Greetings, from Onyx.

Hey guys, got a brief access. I can't stay long, and still quite a while after I get any more time to spend here, but anyway, read on.

I read some of the Omni Aura's and Light of the Moon's ideas about the future, and I think it's cool, you should go on with it. Additionally, prepare for the possibility of me not returning at all, so when I say you take the lead as you see fit, Neph, I mean it. Change whatever you like, I trust you judgment, and your ideological perspective as I know them are accepted by me.

Additionally, I have some proposals and changes that you should consider making. Strictly optional, take note.

Firstly, I advise to make the Efi into formal rank classes, divided by three... Wings, if you will.
Ultimately, I'm talking about three sub-devisions, in which any Efi could take part of, even if part of the other.
Mainly, each of the three factions will be focused on it's own set of ideals, corresponding with the Efi.
Those three faction will consist of four inner classes for each, sorted by interest and experience. Perhaps we could further formalize it later on. The description is as follows, randomly organized as they are equal.

A. The first one would focus on act. The main ideals are (inner) strength and justice, and is consisting the following classes, intermediate to master levels:
1. Warrior
2. Knight
3. Paladin
4. Blade of Light
This wing focuses on physical aid to the world, believing in justice and moral principles, administering social welfare, and living with the faith that any positive energy they give to the world will be returned to them, in times, many times more. They are also the ones who carries heavy weaponry (AF/KIA agents in here).

B. This one puts more focus on religion and spirituality, and it's main ideals are faith and health.
1. Priest
2. Healer
3. Wandering Healer
4. World Healer
This wing, as said, is focusing on spiritual enlightenment and seeking the Nirvana. They believe in healing, of both the body and sole, and they practice channeling celestial energy of love into this plain. Here are the theologians and philosophers.

C. This one focuses on the mind, and the main ideals are wisdom and knowledge.
1. Scholar
2. Teacher
3. Wise
4. Infinite Wisdom
This wing is always in pursuit of knowledge, with the desire to know as much as possible about everything in the world. Forever seeking the truth, they practice logic and science in a ways the will bring the greatest benefit, as well as they strive for personal self-development of the mind.

* Naturally, when mentioned, the word Efi goes prior to any of those titles. Note that those titles are not meant to replace each Efi's unique title.
Now, I suppose the ranks could be given as a common decision of worthiness, but it's a pretty loose idea. Personally, I see myself taking part in all of the factions. With my combat background, I suppose I see myself as a Efi Paladin rank, while in the third one, being a senior Efi, I think I qualify as a Teacher (I qualify you as Wise, Neph). Lastly, with my common occupation these days, I suppose I am qualified as a Wandering Healer.
Now, the 4th rank in each set, lets say it is the ultimate level to which everybody inspire, but they are not really reachable in our current forms.

Now, I wish you to assign those levels to yourself as well, in any faction you wish to take part in. For example, I could definitely see Extreme in the first and last ones.

Mentioning Extreme, this bring me to my next point.
I want to mold the extremeism's ideology into the Efi, and make it one. Since you're a one-man-religion, here's what I propose. You said you won't join the Efi until it will take greater involvement in science, right?
Well, look. The Efi cares about the planet, yes? The Efi cares about health, as well. And knowledge is one of our ideals, you know.
Currently, the Efi is well concern about global warming and the negative effects of human technology on the surrounding. SO let's say we need you to find a solution to all of the problems involved, making life better on this planet. Hmph, research colonizing Mars, if you will.
You'll definitely be a good addition to the knowledge portion of the Efi. What do you say? X-Ray?


One last thing... Quit calling me "His Holiness the 1st Patriarch of Karnali", it's frightening . If you insist making a prophet/messiah, pick a milder title .
Love,
