Description
Zealots are the most obsessive and fanatical members of their faiths, viciously devoted to the destruction of all that does not meet their exacting, and frequently impossible, standards. When they lash out at what they are convinced is their unholy enemy, they do so with reckless determination and horrifying speed.
All religions spawn some zealots, as souls desperate for purpose or belonging latch onto blind hatred and fanaticism, but zealots are an embarassment and a failure for neutral or good religions, a perversion of more benevolent ideals. Evil faiths, or the most corrupt or wayward members of good or evil faiths often encourage zealots, seeing them as admirable warriors of faith and/or useful tools for disposing of their enemies.
