|
|
|
- Need some male gods (or more non-gendered ones)
|
|
- one based on the orc-eye guy from the first dungeon crawl campaign we did
|
|
- a neutral one based on buddhism - church of the laughing child - possibly based on the weird cult my 5E group ran into
|
|
- a generic Tao/ force one (the church of the way) - fatalistic
|
|
- raid your old 5E game
|
|
- reincarnated kid
|
|
- whoever Donnie worshipped
|
|
- the angel cult that was taking over - why not include them as a background thing?
|
|
|
|
- Vy'ken - later (or as example?)
|
|
- Can I tie this in with something they've seen or heard about - the viking healers / soul collectors?
|
|
|
|
- The Priests of Ahm'Shiir
|
|
+ Devoted to a charismatic leader who died approx 100ya, but has been reborn multiple times on diff planes (also prophesyizing his own return).
|
|
+ A pacifist order, sworn only to heal and help.
|
|
+ believe that when the Shiir is reborn 20 times, he will lift all of his devoted followers up, and they will build a heavenly plane of their own.
|
|
|
|
+ The Order of the Sacred Vow
|
|
- WAIT - Maybe not!
|
|
- This feels a bit close to a couple diff bits-and-pieces in the multiverse, this might just confuse things further.
|
|
+ Not-quite initiates are called "Seekers of the Sacred Vow"
|
|
+ Those who have committed to the vow, but who are otherwise unaffiliated with the church (the congregation, if you will) are the "speakers of the sacred vow".
|
|
+ Those who run the church are the "keepers of the sacred vow".
|
|
+ The clerics / paladins for the church are the "defenders of the sacred vow".
|
|
+ The highest level of the church may even have a "elders of the sacred vow" or somesuch.
|
|
+ the church is actually organized around an angel named Azra (known as the "Seraph of Authority")
|
|
+ **BUT** what is the sacred vow?
|
|
**About the Sacred Vow**
|
|
- It's actually a vow to serve the archangel Azra, "Seraph of Authority", "Avatar of Law"
|
|
- The downside is that Azra has been tainted / broken by the effects of the undead armies and/or Ashiok and/or Bolas and/or T
|
|
- Her armies can (and will) remain on the march / prevalent throughout.
|
|
- the Elders of the Vow (the first generation priests) reached out to their gods who sent them an angel named Ava, the Seraph of Authority, to help spread the word of the vow. The angel sent to them became central to both the running of the religion, becoming known as "the Living Vow"
|
|
- What no one knows is that the issues with the undead have given her visions whcih have driven her mad, and tehchurch bcomes even mpre zealous.
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ The Blessed Fellowship
