Valodor Character in Graymarch | World Anvil

Valodor

Known as the Crusader God, Valodor is the patron Deity of the humans both on Imin and Astora. It is said that Valodor was once a mortal man under one of the Old Gods, but after the Old Gods left humanity he rose up among the chaos to bring order back to the people. Valodor began to teach of the strength that can not only be found within, but the strength that can be found within the kinship of your fellow man. It was with this strength that Valodor raised an army of five hundred loyal men and women to bring order back to the land of humanity, thus beginning his crusade to bring order and peace to humanity. Valodor's crusade lasted many years, and with every territory brought under his banner his army grew in size. Eventually almost all of Astora was under his protection and guidance.   Valodor's success and qualities as a leader lead to those under him seeing him as blessed by the divine, as the last piece of divinity from the Old Gods. Valodor became a living God to his people, the manifestation of the human spirit and drive to seek out a better tomorrow even when all seems lost and hopeless. It was this worship that cause Valodor to be reborn as a God after his death at the hands of the fallen knight Kasamir.   Valodor now remains as watchful guardian over his followers, making sure his champions are ever vigilant and ready for whatever threat my come against humanity.
