Idon

The Ralus Faith God of Knowledge, Secrets, Secrecy, Truth and Psychological Conquest, and of unknown race, known as the Divine Blackmailer.
One of the three gods of knowledge in the Ralus Faith alongside Cognidoc and Ioun; referred to as the "Politician".
His Usual Appearance: His true form being characteristically unknown, he presents himself with a body seemingly made out of smooth glass with space itself and its stars, nebulas and constellations confined within. On top of it, he wears immaculate suits and ties.
He is embodiment of secrecy and all it entails. He possesses a cautious nature, some would say paranoid, and would never reveal a truth he is not absolutely sure is a certainty, and to no one he believes will abuse it.
A tradition amongst the worshippers of Idon, a business relationship in and of itself, is when they do meet, they can do business in the form of trading secrets. When a secret is given, that secret is forgotten by the seller.

Notable Relations

Ioun┃Idon views Ioun as naive and gullible. He sees her divulging information to mortalkind as freely as feeding breadcrumbs to birds as the worst possible idiocy, whereas the right secret in the right ear could accomplish great things. He believes mortals are not fit to know many of the secrets that the Seamstress of Open Secrets holds. Secrets that he knows that she knows because he is Idon, and of course he knows. He is Idon.
Cognidoc┃Idon hates Cognidoc with a passion. He believes that to keep secrets is a natural and obligatory thing, to be wise and cautious in their sharing. To carry knowledge is equivalent to carrying the responsibility to control who learns it and who does not, and proper wisdom in this duty can save lives.
Haevus┃Idon cooperates with Haevus for the sake of collecting secrets, as Heavus is the diety of the unseen and can therefore find and acquire the knowledge Idon craves with far more ease than any other servant. They maintain a business relationship of secrets and favours that has persisted for thousands of years.
