Lochost

Lochost is the patron of slaves and rebels. Scholars also revere this Passion, as the truly educated mind seeks to break free from the beliefs of the past and make new discoveries.
With the spread of Theran slavery, it was thought the Mad Passion Dis wielded greater influence, but with Throal’s recent victory the balance of power between them appears to have shifted. Despite the Theran retreat, slavery is not eradicated from the land, and Lochost still sends his questors to free slaves and strike against those who would chain or enslave others.
Lochost and Dis frequently find themselves in conflict. The two last fought at a slave camp near the citadel of Tirthon, killing every slave and slaver present with their savage combat. As a result, Lochost prefers to distract Dis rather than engage him openly.

Questors

Lochost’s questors can be found anywhere in Barsaive that oppression or inequity rules. Some questors agitate for change in pursuit of equality and Namegiver dignity, proposing political reforms in established communities and within the Kingdom of Throal. Some act as devil’s advocates in an effort to ensure that those in power continue to govern responsibly. Still others foment rebellion for the sake of change, imitating their Passion by constantly challenging the status quo.
As long as Thera practices slavery, questors of Lochost will actively oppose Theran rule, sowing and nurturing rebellion in slave camps and mining operations throughout Barsaive and elsewhere in the world. Most Therans accept the edict that questors of Lochost must be exposed and eradicated in order to preserve their lifestyle, and the Mad Passion Dis hunts Lochost relentlessly, determined to extinguish the light of his inspiration.
