Graxian Cultists worship the evil snake god, Grax. The modern cult is a rebirth of the of an ancient cult long believed to be vanquished. The goal of the Cult of Grax is to increase the dark influence of their chaotic master, Grax. To this end the cult has members scattered across many towns and smaller villages while several of the major cities have a larger presence in their populations. Members tend to operate in secret to avoid discovery. There are generally three levels of membership in the cult - zealot, priest, and high priest. Zealots are the general membership and the largest group, Priests are equivalent to mid-level leadership, while a High Priest is an Anti-Cleric and there will be only one for each large enclave of cultists. The cult members typically do not publicize their membership through distinctive dress but may be wearing accessories such as a ring, necklace, or some other item with a giant snake coiled around a global map of the world. When encountered in their lair, the lower membership will be wearing white robes with various green highlights to signify advancement, the mid-level priests will have a robe with green and white being about evenly split, and the high priest will wear a completely green robe. Graxian Cultists Type | Number Appearing | Number In Lair | AC | Move Rate | HD | Lair Nearby | Treasure Type | Alignment | Zealots | 2-8 | 30-110 | 9 | 12 | 1+1 | 15 | A3 | C | Priests | 1-2 | 5-20 | 8 | 12 | 3 to 5 | 15 | B | C | High Priest | 1 | 1 | 7 | 12 | 7 to 8 | 15 | H | C |

First change - I forgot I was working on a single entry when I first started on this. I don't need to unnecessarily complicate this when there are statistics available in the rules so to that end....
zealots - Use the zealot statistics under the "Men" entry in the monster section of the rulebook. The general rank and file of the cult membership is represented by the zealot statistics.
acolyte - THIS will be the monster entry and will represent the step between zealot and high priest.
anti-cleric - use a high level anti-cleric as the high priest of the local enclave.
More information coming soon...
