Description
It is a cult centered around a heretical deity known as Mithras. Mithras has shown himself to the citizens of Rome a few times, taking on a form of a bunny with, more often than not, red eyes. The deity posed a challenge to the Roman gods, calling them out on their indifference and cold justice towards their followers, in doing so earning quite a few followers. Cultist altars dedicated to Mithras started appearing all over Rome, stirring up the relationship of the city with its gods. An organised cult formed, with Decaeneus the Dacian as its head. The cultists constructed many underground shrines and meeting spots, where they worshipped Mithras in secret, sending the Temple in frenzy, and sparking multiple city-wide heretic hunts.
Story
The cult was started by a man known as Decaeneus the Dacian. Harbouring hostile feelings towards the Roman gods, he set out to make the first mithraeum, an underground shrine for the heretic deity known as Mithras, under the floors of House Aurelion. Members of the family remained unaware, as he made offerings to Mithras right under their noses. On that faithful day, the fragile peace of the celestial plane in Rome was shattered. Forces long forgotten, which remained deeply asleep until now, opened their eyes once more. And they answered the call.
