Adherents of the Creed are called Valthan Cultists, and their core commitment is to a belief that their obedience and service will one day bring all the realms under the control of the Lord of Many. Valthan Cultists understand the end times, as they have sometimes called it, as a storm before the great calm. A great war against the other faiths will be required before the ushering of paradise. Only once their power has been stripped from them, and their worldly representatives divested of their thrones, do the Valthan Cultists believe their plan will see fruition. 

While the Valthan Cultists do not have specific moral dictates, they tend to believe in altered or twisted versions of common moral practices in other faiths. For example, a Valthan Cultist might believe in freedom, but the notion of freedom is far removed from that of a Heartlander Triumite. In this case, a Valthan Cultist might believe that freedom constitutes the ability to do whatever one wants, without restraint. Where a Triumite believes in the sacrament of marriage, a Valthan Cultist believes in polygamy. The relativist agreement that morality is not governed by a set code often leads to feuds between the different cults. The common theme of most cults is the pursuit of power, personal or political. It is their defining feature in the absence of code or custom.
