The Tchortists are a faction.
Description
- This section needs expansion with general info.
At a first glance, the tchortists are a mysterious pseudo-scientific/religious organization who worship a being called Tchort. They are usually easily recognizable from the Tchortist Robes they wear.

Ranks
These are the main Tchortist ranks, as encountered in Underrail.
| Preservation section | Investigation section | Propagation section | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Founder | Eidein | ||
| Section leader | Harmost | Episkopos | Provost |
| Higher section ranks | Mediant | Principal Investigators (biology, chemistry, physics) |
Curator, Praepostor |
| Middle section ranks | Efreitors | Investigators | Ministers |
| Lower section ranks | Rassophores (Ekrixophores, Pirophores, Skopeftophores, Recombinants) |
Assistant Investigators | Acolytes, Missionaries |
| Trainees | Novitiates | ||
| Candidates | Postulants | ||
Additionally, ministers are split into assistant ministers, associate ministers and (full) ministers, but this distinction is not clear in Underrail. Judicator is a rank of the judicatory section which does not have significant role or presence in Underrail. Monsignor is a honorary title that can be granted regardless of rank.
