Cults and religions of Felarya :
Contents
[hide]Cult of Minalca
Minalca is the main goddess of luck in Felarya. Her protection is obviously very sought and her cult is flourishing. Her priests are usually former adventurers who survived the dangers of Felarya and decided to drop their dangerous profession afterwards, hence the common Felaryan saying : "If I ever get out of this one, I swear I become a Minalca priest !"
To spread their faith, Minalca priests will gladly relate many stories and tales from their adventures and how they were ( presumably ) saved by the goddess. They easily captivate their audience this way, giving the cult an easy going reputation and a great popularity.
Disciples of Kallisti the Dark Goddess
Under constrution
A recent but expanding cult in Felarya. The followers of Kallisti are well organized and very fervent. Kallisti, actually came several time on Felarya in person and many saw the beautiful goddess, which sure helped it to spread ^^
The followers of Kallisti are also under the direct and watchful protection of Saya, a giant naga, and thus *somehow* protected from several other giant predators such as Vivian or the dreaded Crisis as well.
The disciples of Kallisti are at odd with the cult of Othem, the sun god. This is a bit one sided though : Othem has never been seen on Felarya ( besides his high priests who claime to actually have seen him many times under many forms ) and many Othemites zealots ended in Saya's stomach.
Overall the cult is rather peaceful. The followers seek dark souls to feed to their goddess and practice many rituals, some of them highly sexual, a thing to be expected when you worship a succubus ! The disciple receive in return a solid protection and for the most devout, powers granted by Kallisti.
Doctrine of the sun god
Under constrution
The cult worships Othem, the radiant god, king of all suns. The cult is extremely powerful on many worlds, not much on Felarya. The Othemites seek to establish the doctrine of Othem in Felarya cities, which is one of absolute order and obedience, the only way to defeat the chaos that represent the rest of Felarya and its predators.
Order and law inquisition, holy war and fanatism style
Have declared holy war on disciples on Kallisti for befriending a giant naga, which they considers creatures of the night and of great unholyness ( mostly because they tried to convert some nagas too and got eaten for their troubles ^^ )
Followers of Khord
Under constrution
God of the night, thieves, luck, gamblers and adventurers
Seekers of Sineria
Under constrution
Seeker of the tomb of Sineria the dridder queen. human agents of dridders. Protection of dridders.
