Pantheon & Religions

 Daein's Pantheon and Various Religions

The gods and goddesses that make up Daein's pantheon are immortal, however they are also a fallible and bickering lot. Most importantly, they are competitive with one other and continually seek dominance over one or the other; often even deities under the same alignment make power plays against each other.

This disdain for each other carries down to their followers, inevitably causing conflict between the various religious groups. Though the recognized need for balance tempers much of the conflict and as a result, most cities with Temples dedicated to one deity usually have Temples for some of the others as well.

Pantheon

For the last few centuries three major deities have enjoyed lasting reign over the others. Ios over the 'good' aligned deities, Elari over the 'neutral', and Sevas over the 'evil'. Here is a complete list with links to each of their individual pages:
 * Ios - God of Life; King of Light
 * Kiros - God of Holy War
 * Alayn - Goddess of Love; Peace
 * Osae - Goddess of Purity
 * Elari - Goddess of Balance; Queen of Neutrality
 * Holdar - God of Knowledge
 * Sephoni - God of Protection
 * Eshta - Goddess of Nature
 * Sevas - God of Death; King of Darkness
 * Veron - God of Desecration
 * Molth - God of Pestilence; Disease
 * Jor Talvis - God of Hate

Religions

There are many religions of the people of Daein, but the three largest religions involve the Triumvirate, or the top three dieites, Ios, Elari, and Sevas.

Most of Ios worship surrounds The Church of Solance.
