Description

Not often seen, Kandis is pictured as a tall man with black hair that sparks with embers of flame. Dressed in robes of sky blue, his eyes blaze with the light of suns. He cares deeply for his people, but restrains himself from taking action against the corrupt Sunpriests. Faithful people called out to Kandis in prayer, asking why he allowed such torment to continue. Sometimes in death they learned his answer: "I cannot interfere with the free will of my people, not until the fate of the very world is at stake."

Holy Symbol

Seven rayed sun in glory

Ability

Firecats - Firecats were a sign of Kandis’ favor. They appear as large cats (3 foot high at the shoulder) with pale golden white fur, except for a mask of flame across the face, the ears, and the tip of the tail. Tongue of Flame - When Kandis chooses to speak through his priests there is a visible flame that hovers over their head.

Relationships

Prime mover in the War of the Undead, he worked closely with Kalen’al and Tempur in designing the wreaking that bound Ollammass.

Worshippers



Clergy

Kandis’ highest representative in Caisia is the Son of the Sun, who leads the Sunpriests and establishes the law. Unfortunately, as the Sunpriests became more powerful, they also became corrupt, until they began electing each new Son of the Sun without the will of Kandis.
  The corrupt clergy terrorized the people for centuries, burning children with magical abilities, torturing and executing those accused of heresy or witchcraft, summoning demons against the populace, burning battlefield survivors, and so on. But there is a movement to restore the true glory of Kandis’ temple.
  Below the Son of the Sun there were three ranks of Sunpriests:
  • White robes - lowest rank, generally healers and attendants.
  • Red robes - most numourous, red robed priest tend to the needs of the most local temples
  • Black robes - highest ranking, demon summoners who make up most of the leadership
Dogma Free will is the key
