The Divine Ones

The Gods Katrina The godess is a shadowy figure, whose dark long hair confuses itself with her long flowing dress. Her skin is white as milk, with a low glow that deeply contrasts with the darkness of her hair and dress. She has dark deep eyes, and shows very little emotions. She moves, or rather, flows, softly, and her voice is extremely melodic and harmonic, though chilling cold. She advocates study, practice of arts, meditation and reason above all. Korroth The god is a towering being whose hair seems to shift according to the position and illumination they are seen in, ranging from pale blond, white, silverly or gray. His skin is white-transparent, with big blue and red vessels showing across it. Usually clad in armor, wearing with a silver crown and holding a big weapon, like a large sword, axe or morning star. He protects those who follow the path of the warrior, preaching honor, courage and strength above all. Vlan The Hellborn is depicted as a muscular man only clad in the skins of animals or beasts, usually wielding not more than a primitive weapon such as a stone or metal axe. He is the patron of freedom, revolt and combat against superior forces. Charkh The Executioner has never any piece of flesh exposed in the representations given to him. He is always in full-clad armor, sometimes on a horse wielding a large tournament lance, sometimes on foot wearing just a very ornamented crown and a scepter. He blesses those who make out of hierarchy, rule and order their lives. Nemordiabel The Lieutenant is depicted as a tall man of lean body build, with rather simple armor and clothes. He is the representation of loyalty, protection and altruism. Nalucht The Sweet Tongue is depicted as hooded figure in the dark, sometimes wielding a book, a scepter and/or a dagger, depending which side of his is intended to be represented. His own flesh is not depicted, and his hands, when visible, are covered by gloves. He represents wit, study, oratory, plotting, politics and sometimes betrayal (though usually for altruist motives). Nasia The Lioness has different representations, sometimes being a female warrior in heavy golden-decorated armor, sometimes an actual lioness, and sometimes a seemingly-frail feminine figure along a lion or lioness. She is associated with justice, law, motherly protection, morals and sometimes ethics. Tyka The Amazon has been called the "female Vlan", for its obvious similarity, though she has more varied representations. Not only she is depicted as a primitive female warrior, but sometimes as an armor-clad one, and even as a horsewoman. She is associated with battle, adventure and glory. Waren The Princess is depicted as a noblewoman, of varying richness, normally with the traces considered aesthetically desirable in the given culture. She is given the accessories normally related to administration and trade, such as scrolls, pen and ink, purses and gold, scales and sometimes symbols of nobility and royalty, such as jewelry, rings, and even a crown and/or a scepter. She both represents administration, trade, loyalty, service, honesty as nobility, heritage and even royalty. Pathroq The Devourer is not usually represented, but his few depictions are almost all presenting him in monstrous, fiery or shadowed forms, savage and crude. Blood, darkness, burnt flesh and rusty metal are usually associated with him. He is associated with destruction in it's most pure form. Calanthe The "Unifier" is projected as a young woman dressed in translucent white robes. She has pale snow skin - that glows warmly in the light and brightly in the dark - navy blue eyes that reflect the depths of the oceans, and immaculate gold tresses that neatly dress her shoulders. Her voice is tranquil, serene, yet invoking of powerful sensations when need be. She preaches for unity and its accompanying virtues - loyalty, verity, and repentance - while protecting the innocent. The Old Gods Aetheris Pyrism is a truly polytheistic religion, which acknowledges other Gods besides those inscribed in its pantheon. While their exact description and extent of their power may be subject of controversy, the need to respect them as beings above our station is not. Tyr and Zisa Deities of the old Order of St. Iestyn, they are worshiped by some Pyrists heir to their tradition. They are associated with order. The Holy Spirits The Holy Spirits are the inhabitants and travelers of the Celestial Sea. They are the Keepers (of the Lighthouse Stars) and the Captains (of the Star Ships), and not much yet has been recorded about them. They are thought to travel between the Solar Realm and the edges of the World, making the connection between the Mortal Realm and the Divine.

The Unholy Ones

Fz'Ar The Dark Underlord is the herald of darkness, bringer of madness, source of fear and nightmares. Soft music, vapor, candles, incense and perfumes are usually employed to drive his influence away. Najch'Akuy The Foul Underlord is the father of the undead, bringer of plague, sickness and decay. Salt, alcohol, herbal infusions and spider webs are usually employed when attempting to remove his influence from a person or place. Ukhra The Nothingness, also known as the Void, Ukhra is the embodiment of pure chaos, and also, conversely, of the supreme order in the negative pure static sense, as in a frozen and dead scene. He can be considered the highest enemy of all the gods, and even of the demons and undead lords. He is considered to be a sleeping entity and nobody is known to pray him or pay him respect, nor even curse him, in fear of waking him up.
