[[Dreadgod cult]] members are parasitic. With the exception of [[Subject One]], each Dreadgod is followed by a cult, comprised of sacred artists who follow their monster and benefit from the destruction it creates. The Paths of the cults seem to use the same aspects as their Dreadgods, borrowing power from them to create Blood Shadows and Living Lightning, etc. etc.
