The Church of Stellaism praise and worship the two moons and the twelve constellations. They are the people of the stars. Each of the constellations this way represents one of the primary twelve gods.
At the center of the Mythos are the Twelve gods, only visible during the night sky. They are the creators and shapers of the world, and humans are their children.
Creation
In the beginning there was Tyro and Tyra, the Father and the Mother. Through their divine powers the world was created.
The Pantheon
From the cosmos, the Gods were created, otherwise known as the Constellos. There are many gods among the religion and often times expanding. Acording to the text of High Stasori, Marlon II, "While the Gods show themselves to us as the stars in their forms of light, there are many other gods, both grand and lesser, that do not show us their forms." Stating that while many of the gods are known, there is a potentionally endless number of gods to be known, each that can take up their own form. However, there are twelve gods which rule over with justice and peace.
Among the Twelve Gods, They each have their own tenents and laws to follow as well as priest cultists of them who serve to specific duities. Stasori may only serve the god that their gender aligns with. So only Men can serve the Father and women can serve The Mother.
Tyro The Father
Tyro is the highest and most powerful of all the gods. He is the husband to Tyra, the mother and creator of most all gods. He is the icon to Lords, Kings, and most of all, Fathers. The Stasori That serve Tyro are often the least common, but the most important. Servents of Tyro are given command and authority of the local Stats and would have lesser Stasori of other gods under them. Among their duties to the Stas, they are also there to give aid to and wisdom to fathers and even lords and kings if they would so ask.
Tyra The Mother
Tyra is the second most powerful of the Gods, being the Queen of the Pantheon. She is the tender of all children and raises them to become men and women. The Stasori of Tyra are to serve as guides to new mothers and women raising children. When an orphan lands on the steps of a Stats, it is the duty of a Stasori of Tyra to tend to them and raise them. With Noblewomen, Stasori of Tyra are often employed to help raise children as well.
Thamor The Warrior
Thamor The Warrior is the patron of all soldiers, knights, and even sellswords. Those Stasori who serve him are in charged of witnessing knighting and trials by combat. Stasori of Thamor are often skilled at weaponry as well and used as holy knights.
Patiria The Festive
Patiria is the Goddess of Festival. While well know for massive parties and festivals she is in charge of the laws of hospitality and mannerisms. She is a lesser god among the main pantheon and has little to know Stasori who serve her.
Taergos The Torch Bearer
Perhaps the most notorious of the gods and most feared. It is said all life is fire, and it is Taergos who carries one's torch until it is nothing but smoke. He is a gentle god, but not one to trifle with. The Stasori of Taergos also known as the candle carriers or death stasori, are those who treat to the dead and dying. When a man dies, it is to these stasori to light their funeral pyre and bury the bones in a crypt.
Seri The Harvester
Where Taergos is death, Seri is life. She creates all life, including the plants, trees, animals, insects, etc. If Taergos is fire, she is water. Seri has few Stasori who serve her but recieves prayers often from pregnant mothers.
