Denominations
The Craftist religion is split into two denominations, these being the Repertum and Kobi delineations.
Repertum
The Repertum denomination worships the prophet "Repertum" who was a manifestation of The Craft. It is the more unique of the two denominations.
Kobi
The Kobi denomination's only difference from Repertum is the prophet itself, who is referred to as "Kobi." The denomination is closely related to Kobism.
