Cultists

Many Super Villains should consider getting a Cult. They double as Henchmen and Worshippers, which you should get a lot of if you have a lot of Self Esteem. Just get some mindless followers led by a power-loving Cult Leader (Preferably you) that worship some Ancient, Almighty God (Again, preferably you), a few dozen young virgins to sacrifice and you have a cult. Consider the Advantages and Disadvantages of a Cult before you get them.

Pros

 * They think you're a God! (And all Villains want to be a God.)
 * They provide countless henchemen into your ranks.
 * There funding can help you get Golden Statues, Multiple Candles and awesome thrones that also decorate your churches.
 * Again, they think you're a God!

Cons

 * It becomes much harder to recruit from other religions.
 * You have to pay for Churches.
 * You have to deal with more incompetant Henchmen who do things like blow up your base and join cults.

Walking Sacrifice
Mostly made up of brainwashed kids, High teens, Orphaned Children and Fanatic Warriors who should fill in as sacrifices if needed. Good for chanting in Latin, helping heroes sneak into the Church by wearing a hooded cloak and dying in large numbers so their blood can fill the Pit of Despair.

Warrior Cultist
After a few months as a Walking Sacrifice we'll give you something sharp, cover you in Tattoos and force you into a leather skirt. Then you'll be able to fight and die to capture more slaves, kill your enemies and do whatever you want. They're pretty cool, and can yell in Hebrew for some reason. As soon as you promote them they learn Hebrew. It's weird.

Shaman
A Shaman/ Witch-Doctor/ Priest is a Veteran Cultist who does great chanting and makes mutilation holy. They devote their lives to their God and will serve you until they die, which should happen pretty soon if they keep going the way they're going.

God
Hopefully you, the point of the Cult's worshipping. If not you, kill the current "God" and claim to be his son/daughter. You get to eat like a King, get gold statues of you and get people to chant your name. You even get to wear cool things, like Skull Hats, Crowns and capes. Everyone loves capes. Get a cape.
