The All Mother's Following - Dovefeather - Jan 13 2016
Hey everyone! Ever want to join a cult of kittens that worship a big mushroom in Eridanus? No? Maybe?
*note: you dont have to be a feline to apply
to be as evil as you might think we are."
All Mother and You
The All Mother's Following is a religious, non-official group that can be found in all of Origin. Their main headquarters is in Eridanus, where the religious leaders of the All Mother's Following live among The Guardians. Anyone can join the All Mother's Following, and once they do so they will be referred to as Sisters or Brothers by fellow Followers.
This religious group follows nearly every belief with the Guardian's Rise, although they listen closely to the words of the All Mother above all else. As such, if one believes about maintaining the balance of the caves and protecting their friends and family, they will find that the All Mother is likely already guiding their pawsteps.

Church of the All Mother
The All Mother is one of many powers at play in Origin Caves. She is everywhere and no where, and she sees not unlike an omnipresent god. Devotees of the All Mother worship her in various ways, and She communes with them through both Signs and Nature. The All Mother guides the path of many gembounds, leading them towards a greater good.
Signs
* Although not always, Children of the All Mother are given signs at birth. The most common example of these signs are feathers. Once a Devotee receives a feather sign from the All Mother, they go by that name from then on. Usually the name is either based on the color of the feather, or what species it belonged to.
* Anyone who follows the All Mother can read signs and come up with meanings for them. Usually, WATCHERS, or Seers, spend their time looking for and understanding signs from the All Mother. Although signs commonly come from birds, they can also be found in any sort of nature or lesser gembound.

Nature
* The All Mother is said to reside in the Monarch, a massive mushroom located in the center of Eridanus.
* The All Mother is connected to all nature in the cave, though Her power is strongest in Eridanus. She speaks through plant and fungal life, and is said to See through the Eyes, two pools of identical water also residing in Eridanus.

Roles
* WATCHERS
* SPEAKERS
* LISTENERS
- Watchers of the All Mother are also known as Seers. They look for signs from the All Mother at all times, and try to See as she does.
-- Examples: Dovefeather
* SPEAKERS
- Speakers of the All Mother spread gospel of the All Mother. They wander outside of Eridanus even more than Watchers, and meet with many different Gembounds to further the goals of the All Mother.
-- Examples: Booker
* LISTENERS
- Listeners of the All Mother are often plant or fungi wielding magic users. They spend the most time with the All Mother, listening for whispers in the leaves or murmurs from the Monarch's mushroom itself. They are perhaps the most mysterious of the All Mother's following, but also the closest to Her roots.
-- Examples: Blackfeather, Diot
@Booker @Blackfeather @Basil @Diot ? anyway please post and tag people you think might be interested, and confirm if you're good with joining this group and having a good time at the job faire! also @Cayenne I'm sure you'd rather join CoR, but if you'd like to chip in your two cents about the All Mother, feel free ;)
but yeah lets get the cult cat started properly u nerds
RE: The All Mother's Following - Havoc - Jan 13 2016
i might finally finish a sand cat child that i was intending to make a rlly long time ago for this, she was going to be the Listener of Earth???? Like earth magic? i forgot her name
will edit if i find her name again
UPDATE: ok apparently her account's gone awol so i'll just make a new one lol
but i'm still up for this plot lol
RE: The All Mother's Following - Booker - Jan 13 2016
let's get the hype train rolling toot toot motherfuckers
dove can be leader, but priest will probably challenge her for it if he's not like, held to his own self-instilled level of power lmfao... but yes he's basically around to make tea and spread gospel while luring in gentle innocents by being mostly nice 8) if you'd like life advice from someone who murdered his son come to this tiny man, outsiders!
RE: The All Mother's Following - Dovefeather - Jan 13 2016
Hey now, if Priest wants to be leader he is more than welcome to it. Dove trusts her weird brother (possibly more than she even trusts the All Mother) lmao
or they could just have a joint leadership (WINK)
also ban u better make a cute sandcat for cult times
RE: The All Mother's Following - Booker - Jan 13 2016
omg bro and sister leadership let's do it
AND BAN DO IT we need All The Cute Kitties 8^)
RE: The All Mother's Following - Dovefeather - Jan 13 2016
actually!!! idea: in character, at least, there's a leader for every branch of the group. so there's a leader for the listeners, watchers, and speakers?
so its 3 leaders that all sort of make decisions together.. it makes the most sense that way. like a lil all mother council
out of character tho either me or matt will have official control of the group lmao
RE: The All Mother's Following - Booker - Jan 13 2016
YES WE SHOULD ABSOLUTELY DO THAT!! 8OC council of the all mother! keep things fair and organized
i volunteer priest to make tea for all of their meetings, good... actually that would be incredibly good for the whole "making a religious text for the Mother Cult" plotline 8)))) dove and the other leader can give their input as to what should go in the book??
(and yeha lmao... and bri can obv have input 'cause she came up with the cult <3)
RE: The All Mother's Following - Dovefeather - Jan 13 2016
yyyyyeSSSSS tea is required. the more
also an important thing to note about the All Mother's
in fact a lot of the all mother's "teachings" are generally good and wholesome, its just,, some of them are more Extreme in their following than others. no one is going to be forced to do anything sketchy or weird they don't want to do! <3 so don't really worry so much about the "cult" title, though if u want ur character to join a cult and do sketchy things while worshiping an all seeing fungus you have found ya home

RE: The All Mother's Following - Basil - Jan 14 2016
Basil is all for this man, wherever Dove is, he is, and he'll try to keep her safe.
RE: The All Mother's Following - Quintus - Jan 14 2016
Don't know if if Shaf, Bri and Matt are still interested on the idea I had in mind but there's always that. I'm trying to have Quin meet with the leaders of the cult ASAP because things might just go down faster than I thought they would
