History

Out of the Republic of Ibladesh the Church of Ibladesh was born. Out of the ashes of war...and the betrayal of friends the Holy Church of Ibladesh was born. And as all things in life do...these deeds of enemies turned friend have come full circle and we find ourselves at war with those we once held dear and at peace with those we once called enemy. The history of this realm is rich and diverse and we seek to maintian that diversity with in our Theocracy.

The Church of Ibladesh offers a spiritual path, and a way of being that embraces a number of ideals and beliefs. This spiritual path teaches a belief in the fundamentally spiritual nature of life. A pantheon of gods and goddess exist to guide us on our spiritual path. We have had 4 gods revealed to us thus far through the faithful journey of Rainna, each of these gods brings us a special gift and dictates a different path…they are Ramsus, supreme leader… Sartan, god of war… Kokini, god of stealth and mischief and Tersea, god of trade and economics. The Church of Ibladesh tolerates diversity and recognizes that the gods work in mysterious ways, often times revealing only that which the people need to know at the moment they need to know it. We must recognize that none of us has the monopoly on truth, and diversity is both healthy and natural.

In our quest to honor our gods and live a spiritual life we embrace these goals….

Justice… it is our path…ordained by the gods to seek what is just and honorable in this world and to uphold and defend these rights for ourselves and for others.

Honor… it is our path…ordained by the gods to strive tolive an honorable life…one that shows respect to the people around us… the land we live off of ….The choices we make we make because they are the right and honorable thing to do not always however the easy thing to do.

Wisdom… it is our path…ordained by the gods to constantly challenge ourselves to study and learn…to gain the knowledge that will help us make wise decisions…to engage in dialogue that will challenge us to see the truth in the world around us by encouraging open minded and fair exchanges of information and discourse.

Creativity… it is our path…. ordained by the gods to recognize that we are meant to fully participate in life and that we are meant to express and share our creativity as much as we can.

Love… it is our path…. ordained by the gods to create a sense of community with in our realm…to encourage a love of each other by fostering the relationships between friends and family with in this community.

May you walk in beauty always...may you follow the path of the gods and prosper in Ibladesh.
