Lamb

The Lamb is the player-controlled cult leader in Cult of the Lamb. Sacrificed by the four Bishops as the last of its kind, the Lamb is resurrected by the imprisoned One Who Waits and ordered to build a cult in return.

The Lamb as founder of a new cult

Its personality depends partly on player choices, ranging from benevolent shepherd to ruthless tyrant. The central motivation is survival, followed by deciding whether to remain a servant or claim divine power independently.

The Red Crown, follower management, and rebellion against a god

The Lamb fights with weapons, curses, tarot powers, and the Red Crown while managing followers, rituals, resources, and doctrine. Defeating the Bishops and confronting the One Who Waits determines the cult's final relationship with its former god.
