Deities

In alphabetical order

Agatha

Lawful   Also known as the eternal winter of Tolkia. Agatha is a powerful element in the form of winter, that have settled in northen Lardon for a millennia, making the forest and mountains stay in eternal winter. During the great war, many of Tolkain cities and fortress stood strong against the orcs thanks to its icy terrain, and until today outside of these cities their frozen corpses remain. That is when many citizens came to worship Agatha, thanking her for defending their cities, and believing that as long there is winter in Tolkia, they shall be safe.  

Apirus

Neutral - Nature domain   Apirus was an ancient ent (a living tree) located in the forests of Anoria. Unlike other gods, he loved speaking to his followers directly, face to face. His druids were brave forest-warriors that advocated patient and inner peace. Apirus created the first known civilization of elves in Anoria – aside to his avatar, a king who governed the kingdom. Anoria was the most prosperous country in the world for more than a Millenia, until the great war took place. During that wars, the orcish tribes have destroyed Anoria and burned Apirus to death. His charcoal skeleton can still be found in the dead forest.  

The book of knowledge

True order - Knowledge domain   By the belief of the people of the book, to follow the book of knowledge is to follow your inner curiosity. Originally found in the fallen kingdom of Nordar, the book of knowledge is an empty book, that soaks the ink written in it and in return will rewrite the knowledge one seek – as long as it already “knows” it. Many of the followers find their questions answers in their books and seek new information to write in the holy book.   The followers of the book are mainly in the city of Orlando. It is a religion of oligarchy; its people are chosen from a small party of scholars. It is one of the reasons Orlando stands as the capital of magic in Terea.    

Darjo

Neutral - Life domain, trickery domain   While most gods demand loyalty for certain values, and in return give magic and power – Darjo simply wants money. Want to activate cure wounds? The priest will charge a gold coin, that will disappear into from his hands in a golden flash while your wounds heal. In cancun, there are not many honest men, but there is a lot of money – that’s exactly why Darjo is one of he most popular gods in the city.  

Ekanos

Evil/Chaos – Grave domain   Ekanos is a wild god of plague and beasts. His followers are usually cursed creatures: humans that asked to become werewolf’s or vampires, mad druids that refuse to change back to their original form and other deviants of humanoids.   During the “The treasure map of Aziz” adventure, the brats have slain an occultist named Nemia who tried to spread a plague of werewolves in the merchant alliance. Thanks to Duglaff, Tsabi and Kevin she was stopped: but she took some victims before, and the disease eventually stroke Emily as well.  

Imadan

Good/Order - Life domain, war domain   A dwarven god, one of the most dominant by the surface dwarfs. His belief is about defending the innocent, legend said that he himself took Gertia into two and thereby preventing war that accrued on the island in ancient times.   The Organization of the good rock is a large dwarven military group, created for the purpose of enforcing his values: they actively intervene in affairs in Gertia to prevent war, they collect dangerous artefacts on lock them away, and spread the word of this gentle but powerful god. They are not the exclusive followers of Imadan but defiantly to dominant group. To pray to Imadan, all one has to do is simply talk to a rock. Imadan will never respond personally but will send an anel occasionally.    

Thela

Chaos - Tempest domain   Thela is a storm of lightning, ever angry and ever floating between the seas of Gertia and the Plunder’s isles. Many sailor and pirates offer Thela offerings of treasure and gold, living creatures and sometimes even humans in return of clear skies. Thela have never cared if the offerings were obtained legitimately or not, a fact that encouraged pirates to plunder ever more. Some arcana and religion philosophers will say that Thela is not actually a god, but actually an extremely powerful elemental being – but that have not stopped Thella from gathering a cult for herself called the keepers of the storm.

For example, one of Order alignment can still pray for Thela.   *If a certain god offer more then one domain, a priest can choose which one he wants to pick. He cannot choose one that is not mentioned and will not be able to change it later.
