A cult centered around [[Alexandria Avatar]] (also referred to as the [[Sorcerer Queen]], or otherwise simply as The Lady) whose dogma teaches that she is [[Alexandria]] reborn. Its activity is centered in [[Nia-Agliare]], but it has a presence (well-funded and -staffed) in a large area around that city. It operates openly as a proselytizing faith, passing out cheaply printed texts in massive quantities. The members are all singularly minded and fanatically devoted to the cause. The [[:Category:Bounty Hunters|Bounty Hunters]], through investigation, have found evidence that they are sacrificing undesirables and other forgotten people for an unknown, magical purpose (as a result of these efforts, practice of the Neo-Alexandrian faith is banned in [[Crestence]]).

While they have met obstacles in Crestence and Wydmoor that have temporarily stymied their growth in the region, they still have a strong foothold in [[Estrabule]]. They have become well-integrated into the community there, and have evidently grown beyond needing to harvest undesirables in as obvious a way as in the other cities. Some of the merchant houses have even switched their religious alliance and have not immediately foundered, a significant development.
 
Several specializations of its members have been observed:
 
* At the lowest rank
** Castigators, unarmed mage-slayers (monk class, mage slayer feat)
** Glossolalists, dual-wielding rapier trance fighters (barbarian class, dual-wielding feat)
** Scribners, ranged magic-users (warlock class, ''guiding bolt'', ''create bonfire'', etc)
* Leading the above
** Evangelists, enchanters (bard class, ''suggestion'', ''sleep'', etc)
 
Additionally, the names of some ranking officers of militant factions within the cult are known.
 
* [[Wan-Wu of the West]], a shapeshifting, teleporting mind-reader
* [[Drakaar the Mosite]], probably an antipaladin
* [[Katalin the Blood Scribe]], probably some witchy weirdo
