*'''Enochite Church''' - Heretical sect originating from a very early schism in Coscivian Orthodoxy. The Enochites accept as canonical the {{wp|Book of Enoch}}, follow the {{wp|Enoch caldendar}}, and preserve a greater scope of Judaïc practices than the Coscivian Orthoox. They have a secretive and still poorly-studied mystical tradition and place great emphasis on {{wp|angelology}}, with a particular focus on {{wp|Metatron}}. Although once fairly widespread across the South and the Baylands, the Enochites did not effectively compete with the institutionally stronger Coscivian Orthodox Church and became socially marginalised in the southestern Christian heartland. Missions and migrations to areas further west and north enabled the Enochite Church to persist in a dozen or so pockets scattered across [[Korlēdan]], [[Iunan]], [[Sixua]], and [[South Kirav]], where an estimated four {{wp|lakh}} live today, mostly in homogeneous Enochite villages and hamlets.


*'''Church of St. Torrent''' - Group of sixteen congregations under the authority of a bishop based in Saar-Hūrivilnum, [[Cascada]]. Best known for advancing theological arguments in favour of {{wp|filesharing}}.
