Depending on how you look at it you may get different conclusions. Applying those to the DB lead us to different results for the OP's question.

I think what Azura said made sense, and that's exactly why i hate Astrid and enjoyed watching the bitch burn. The cult part is way more interesting. That's where we diverge. I was really upset when Astrid died. As said in her wiki page, " She tires of the laws and restrictions that limit the Brotherhood, deciding that a sort of family-like unity benefits the members of the Brotherhood better than structure". I'm with her on this. I'll explain:

In my main character, I took all the decisions in-game based on my morals and what would I do if I were there. And, I sided with the DB. You may think that this fact says a lot about me, but I'm not currently an assassin and I don't plan on becoming one anywhen soon. But, I consider myself a son of Sithis. And my ultimate goal is to protect and care my Dark Brothers and Dark Sisters. That's why I also think that this "family-like" Dark Brotherhood is better than a rigid structure. So me and my brotherhood do our business for the common better of us, in the name of Sithis. Of course, a lot of us enjoy the work, heh. So you're saying you're evil?
