As listed in the above post of "Dark Shadows" the "Heretic" classification is what I used two different times:
Within Midgard USA under Zan E., I was in the process of creating a faction that was called "Seekers of Faith" which was a faith based on the Old Gods found on Midgard. It was a faith of the collected old gods that were Earth, Sky, Fire, Water, Society, and Knowledge (which Moorlock was Old God of Knowledge). All the players that were with me to stand up this faction (10 Players with 20 declared Heretic clans) were using that Heretic faction for one year.
Within Midgard UK under Stephen Wier, I was working on standing up "The Cult of the Dark One". We had just started working towards that goal, it was a NPC faction within the game for Midgard USA and Midgard UK but we were bringing it Live/Open in the game for players to actually declare for and play as a active Live PC faction.
It has been pointed out that the Cult has aided in standing up and being a benefactor for both the Cymru - Peoples Defender in Midgard USA, and the Seekers of Knowledge in Midgard UK. In both cases the Cult aided each of these factions to get started and then backed away to let them both grow on their own.
I view the Heretic faction as a roleplaying one. It is used to open the door to build other new religions faiths within the game. So it should be available.

Brother to Brother, for one and all. United we stand, and divided others will fall. Hear my call, and take up your arms with me as we bring Justice to all.
