De Ordine Orcorum Tenebrarum

De Ordine Orcorum tenebrarum (Latin for "The Chaotic Order") is an ancient cult that worships the supreme deity known as Nox'Faragdum. It began in the year 413 BCE, when a young Scolelian Peasant named Notch claimed to be the earthly incarnation of the Supreme God Dio'Domoa.

The Original Cult
The Original Cult was founded by a Scolelian Scholar named Parquorius Salanzarus. Salanzarus did not believe that Notch was the earthly form of Dio'Domoa, and had an extreme hatred of him. Because of this, he began researching the ancient prophecies, and discovered a long forgotten text known as The Chronicle of Darkness.

The text describes a long-forgotten deity known as Nox'Faragdum, the brother of Dio'Domoa. The text chronicles the burning of the ancient city of Xull, which occured in 1214 BCE, after a man created an altar to Nox'Faragdum, inviting him into the mortal world to purge it of all things good. According to the text, an oracle managed to trap Nox'Faragdum in an alternate dimension by sacrificing himself on the altar while invoking Dio'Domoa.

Salanzarus eventually traveled to the site of Xull, where he found the altar and the now decayed remains of the oracle. He copied the plans for the altar, and, after returning to Scolelilia, recruited several monks to help him construct a secret temple to Nox'Faragdum underneath his home. Together, Salanzarus and these monks became the first'' Ordine Orcorum TenebrarumI. ''

Nox'Faragdum Returns
On 13 October 413, the cult prepared to perform a demonic ritual that would open the gateway to Nox'Faragdum's Dimension. They sacrificed the lives of seven innocent farmers on the altar, and lit the central block of Netherack on fire. Upon being lit, the fire turned black as the Redstone Torches began glowing brighter, releasing an intense amount of energy. Suddenly, a storm formed above the altar. A single bolt of lightning struck the the Netherack, and a portal briefly opened over the altar. Out of this portal emerged this spirit of Nox'Faragdum, which possessed Salanzarus' body. After he was possessed, Salanzarus brutally murdered the other members of the cult, set fire to the temple, and destroyed the altar so that he could not be returned to his dimension.

Nox'Faragdum then went to the surface of the village and proceeded to completely obliterate it. Every citizen was killed, every house was burned, and every field had the nutrients sucked from its soil.

However, Notch, who had been hunting during the attack, returned and fought Nox'Faragdum. The battle waged for hours, but eventually, Notch, now known to be Dio'Domoa, gained the upper hand, and using his power, sealed Nox'Faragdum into the darkest pit of the Void.

The Dark Chronicle is Rediscovered
In 2018, Fxceless Trees discovered a replica of The Dark Chronicle while rebuilding a section of PGXD_Arkham that had been damaged in a Redstone Failure. It was hidden in the Arkhan Vault, and presumably destroyed in the explosion.
