The Faith of the Seven
Summary
The Faith of the Seven's history in Hafiz is as old as Hafiz itself and is writ into the very fabric of Hafizi society. Prior to The Eclipse, the Thrope peoples of Hoch El Aga were not united in worship under one religion or deity. Their faith was a tribalistic, animist and mostly of heterogeneous and localized expression With the Sun Dynasty's liberation of Hafiz, a unifying religion and worldview was seeded. And from that time forward, avatars of the Seven Faced God have been worshipped in differernt ways by the diverse Noids that make up Hafiz City.The Seven Avatars of the Seven Faced God - Divine Domain

Mythology & Lore
(Human)Noids of Epo Rue conceived of the one source through archetypes or roles that they were familiar with. In their worship of these avatars of themselves as (Human)Noids, they manifested the seven faces of their God into existence. Thus, the Seven Faced God expresses its divinity through seven archetypes of a (Human)Noid form, that are actual and who's power and influence on the world are dependent upon the number of followers.
Divine Origins
The origins of The Faith are to the East of Epo Rue in a land much too foreign and exotic for any Hafizi to be cognizant of.
Cosmological Views
For most Hafizis, the world is being stewarded and managed by their favourite and most resonant face of Seven Faced God... who they likely regard as THE final divine authority. Subtler interfacing with the faith would have it that the world and everything in it is as much an expression of the Seven Faced God's source as it itself .. that the world in its material and immaterial forms IS the 'body' of that one source, the Seven Faced God.
