Yes, that was my favorite module. I am trying to capture the weirdness of Tharizdun so that he can be used in GURPS DF. I feel Tharizdun needs to be alien and very strange. He should not be like a demon lord or evil god that worshippers can communicate with and that grants clerical powers, I want worshippers to be crazy fools who have no idea what they are doing. Plus psionics fits the wierd powers better that clerical magic.

Well the old Deities & Demigods book showed that all or most of the gods & heroes also had Psionics in addition to clerical powers and/or mage powers.

We're actually kind of on the same page here. Those worshipers I would call wachawi - witches. Unnatural mutants driven to destroy life and happiness. If it helps you any, their organization is called Njama. They meet in secret places in the dreamworld and share their depravities.
