Interesting this idea came up only a few short months after I shared these thoughts with only close friends and family.

But what I don't understand why people see the need to form a "Splinter" church.
Why cannot the devotees of the dark Gods form their own Dark church? Where are you getting all this "splinter" crap.
Anyway, I think a new Priests guild with say devotion, necromancy and subterfuge would be quite interesting. The devotion could be altered slightly.
But isn't this really something to take up with the Gods of the Darker realms?
Maybe they would be honored by the formation of their own church, maybe they think it's foolishness.

All this babbling isn't solving anything. Someone should put it down in writing and present it to the Gods of the Darker Realms in an organized manner.

While I personally feel that no one could do anything as well as I could do it myself, I serve Lupus. And I see no distiction in Dark and Light. For all are capable of the same, and all strive for the same, even if they are striving against each other blindly.
You may think me foolish for these views, but they work for me and I'm not running around telling anyone else how to think (anymore. Lay off my past, I'm too old for that crap.)

Anyway, someone already in the service of Darkness needs to present these things to their Lord or Lady and quit the bickering. Let the Gods sort it out. In the end the decision is theres.
Why this obvious solution never sparked in anyone's mind before is beyond me. Why I have to waste my precious time pointing these things out to you people when I'd much rather be napping, I don't know.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to hunt.
