The Pantheon

The Five

The creation account names five sparks that found purpose and became gods. Each established a realm and a faith. Their doctrines and disagreements appear throughout Rogue in temples, institutions and the lives of their followers.

Aurin · A radiant sun

Loralei

Goddess of Pleasure, Desire and Prosperity

Generous, with a strong belief in the power of desire.

Desire and joy are sources of strength.A principle of Loralei's faith

Loralei rose with the first dawn and raised Aurin from the valley below it. She teaches that pleasure and desire can give a life direction, and that beauty deserves a place in ordinary work as well as worship. Her faith encourages openness, generosity and prosperity. Those ideals create disagreements over secrecy and the use of wealth; Aurin's institutions do not always interpret them alike. Loralei's emphasis on comfort and restoration also brings her into conflict with Sivaine's use of hardship as instruction.

Morrigan · A black feather on a blade

Sivaine

Goddess of Wisdom, Vengeance and Suffering

Exacting and persistent in judgement.

Examine suffering; do not conceal it behind reassurance.A principle of Sivaine's faith

Sivaine awoke with the first understanding of fragility and established Morrigan among the obsidian cliffs. Her teaching asks followers to examine suffering and wrongdoing without hiding behind reassuring explanations. Some undertake trials as a form of purification. She opposes the comfort Loralei offers when she believes it conceals a truth that must be faced. Her followers must also contend with the distinction between enduring pain and inflicting it in the name of wisdom.

Olympus · A downward spear in an iron guard

Kranos

God of War, Battle and Order

Stern, with an insistence on duty and command.

Keep the oath and perform the duty it requires.A principle of Kranos's faith

Kranos arose amid mountain fire and gathered frightened, scattered mortals into organised armies. He established Olympus as a citadel of his faith. Discipline, rank and service give his followers a common structure, and an oath carries obligations beyond the moment it is sworn. His hostility towards Thalos concerns the place of order itself: Kranos builds institutions to hold against disruption, while Thalos rejects their claim to govern the wild.

Iasos · A cresting wave cleft by lightning

Thalos

God of Nature, the Sea and Storms

Fiercely independent and quick to oppose restraint.

Freedom is sacred; the wild answers to no throne.A principle of Thalos's faith

Thalos rose from the ocean after a falling star struck it. Lightning accompanied his emergence, and the islands of Iasos became his realm. He accepted no throne and founded no capital; his sanctuaries occupy sea caves and storm-worn cliffs. His faith values freedom, instinct and skill in the wild. Sailors ask him for passage through the waters that fall within his domain. His rejection of imposed order puts him in direct conflict with Kranos.

The Underworld · A spiral key of shadow

Morbis

God of Death, Memories and the Underworld

Impartial and patient in the keeping of the dead.

Keep the names of the dead and the obligations owed to them.A principle of Morbis's faith

Morbis formed among the broken places of creation, where memories had gone unclaimed. He revealed the way into the Underworld when the first lost soul needed passage. The dead bring names, memories and unfinished obligations into his keeping. He takes little part in the arguments of the living gods, whose own histories are preserved within his realm. His faith holds that an oath survives its maker and that deliberate forgetting can betray the people it erases.
