Auriferous

Quick Info
The Auriferous are a small group that lives quietly and secretly tries to remain unnoticed and unfound. They believe that gold is the most important thing that will ever exist, and will sacrifice it to their god Uitis, the god of riches. If you stumble across their church they will try convincing you to join, and eventually be sacrificed. If you do decide to join it will take some practice before you can be part of their complex rituals, but you will be put to work mining gold right away.

Lore
During the creation of the world, a creature was created which would be sent down to collect and sacrifice to Uitis, the god of riches, and to collect others to help with the collection and sacrifice of valuables. Eventually a war between the gods broke out Uitis, along with many other gods, was on the side that lost, and where banished to a realm of darkness, waiting for their followers to grow strong enough to break them out. The creature, which was still out in the world, now has the only goal to break its creator out of the realm of darkness.

Actions
The followers of Auriferous will try to do anything they can to get a quick buck, whether it be by mining out an area, killing players, or building stuff they can't resist money.
