Faiths

The world of Godherja has many different faiths and denominations of them inside of it. The religions in-game function in the same ways that they do in the base game albeit with more tenets in the base game. For more information on the groupings of faiths visit Religions, for more information on the tenets of the faiths visit Tenets.

Aversarinas Aagiokratia
Aversarinas Aagiokratia is the catch-all term for the state religion of the aversarian Aautokrata and its assorted denominations, offshoots, and heresies. Though their tenets may vary wildly, they all revolve around belief in the primordial "First Men," a divine race of magic-wielding humans led by a mage named the Purest. the Aversarians, who had the most magical ability, unsurprisingly considered themselves to be the greatest descendants of the First Men and the closest followers of the Purest's teachings. And if they are the closest to true humans, then foreigners and heathens are a bit less than human.

Agionism
Agionism is a religion based around the lives and martyrdoms of various aversarian reformists, saints, and rebels. While initially against aversarian religious practices, the end of their rebellions saw their cults "rehabilitated" and reincorporated into the aversarian fold; the Agionists and aversarians now share many tenets. They have since established themselves as Crusading Orders in sarradon, seeking to spread the knowledge of their Saints in what has become known as the saints war.

Allemani
The Allemani faith sees the world as being the trunk that supports a great Tree, which they call Stoðrusigga. Further up the trunk and one passes into the trees, which are the homes of the gods, and down the trunk are the roots where the dead lie. They believe that their duty is to act as stewards of the tree, maintining it the same way that birds and squirrels peacefully live in the trees they call home. Honoring the gods brings them bounties from the earth, and mistreatment will eventually lead to blight and decay until the world is naught but a gnarled stump.

Ancient
The world is full of faiths and religions, not all of which have been able to maintain worshippers through the present day. Some have spawned successors that incorporate tenets of their faith, but many were not as lucky. They only live on in the tomes of libraries, paintings in decaying temples, or in the bones of the dead.
