Tenets: Ruck the Burned has come to incinerate the previous ways of life. Whereas before The Massacre the Famulus were slaves, they are now slave masters to a world that is physically lesser than them.

It also solidified that the Infernai were to be feared, not assumed to be frail and weak. All of those who follow Ruck must be Infernai, although he will allow the help of Noxai in limited capacities, and only as lesser.
