You joined an extremist sect, perhaps of a death god or a secular group. Either way, they seek the extinction of all living things, and it falls to them exterminate as many people as they can. To this end, the cultists devised killing techniques drawn from the power of their faith alone, and their best killers ventured out in the darkest hours to do the bidding of their grim master. Obviously, they made many enemies and now just a handful remain. You decide if you adhere to the principles of this cult or if you joined them merely to learn their methods.
