Priests of Aphyx gather for dark and terrible purposes. It is rumored that they are behind the Plague of 3A62. They wear grayish, tattered robes with deep cowls that are always pulled up. They will pull back the

cowls to use the Cause Fear power, revealing their horrible visages. Physical self-deprecation is common among Priests of Aphyx. Many also keep rats and giants rats as pets and servants. Player Characters may not be Priests of Aphyx.
