Cult of the Howling Hatred

The Cult of the Howling Hatred was a cult devoted to Yan-C-Bin and one of the four cults responsible of the Elemental Evil crisis.

Activities
the Cult of the Howling Hatred gathered all air cultists. They were fascinated by the destructive power of wind and storms, and saw themselves as agents of elemental air with the missions to punish those who have wronged against the skies. Different than the members of the other cults, many Howling Hatred cultists used their new elemental powers only as instruments to a end. They never destructed things for nothing, but only with the objective of express their personal freedom or to obtain things. The Cult of the Howling Hatred recruited among those who deal in perceptions over facts: illusionists, spies, and assassins, for example. Predatory or fierce winged creatures of any kind, even non-sentient monsters usually too stupid and ravenous to be trained, tolerated and even submitted to cultists. Hippogriffs, griffons, and giant vultures were frequently used as air cult steeds.

Tactics and Philosophy
