At the moment, I mostly need brainstorming for names and nicknames for these groups.
As discussed in a previous topic, the four towers on the borders of the Positive Quasielemental Planes clearly correlate to the four Doomguard citadels on the borders of the Negative Quasielemental Planes, meaning that there is an anti-dustman sect out there (or at least was. Probably IS though, because anti-Doomguardism is just a basic concept-- you can never truly wipe it out. Even if the Doomguard or someone wiped out every member of said sect and erased all evidence and memory of their existence from the multiverse, the sect would just pop up again a short time later.)
We need a name and nickname for the anti-Doomguard sect. This sect seeks to (mostly passively, though sometimes actively) further the process of creation. This sect believes that the Multiverse has just began, and is still in the birth pangs of the Creation Cycle (unlike the Doomguard who believe that the Multiverse is entering the armageddon/end phase/entropy stage of the Creation Cycle). Many things which the Doomguard see as evidence of entropy, this sect sees as signs of creation, including the Blood War and Entropes (entropes could create new elemental quasiplanes or demiplanes, they claim)
This sect is likely to be somewhat opposed to undeath and the undead, however.
Another (far more minor) sect we need is an anti-Dustman sect. Which would be rather odd, but um... yeah, there'd definitely be an opposite to the Dustmen.
So far I've compiled an exceedingly short list of factions and opposing factions or sects (or anti-factions/sects)
We also need a Psionics-equivalent of the Incantifiers. This group of course would have the exact same creed as the Incantifiers-- except that they claim that psionics is the true source of power. (Manifesters is way too generic and obvious. It's like the Incantifiers caling themselves "Casters".)
Another sect we need is one that is based solely on logic and temperance.
A sect which claims that the purpose of the multiverse is cold, calculating logic. Abandon emotion, for it only clouds one's judgement. Severely limit pleasurable activities, for these are distracting, addicting, and worthless/a waste of time. To them, the purpose of the multiverse is to amass knowledge and figure out how everything works, using mathmatics, provable/repeatable experiments, etc. and possibly even the scientific method (including the double-blind study). This is not so much an 'anti-sect' so much as one to fill in a major, MAJOR gap in the existing canon faction and sect material. I mean WTF at forgetting to cover one for "the purpose of life/the multiverse is knowledge/knowledge is power".
To be fair however, there should also be a SEPARATE (but allied) sect devoted solely to amassing knowledge. To them, knowledge is power and the purpose of existence. These guys are less about logic and temperance and more about knowledge and lore, including Truenames.
As I said, I mostly need help in coming up with names. So, any ideas, anyone?
Athar ---- Believers of the Source
Fraternity of Order ---- The Xaositects
Harmonium ---- Opposition (sect) and Ragers (sect)
