I’m running a campaign with a Cult of Yeenoghu (Demon Lord of Savagery and Slaughter, Demi-god of Gnolls) operating secretly as an order of a god of death and dreams. The Cult leader is a Werehyena/ high priest that is feeding a Nabassu Demon the souls of humans and demihumans to empower it. Along the way it’s creating undead (abyssal ghouls/Ghasts) that serve it on it rise. Once the creature consumes enough souls bad stuff happens. So it’s a operating inside the system / destroy the kingdom type cult.
Cults are a good way to keep immersion
