Gods of Eideon

Major Gods


Emer

The Goddess of life, fertility, nature and healing.

After the human abduction from Earth, she was the first goddess to be worshiped by the still enslaved humans who wished to lessen the pain inflicted on their tired bodies. In the current day, she is worshiped by a lot of people. Mainly farmers who wish for better crops, but also pregnant women, young couples and sick people.

The clergy of Emer is exclusively female. Temples of Emer are generally structured with the novices at the bottom, the nuns to do all the menial tasks, the prioress acting as the head of a temple and the abbess being at the top. Typically, the future abbess is chosen by the current abbess who will receive a vision from Emer. The current abbess will then travel to meet the woman from her visions and take her under her tutelage. Typically, only the Abbess of a temple has the ability to weave aether.

Temples of Emer, rather than purely a place of worship, are more like places of services done in the name of Emer. A temple of Emer will typically include a hospital, an orphanage and a garden. The temples earn money by charging a small amount for every of their services. Emer’s symbol is a blooming tree.

Ildir

God of truth, loyalty, order and justice.

Ildir is worshipped by lawmen, bounty hunters, knights but also scholars (while he’s not the god of learning, discerning the truth from lies in old texts sometimes requires divine inspiration). Soldiers are also often required to worship Ildir to ensure loyalty.

In addition to the militant Order of the Hammer who hunt criminals, countless bounty hunters, more spurred by gold than divine blessing, seek those criminals as well for the reward. The Order of Iron is the more administrative part of the cult, with a large part of human judges openly worshipping Ildir.

It is very important to note that a “law of Ildir” doesn’t exist. Judges, lawmen, government officials, anyone worshipping Ildir will still follow the laws set by the country they’re in. However, Ildir will inspire them to see the right from wrong and to take the right decision. Should a new law break the “order” that the cult members seek, it is up to the members of the order to inspire change, sometimes spurred by divine vision.

Ildir not only inspires lawmen, but any kind of contract made. Breaking a contract made under the name of Ildir will very quickly bring the attention of the Order of the Hammer. The symbol of Ildir is the raised hand.
