Deities of Thaaed
Re: Deities of Thaaed
Eilynne (Eye-Lynn) G
The She-Sun, the Golden Ray
Light, Birth, Dawn, Renewal
Greater Deity
Eight pointed Yellow sunburst star
INFO: Eilynne is the Lightbringer. “She Who Walks With The Dawn.” Eilynne is the goddess of light, protection within light, and renewal. She is seen in sunlight, reflection of the sun, and in the faces of newborn infants.
She shows herself often to her faithful in the form of a ray of light, or a thick obscuring beam from the sun. She is worshipped by many different people. From goodly clerics seeking purity to beautiful women, asking for their youth to keep. Children pray to her, asking for her to bring them the dawn, and push the terror invoking shadows of night. Her blessing is sought by those wrongly accused in prison hoping the light will shine and show the truth.
Eilynne is a loving goddess. She acts often with her faithful, but her most enjoyable acts, is showing her presence to those on the fence about her existence. She is a ray of light in a dark dungeon, or a surrounding column of light preventing undead from touching a mortal in peril. These bring Eilynne the most joy, knowing the mortals will seek to the stars above, looking for her.
She is known throughout most of Thaaed, and is known by different names in different countries. Her faithful and followers are always welcome in towns and cities and even are asked to bless certain holidays for good weather and sunshine.
The followers of Eilynne are called Lightbringers. The priests are often found helping the poor or fighting off undead attacks in towns with no protection. These are the tenants of the Lightbringers.
There is a small group of Lightbringers, called “Dawn Shields. The order of the Dawn Shields are a militant based organization that travel the lands of Thaaed, seeking corruption and hidden evil within cities, using their powers to “bring light to the dark hearts of men.” Their Inquisitorial actions often bring frowns from citizens, and even outright rage from true Lightbringers. The symbol of the Dawnshields is the gold yellow star of Eilynne, but rimmed with blood red. They often have been seen crucifying corrupted barons, and hanging vile officials, before moving on to the next city.

Re: Deities of Thaaed
Morgrum (Mor-grum)
Blood God, Orc Lord NE
Orcs, Power, Strength, Battle
Greater Deity
Tower of red, over yellow crescent moon
INFO: No name brings more calm or fear to the hearts of orcs than Morgrum. Morgrum is the God of Orcs Power, Strength and Battle. As orcs know not much else than killing, battle and strength, Morgrum is given homage daily. When a tornado touches down and destroys a forest, it was Morgrum's will. When a flood drowns babies and allows the strong to survive, it is Morgrun's test. When plague sets in from the filth and dozens of orcs die, or crops whither, it is Morgrum's punishment. All things not magical, is the will,whim and under the control of Morgrum. Most orcs only pay homage to Morgrum twice. Once during or before battles, and another when something bad happens. It is usually the Warshamans of Morgrum that point to the green masses that other things happen due to Morgrum's will.
Morgrum appears to his faithful as a huge ten foot tall orc in black and red platemail wielding Feykiller, his two handed battleaxe +3/ +5 vs. elves. Morgrum is paid homage before and during every battle and as such is constantly given homage.
His shamans known as "warshamans" or "Kla-durek" dress in red or black and adorn themselves with gold as symbols of glory Morgrum’s power brings in the form of treasure or war profits.
