Church of Astaroth

Astaroth's followers do not have formal churches, as they are often found across continents and do not often contact each other. Those who wish to join the church usually know very little about any actual dogma-- They either develop their own philosophies, or attempt to learn what they can from books about the gods. The only connecting aspect of the church is the butterfly, symbol of Astaroth and symbol of growth. Because there's no formal society, the church titles often vary. Most commonly, however, they are related to the butterfly.
