-===== Regards to Undead =====
+=====Regards to Mortal=====
+The Faceless One seems to actually be more proactive about
+contacting mortals than other deities. There is speculation on whether this is
+actually the Faceless One, but followers sometimes will hear a whisper from the
+shadows, usually only a single word, offering a clue of where to go, or who to
+find.
-Undead are regularly called upon by the faithful, seen as one of numerous means to their desired ends.
+=====Regards to Undead=====
+Undead are regularly called upon by the Church of The Faceless One, and are seen as one of numerous means to their desired ends. His faithful are very aware that the use of undead is shunned in most societies across the realm and will take care not to summon undead openly or wantonly to avoid detection and persecution.
-===== Regards to Outsiders =====
+=====Regards to Outsiders=====
-The faithful see all outsiders as an opportunity, but they generally despise good-aligned celestials, deva, and devils. They revere shadow creatures and demons.

-The world and all its treasures are open for the taking, for those of quick wit and subtle hands.  Do not be bound by the petty rules and standards of 'civilization', for in the end they are merely illusions, a veneer of order to hide the true chaos that lies in every heart.  A deception can be as sharp a tool as a blade, and each has its uses.  Learn to blur the lines between truth and fiction, so that others may not perceive the difference; honesty is for fools, but apparent honesty is valuable indeed.  Force becomes unnecessary when others can be manipulated into action, or to thinking a decision is of their own free will.  Trust in the shadows, for the bright way makes for easy targets.
+Everything around you; the world, the people, the social structures;
+these things are all predicated on a fundamental lie. Underneath it all there is
+an underlying truth. Those who know this truth will open their eyes and be set
+free. Cast aside your beliefs. Use the world. Use its lies, its deception, and
+its secrets to gain mastery over your world and your soul, and thus, your
+destiny. Cloak your intentions, and cloak the dagger in your hand as you strike
+at the heart of this deception which has ensnared you in its prison. Shed your
+most basic preconceptions of reality using any and all tools at your disposal.
+Through lies, attain Truth. Through death embrace eternal life. Slay your
+friends and embrace your enemies. Tear the world out from the roots so that you
+may achieve paradise.
