Some More Ideas

Name - Illac Moratlis Consumma - not the best latin, but losely translates to the "Path to mortal Perfection"

My only addition is that I would like the religion to focus on the paths or journeys required to ascend to noble status. The total journey would require the peasant to follow multiple paths, which are basically reflected in the maxims so far. For example you could have the "Path of Duty" which corresponds to "To refrain from the disobeying of ones superior" "Path of Truth" which corresponds "To refrain from lying" etc

These paths continue once you reach noble status, but become more complex. So Path of Duty now also incorporates your duties to the peasants below you, as well as your duty to those nobles who command you. There could also be some new paths once your a noble now that your a more perfect being the demands on you should be greater before ascending to the next level.

Yes It is for real.

My character Mathias and the Character Conrac in D'Hara are currently the one working on creating the religion. Though I have currently taken up most of the planning and such. I thank you for your suggestions and will consider them. Also If you come up with any more ideas please post them. --Mathias

You cannot possibly be suggesting, on the SMA island, a religion that promotes the belief that commoners can become nobles by acting nice. That is so anathema to the entire concept of nobility. Commoners are commoners. They always were, and always will be. Or that a noble could become a commoner just by being mean to commoners. Commoners are chattel. They exist to be exploited for the convenience and luxury of the nobility. I strongly urge you to reconsider. Do this on some other island. It has no place on Dwilight. (Not that I think it has any place at all in BattleMaster, but definietly not on Dwilight) --Indirik 04:06, 16 January 2009 (CET)

Really has no place. The religion is to be used to keep the commoners in line. With the hope that they have the chance to become a noble one day. BUt really no place on Dwilight. I feel you should look at some of the other religions here first before saying that I am leaving SMA. Take the WOTD. Really a belief in reincarnation is worse than worshiping dragons? Even when the nobles who worship said dragons often write rps about seeing them in the flesh. I suggest you take back that comment, and do more research before making such again.

So if a commoner can become a noble, then what separates a noble from a commoner? Why should they wait until they get "reborn" to become a noble? If that's possible, then why not now? I am aware that WotD worships dragons. No worse than Sanguis Astroism worshiping the Stars. In medieval times, the existence of monsters, devils, demons, etc, was a given. Everyone knew and acknowledged the fact of these things. And it has nothing to do with reincarnation itself. But a religion that advocates that nobles be kind to commoners? That a noble could become a commoner, or a commoner becoming a noble? That's inconceivable. --Indirik 22:03, 16 January 2009 (CET)

About progression

From what you've told me so far the progression for the faithful is peasant to noble, noble to immortal living in the afterlife. I think the religion should hint at further progressions that are not revealed fully at our level of progression (not revealed to nobles and peasants). I kinda of like the idea of an endless progression, which new paths revealing themselves as a person ascends.

Immortality

The idea of one nobles ascending to god. Is that those that do have proven themselves true followers of the religion. Mostly this honor is to be given Martyrs and such. -Mathias
