Aralia, The Blazing Shield
“Aralia’s faithful will know fear no more, for fear is poison to the will of the soul. Poisoned will, poisoned soul, ‘never’ forget that...”
The High Servitor
The Goddess of Courage, Aralia is the High Servitor of Jubelia and commands the plane of Istarion, the Solar Domain, a plane of an endless beautiful sunset, adorned with floating cloud castles and pegasuses roam among the sky. Istarion is a glorious bastion where the souls of honorable clerics and fearless warriors go to rest.
The Orange Pillar of the Ten’t Divine is known to have led the armies of the High heavens in to battle against the Chains of Yarenil in the Era of Chaos during the War of Unification. Aralia is depicted as a beautiful four-winged seraph, clad in white plate armor, with long gorgeous locks of gold hair, and a piercing gaze that strikes fear into the hearts of the guilty. Her massive flaming great sword, Volkanion, seeks to smite the wicked beings that encroach upon the borders of the material plane and carve a path of righteousness in its wake. Aralia’s titular shield, Certur’s Heart, is said to bathe her in a brilliant golden flame that could purify even the most wicked of souls. Priests of the Solar Domain often adorn themselves with the symbol of her almighty shield as proof of their faith.

Fear No More
Monasteries of Aralia hone their student’s bravery against their fears, so that they may be ready to fight, no matter how dangerous the foe, or overwhelming the odds. In a ritual known by many as "The Kiln", students are placed within a enchanted cellar. This cellar would produce visions of untold horrors tailored to the individual's worst fears, eventually becoming harder and more brutal as the sessions progress. This ritualistic mental conditioning has earned the name for the followers of the faith that has survived this experience as the "Hell Divers". Clerics, paladins, and priests of this order a highly sought after as powerful healers and bodyguards. A person of this faith shall never know fear of the power of darkness, only the fury of retribution.Divine Domains
