			The [[Sin Eaters]] are a heretic sect that believes that theirs is the duty to take on the sins of violence and “cleansing” so that the faithful can remain undisturbed. They are highly militant and believe in cleansing the world from the unclean (goblins, undead, demons, and orcs mainly). They are active only in [[Kotimaa]], where they maintain a keep. As long as they don’t bother honest folk, they’re tolerated. Rumors among the wise say that although they worship [[Peor-Fala]], it’s [[Roel Kor]] or [[Pinwheel]] who’s their actual divine patron.
