Religion

There are two Pantheons worshipped on Nor.

The Erothian Gods, or Old Gods as they are called are powerful being who have obtains godhood through various methods. Some are believed to have come from other worlds where many being like them exist. Some have ascended through powerful magics, and some have ascended through Divane worship. The power of these Gods come from the people on Nor and their Faith. There is a font of power that is distributed to these gods based on the number of followers they have. Because of this their number is somewhat limited. In order for a new god to b added to the pantheon, the old gods would have to lose some of their power. While not unheard of this is a very rare occurrence. More common is a God's worshippers tend to dwindle and that God can not maintain his divinity, and his power splits amongst the other. This has happened many times over Nor's history and sometimes these old Gods are forgotten, or sometimes an existing God will grant them some manner of power, and they become demigods, servant of the Old Gods. (Oxor is an example).

Demigods are also create by the Old Gods in order to watch over a specific group of followers. Tiamat and Bahumet are examples of created Demigods, each watching over followers who who pay homage to dragons.

Because the power of these Gods directly relates to their worship they tend to take an active hand in the world. They often appear to faithful using avatars, and messengers to help guide them. They put in motion quests and event in order to help them maintain their worship and to further their portfolio of influence.

Worship of the One god is becoming popular in areas like Skull Island and Syr. Lain and the Free Cities worship The one almost exclusively. Many think the One is a new religion, but in fact is is older than the Erothian Gods. It has just been forgotten for a long time. The One god is believed to be the one true God of the multiverse, the creator and ruler of all. This God is not specific to Nor, and is worshipped on Many works and planes in the multiverse. Because The One's power is external to Nor, it doesn't matter how many worshippers he has. His power is not dependent on the people of Nor and as such he tend to not involve himself in the world, except when it comes to Fiends. As Fiends also transcend Nor, they have been a foe of The One since long before Nor was created, and when they threaten the world, the One will take a more direct hand in Nor and his worshippers lives.

The One God - The new God, God of Heaven and earth. Foe of Demons. God above all Gods.
