Welcome to the Fansus, Aspirant.
The Fansus is the fan-made version of the Mansus from Cultist Simulator, with alternative Hours and Histories. Join us on the Cultist Simulator Discord if you wish to participate.
This is a fan project that is not officially endorsed by Weather Factory in any way.
There are currently three active versions of the Fansus, due to space constraints.
Here's the most recent Hour template, which lacks any Fansus-Specific elements.

The First Fansus
The First Fansus is the House of the Serpent, or alternatively the Sea Dragon's Palace. The Hours strive against each other in the aftermath of the loss of the Sixth History, and the rise of the Gods-from-Steel. Their capital city is The First City
The Sea-Dragon's Palace has it's own lores, and it's own expeditions.
The House of the Serpent is a shadow of it's former self, with the venerable former undisputed ruler of the House, the Great Serpent, having disappeared into Nowhere. Now, many successors strive for power, with alliances being formed and broken all across the Histories. The newly formed Gods-from-Steel drive ever-forward towards their dream of assimilating all within the House, and are opposed by Hours such as the Architeuthian, the Peacock, and The-Apple-in-the-Eye, to name a few, though each have their own secret agendas. The 'children' of the Great Serpent, the Anaconda and the Tail, strive against each other in an Ourobourine conflict, drawing other Hours into a war between 'Doors' and 'Keys', resulting in the War of the Doors and the almost destruction of the Fourth History.

The Histories
- The First History: once a promising world, now plunged in a dark age with no end in sight. Original home of the Aged Bones and the Vizier.
- The Second History: A world rich in magic once blessed by the Hours, now forever blighted by the hubris of man.
- The Third History: the history of Man, which gave rise to Cortez, now known as Old Tarnished.
- The Fourth History: once untouched by the Hours through a truce, now fervently and openly against any occult intervention following the creation of the Joined.
- The Fifth History: a Key-infested History and the reason why other Hours point to the need for the Gilded Gate.
- The Sixth History: the devoured History, of which little remains.
The Second Fansus
The Second Fansus is the House of Earth and Sky, where the Bird descends to touch the earth, and the Worm rises to meet the heavens. (Also Bears have been known to hang about sometimes.)

NinthHungering History, a.k.a. the History of False Histories: which even the Hours rejected, all but one.
The Third Fansus
The Third Fansus is the Desmoterion, the Place of Chains. It is also known as the Gaol, House of the Remanded and the Cloister to the Uncorrected. In order to disculpate themselves from a cosmical, atrocious bloodshed, the Hours remain there, secluded amongst themselves, using human agents as envoys, spies and advocates. The physical epicenter of their shady dealings (which they can't enter themselves) lies in Avenoir, the Black Light District.

The Histories
Before the Collision of the two original Mansi, there were two Histories, one for each existing Mansus; however, when the Mansi collided, the Histories did, too. What remains now is for humans as hard to distinguish as for Hours.
