Message: <blockquote data-quote="Arkhandus" data-source="post: 2196906" data-attributes="member: 13966">Contribution:While Dar is the god of law and judgement, determining who is worthy or unworthy, pious or false, honorable or disgraceful, and what their fates should be, it is the gods Callach and Delar who enforce and carry out the decrees of Dar in such matters.  Callach is one of Dar's brothers in mythology, and Delar is a minor god depicted as either the son, grandson, or nephew of Dar, either by some lesser goddess or mortal woman depending on the tale-teller.Callach carries out Dar's judgements in most cases, executing or destroying those deemed unworthy of life, for Dar to imprison their souls, though Callach is often depicted as carrying out his own destructive or cruel brands of justice on his own whim.  Delar is a counterpoint to Callach, a bit more benign and honorable, maintaining the divine balance, directing his paladins and druids to ensure the decrees of Dar are properly handled.  However, like Callach, Delar diverges slightly from Dar's judgements, being a bit more merciful and noble as opposed to Callach's severity and icy demeanor.  The two deities manage to more or less fulfill Dar's judgements through their competition and conflicting methods.Legend says that Callach used to be the dominant god in this triumvirate, but was gradually relegated to a more minor role by Tarsinus and Dar during some conflicts in the divine family.  Of course, this legend is largely perpetuated by the Faith of Callach in Ceb'Rehyn, so may be false considering the loss of libraries and records during the destructive War of Deadly Voices.</blockquote>
