Blind Witness cults are the various fragmentary faiths that worship the Blind Witness in one form or another, often in ways highly divergent from the standard worship of the deity in the Aserdian pantheon. These cults are a largely Chaskan phenomenon, rarely in few other parts of the world.

Description

Cults to the Blind Witness often share few similarities. Most center their beliefs around the core tenets and interests of the god - that is, gaining an understanding of the opportunities and possibilities that have passed by - but others take wildly different forms. The cults have displayed a willingness to syncretize with other Chaskan deities, hero-cults, and other religious practices, to such a degree that some are only tenuously recognizable as worshiping the Blind Witness.

Some scholars of religious matter consider any Chaskan worship of the Blind Witness to be cult-like, as the deity has a very recent history with that pantheon and their followers, even the more mainline ones, tend to be quite insular.
