Founded upon the fire-and-brimstone, apocalyptic visions of Bastion Teodorus Raines, the branch of the Church of Ezra based in Nevuchar Springs is perhaps the most zealous (and even fanatical) branch in weeding out the Legions of the Night that supposedly prey upon the faithful of Ezra. It is also the youngest (though not necessarily the last) branch, established only in 751 BC in the wake of the Requiem. Mostly Lawful Evil in alignment, the Nevuchar Springs Zealots engage in many extremist practices to prepare for the impending Time of Unparalleled Darkness. These include religious conversion through coercion and performing torture and experiments] upon the presumed agents of the Night's Legions to discover their vulnerabilities.[1]

The faith has spread through the eastern parts of Darkon as the Eternal Order has been crumbling.[2] This expansion has not been peaceful, as the Nevuchar Spring anchorites have been feuding with the faithful of Darkon's state religion. In fact, the Nevuchar Springs anchorites displaced and replaced the Eternal Order clerics from at least two temples. These include the Last Redoubt in Nevuchar Springs and The Ward of Perdition in Maykle[1]

Bastione Raines faces some degree of faces opposition within The drift of the Nevuchar Spring sect towards darkness has caused many dissidents in the faith to label Teodorus as mad.[2] However, converts still continue to pick up. Another prophet, Bailey Lacrese, within the Mordentish Sect, has experienced visions of the corruption of the Nevuchar Springs sect leading the latter to take up arms against and wiping out the Mordentish Sect. The Mordentish have been covertly building the Blessed Army of Ezra in preparation for this great conflict.[3]
