GorranLooking at this from a real world perspective: Would you grant your most wanted criminal (-100 fame) any amount of clemency just because they stopped being affiliated with another group you consider enemies?
I thought we were talking religions. Isn't forgivenees the most basic tenet of most religions ?
No lets talk serious real life perspectives......Your a Red Sox (baseball) fan and ya hate the Yankees. Alex Rodriguez gets traded to the Red Sox.....batting .342, 54 HRs and 164 RBIs.....ya love em or hate him ? :) Substitute your favorite sport, most well known player, and biggest rivalry if not a baeball fan.
Gak, hate sports. :)
As far as comparing Kami/Karavan to RL religion & forgiveness: Most places of worship don't have temple guards that kill non-believers (negative fame) on sight. :D I also went with the criminal aspect to specifically avoid dancing on religion . . . "Danger, Will Robinson, danger!"
Having said that and thinking about what you wrote does suggest a very simple way to help those with extreme negative fame: Kami and Karavan versions of missionaries. If your fame is below -50 and you are neutral cult, then you can serve (do missions for) these Kami/Karavan that will raise your fame to -50. From there, you would have to raise your fame further in the usual way.
Possible scenario:
Must renounce opposite cult alignment. If you are a Disciple or Follower then these missions are not available.
Must visit the Kami/Karavan missionary/recruiter in each land and complete their missions.
Missions are to kill 2 enemy tribe members from each enemy tribe in each region in that land.
Once all missions from all lands are complete, fame is raised to -50.
