Revision as of 03:42, 29 August 2006

Here are listed The Valentic Order's views on other popular teachings in Beluaterra (last updated 8/28/06).


The Path of the Great Dragon

Variant

  • After speaking with their priests and studying their sacred scrolls, I have come to the conclusion that "The Great Dragon" they serve is actually a physical form taken by Rin, Ancient of Fire, to gain followers for himself. They are opposed to all forms of evil, and strive to do all they can to protect others from it as well. The followers of The Path should be treated as brothers & sisters. - Darrin


Qyrvaggism

Evil

  • Based on my studies of their manuscripts and my discussions with their priests, I believe "Qyrvagg" is an ancient name for Xed, spirit of Hate. I have brought the word of Komar to them, but they did not accept him. Soon, it will be time to bring the sword. - Darrin


Order of the Druids

Variant

  • I have yet to encounter any of their priests, but from my studies of their literature, I believe these Druids to be followers of Quil, Ancient of Trees. They are opposed to all forms of evil, acknowledge the Highfather (though not by name) and are devoted to the study of the Highfather's creation. The Druids should be treated as brothers & sisters. - Darrin


Hemaism

Evil

  • The official religion of the Theocracy of Sint. Not much is known of their teachings, but they are insistant on persecuting our followers, and harass/attack our priests whenever we enter their lands. We have agreed to leave them alone for the time being, for our own safety. - Darrin


The Church of Estahsism

Misguided

  • Most of the principles of this church seem to be in line with our own. They strongly support the advancement of humanity, and show a vauge disdain for evil. However, they seem to be more focused on personal advancement of their own empire, rather than the betterment of society as a whole. - Darrin


Sanguinaire

Evil


Omniovoism

Misguided

  • Their religion is based on the worship of "The Egg" as they call it. Their published texts make no references of the Ancients. They seem to be committed to slaying the undead that still walk the lands of Beluaterra, which means they are opposed to some kinds of evil and are somewhat interested in helping their fellow souls. - Darrin


Octarianism

Misguided

  • They seem to have vaugely similar beliefs about the hierarchy of Ancients, but reject all other religions as possessing any truth. Not much else is known at the present. - Darrin


Hedonism

Misguided

  • While not inherently evil, this religion is solely focused on gratifying carnal pleasures, whatever they may be, and shows no regard for the rest of mankind. - Darrin


Ragnarok

Ignore


Divine Order of Mentism

Variant


Yggdrasili

Ignore


Eretzism

Misguided

  • It seems their priests are still in the process of decoding their sacred texts. They have a similar view of the hierarchy of Ancients, but not much else is known. Perhaps we will need to review this faith again at a later date. - Darrin
