[QUOTE="Paka, post: 815, member: 100"] [b]Supplemental Jade Forest Religions[/b] Supplemental Jade Forest Religions (so far) Halfling Patron Saints - Halflings in this world do not have organized religions as humans know it. There is a collection of Patron Saints to Hobbit-like ideas: Wine, Slings and Stealth, Family, Good Meals, etc. A Halfling might say a prayer to a Saint or even carry a little medallion with them to bring luck in this area but as of now, there isn't an organized church, per se. A Halfing Priest is someone who knows the name and stories of all of the Saints, carrying medallions for all of them and as such is a Cleric in game terms. However, there isn't a Halfing Pope guy with a little hat and Cardinals and such (but it is a hysterical image) or there isn't an organized church. Domains: Trickery, Good, Protection God of the Golden Sun - The God of the Golden Empire is a glaring and unforgiving God. In the current Golden Church this God's rise to glory is traced along with the slumbering Golden Dragon. It is said that the Gold put him on his fiery throne and the Golden Sun's wrath and fury come out in the Gold's Holy Breath. The Priests of this religions were once a force to be reckoned with and churches to this God could be found in every corner of the Earth but the Church has seen a decline with the slumber of the Gold. The Clerics and Paladins have been shining up their armor, ready for the Gold's awakening. Domains: Air, Protection, Sun, Fire The Owl of Ulula - A powerful Totem that keeps people safe from the Creatures of the Night. The Owl once had a powerful army for defending the innocent against such threats. Most nobles had a Cleric, Paladin or Monk from the Order of Ulula in their household but now the Clerics and Paladins are not the power they once were and the Monks are all but unknown. Even today the Paladins and Clerics are brave and good, defending the weak from undead and Demonic threats and keeping the law; they just aren't as well known outside of the Jade Forest anymore. Domains: Protection, Good, Healing, Law, Knowledge Bahamut - In a world where Dragons are the power behind nations, it only makes sense that Draconic Gods make their way into human homes. Bahamut is the fatherly diety of Dragonkind. He married Tiamat and their love and conflict made the universe. His teachings speak of wisdom, harsh but fair justice and thinking beyond one's own generation in order to leave something for your kin. His priests and paladins are known for dispensing justice and wisdom. Domains: Law, Good, Strength, Fire Tiamat - Tiamat and her followers are more prone to battle rather than thought and diplomacy. She is prayed to not only in times of battle but in times of harvest and when the hearth needs protection. As befitting a Goddess with five heads, there are many different approaches to worshipping Tiamat from evil Dragon Cults to friendly elemental readings of her ideologies. Her Priestess and Paladins are known for their martial prowess and fearless attacking in battle. Domains: Earth, Destruction, Strength, Chaos, Earth, Fire, Air, Water, King of the Fey - Those who worship the King of the Fey do not worship the Faery on the throne as much as the crown and the throne and what they represent, mystery, intrigue, the changing of the seasons. The King's Clerics and Paladins are many of the courtiers and knights of his the Seelie and Unseelie courts. They are not arranged into churches as much as political cliques. It is not a religion that humans easily understand and the Fey like it that way. Domains: Law, Magic, Luck, Plant Queen of the Fey - The worship of the Queen is to make political games and mischief one's life. Like the King, the religion is not something that humans have an easy time understanding. The Queen's Clerics are often seen as troublemakers and ne'er-do-wells in and out of the Elven Courts but their political advice is something that is treasured and feared. Domains: Chaos, Trickery, Knowledge, Animal Grummsh, He-Who-Never-Sleeps - Most humans would say that Grumsh is an evil and angry God. Shamans of Grumsh would argue that those who judge Grummsh too harshly have never ahd to live the difficult life of an Orc. This life is difficult because Grummsh was tricked out of the Orc's rightful homeland during the creation of all things. Shamans of Grummsh are angry and tough, leading the Orcish tribal leaders with their magicks and visions. Domains: Evil, Chaos, Strength, War [/QUOTE]
