==Worship==
===Cult===
None worship the Partisan, for that runs against his ideals of the ascension of man to equality with the Hours of the Mansus. His ideals, however, proliferate among the more radical and ambitious of the mortals and Names and Long in the Histories in their suppressed secret clubs and organizations. Here, his allies mark themselves as the Society for Anthropological Advancement. There, the Internationalist Club. One day it will be they, claims the Partisan, who will cast off their masks, break the shackles of man and lead it to a Glorious future.

|start_description = It is a story told by professors of both the esoteric histories and political theory that in their most heated discussions, a smiling lady shows up burning with light and change and talks all their ears off. They wake up the next day with the strange urge to overthrow an order they do not remember.

===The Mansus===
====The Promised Door====
When he first rose against the order of the heavens, the Partisan built a gate and built a door. When the Hours first drove him out with spear and fire, they broke one of their most cherished laws and drowned that door. Still it lies somewhere, with a past that is-not anymore.

** Start Text: And Lo, he promised, this was the Way, the Truth, and the Life. We would all live forever if so we sought, and we would forever revel in endless visions of an unseen glory and an ever-light. But now the path is closed and the way is lost and the Golden Thread lost to us for they who feared and they who hated drowned it in their foul triumph
** End Text: And ere it was drowned ever so thoroughly that even beside the ocean where they perpetrated their foul crime you could speak these words and hear nothing. But to those who know and remember a creed suppressed outside one History, they will perhaps smile and perhaps call you comrade.
** Gives: Revolutionary Passcode
