking the keys to unlock the doorways of perception. With each clandestine creation and shared revelation, the Seekers of Apotheosis push the boundaries of the imaginable, seeking to create their own realm.

Ranking:

---

Hierophant: As the highest authority within the guild, the Hierophant holds the sacred responsibility of overseeing the Seekers of Apotheosis. They diligently maintain alliances with other factions and strive to ensure harmony and unity among fellow seekers. While individual Magisters are free to explore their own paths towards achieving the dream of transcendence, the ultimate direction and vision of the Seekers rests with the discernment and guidance of the Hierophant.

Magister: Magisters are individuals within the guild who passionately pursue various methods to escape the confines of reality and ascend to higher realms. They may take the lead in organizing and leading expeditions, seeking out knowledge, acquiring powerful artifacts, or undertaking daring raids against enemies who stand in the way of their journey. Additionally, Magisters are entrusted with the crucial task of defending the sacred home of the Seekers from any threats that may arise.

Seeker: Seekers are esteemed members of the guild who have proven their dedication, commitment, and worth through their unwavering pursuit of apotheosis. They have displayed their exceptional skills, profound knowledge, and remarkable accomplishments within the realm of transcendence. As recognized members, Seekers hold a respected position within the guild, contributing their unique expertise and experiences to the collective journey.

Initiate: Initiates are individuals who have recently joined the ranks of the Seekers but have yet to fully demonstrate their mettle and prove themselves as true seekers. They are at the beginning of their path, eagerly absorbing knowledge, undergoing training, and undertaking various tasks and trials to establish their commitment and potential within the guild.

Associate: Associates primarily encompass the citizens of the guild's home and its immediate surroundings. While many associates are guild members, it is not exclusive to them. Some outsiders who share a common interest or possess valuable skills may be granted the status of associate. Although they may not have reached the esteemed ranks of Seeker or Magister, associates play a vital role in supporting the guild's operations and contribute to the dynamic tapestry of the Seekers of Apotheosis.

Secular Morality and Common Law:

---

The first fundamental principle is a strict prohibition against harming or killing fellow Seekers. This principle recognizes the inherent value of every member's life and the significance of unity within the guild.

The second principle revolves around the prohibition of theft within the guild. It upholds the notion that each Seeker's personal belongings and resources are to be respected and safeguarded. This principle fosters an environment of trust, integrity, and fairness, allowing individuals to focus on their spiritual pursuits without fear of unjust loss or infringement upon their possessions.

The third principle encourages Seekers to handle personal disputes away from the public eye. This principle recognizes the potential for conflicts and disagreements to arise within any community. It is understood that not all disputes can be handled with words alone, and if blood must be shed, do so away from the homes of your fellow seekers.

The forth principle is simple: Unless the magic impedes transcendence, it is allowed to be used within the domain of the Seekers.

These principles of secular morality and common law are not intended to stifle individuality or impede personal growth but rather to establish a framework that supports the shared objectives and values of the Seekers of Apotheosis. By adhering to these principles, guild members contribute to a cohesive and nurturing community, where each individual can focus on their personal spiritual development while collaborating with others on their path to self-discovery and transcendence.
