A cultist in Fable 2 is usually someone who has either joined the Dark or the Light. This depends on how many sacrifices you have made to the Temple of Shadows or how many donations you have put in at the Temple of Light.
Obviously they offered worship and sacrifices to the God. What else is a temple for? And btw, there were many temples to Apóllōn.
Long ago when animal sacrifices were done by the Levitical priests of the Hebrews many different animals were needed for the sacrifices. When Jesus was here on earth the priests and others were making money selling birds and animals to the Hebrews for them to offer as sacrifices. They were profiteering. They were basically dishonoring God and therefore Jesus called them a den of thieves.
No. Animal sacraficed stopped in 70 A.D. when the last temple in Jerusalem was destroyed. Clarification: Sacrifice was only applicable for unintended sin, and even then, was meaningless without atonement. Sacrifice can only be done in the Temple, when we are without the Temple, prayer replaces sacrifice.
if you are talking a bout people giving up things in life,all cultures made and make sacrifices. If you are talking about animals there are many pagan cultures that do.
There were undoubtedly many, particularly at the time of the three festivals when everyone in the country traveled to the temple ... Passover, Shavuot, and Sukkot. But in the sense of "temple virgins" who somehow participated in the religious services there, no, there were none. Likewise, there were no human sacrifices there either.
Every Jew was expected to make sacrifices at the Temple in Jerusalem. Those who could afford to do so would purchase a lamb for sacrifice. The very poor would by a pair of sparrows for sacrifice. During Roman times, the currency used in Judea was subject to inflation, but haggling over price was not acceptable in the Temple environment, so the more stable Syrian currency was substituted. The role of the moneychangers was to provide the Syrian currency needed to buy the sacrificial offering. Sacrifices were made at the birth of a son and at the Passover, as well as to give thanks when a prayer was answered.

A minimum of two; one in the morning and one in the late afternoon (Numbers 28).

Human sacrifices have been made to various gods and rulers throughout human history. The Aztecs and Mayans used to routinely sacrifice people to their gods, as did many other ancient cultures.
The Jewish position is that in the days of the Temple, it was impermissible for a person to bring a sin sacrifice until after they had repented, and in the case of sins against another person, until after they had made appropriate restitution. Ideally, the victim must forgive the sinner, and the Jewish position is that failure to forgive after receiving adequate restitution and evidence of contrition is itself a sin. Many of the prophets had very strong things to say about those who made empty sacrifices, that is, those made without repentance or restitution.
