If you want to write, there are some important things you might want to learn when posting; which is our terms and how we classify them. Here, we will explain many common terms that you should use or see here. Let's begin.
Common Hierarchy
Church: A religious group of which is ran by a clergy, often with a "pope" figure who ultimately makes the decisions for the religion despite it having many leaders per designated area.
Coven: A religious group that requires an initiation of some sort, and often ties members together through the oral exchange of blood, or pieces of others' flesh.
Cult: Through the use of environmental and mental manipulation, cults often involve extreme focus and obsession on a particular subject and find it offensive for members to disregard such object for an extended period of time.
Common Classifications
God: Mostly used to describe a single entity, or rarely two closely related entities, a god is a "powerful being", sometimes an object or place, in which is worshiped for its supposed capabilities. Most of them either have a specific calling, or all-powerful control, with rare occasions of "powerless" gods.
Demigod: Often half-human half god-blooded, a less powerful god, one who controls a small and essentially worthless territory, or one who has very little worshipers. Even if a cultist leader who views himself as a god with millions of followers would still be a demigod, for he is still human.
Thrall: Any human subject who is servant to an entity, including worshipers.
Virgin: Two variations, one in which splits in to sub-variations. The first is the origin meaning; Any human subject, regardless of the sex, who has never participated in ceremony before. The blood can be drawn from them in any way.The other variation is the newer, mostly pop-culture meaning, in which involves a woman who has never participated in sexual intercourse. Their blood, however, must specifically been drawn from the breaking of the hymen (despite it is not the actual sign of virginity). If they do not have one, the blood cannot be drawn. The other, however, involves getting the blood from the female's menstrual cycle. The last one, commonly seen in pop culture, is the sacrifice of the female subject by drawing her blood from a usually fatal area of her body, but it can be taken from anywhere.
Theory: Usually used to represent something reoccurring, often in a mental state or invisible/spiritual physical one, theories cannot be proven but are "widely accepted" by the group they are made by.
Apparition: An apparition is a specified supernatural entity that is seen in physical form. Any "ghost" that is claimed to be visible is an apparition. Only used for entities that have previously living.
Phantom: The exact opposite of apparition, a phantom is an invisible entity who proves its existence mentally or in movements and differences in the physical environment and its temperature. Only used for entities that have previously been living.
Constant work in progress. More terms are likely to be added eventually.
