Erlyid God (Valour and loyalty)
-
Surprisingly, for a dynamic and expansionist empire, Diruc is the closest there is to a war god in the Erlyid pantheon. Diruc the Steadfast brings rewards and honour to those who hold fast, keep the line, watch their comrades’ backs, honour their word. His church sponsors several fighting orders, including the Order of Kellan.
Diruc's church has split, with the mainstream Church of Diruc abhorring the orc alliance and refusing to have anything to do with them, and the Church of Diruc the Warrior adopting a more accomodating approach to the new allies, even to the point of allowing half-orc and occasional full orc priests. Relations between the two are not good, and occasional flare-ups and even fighting will happen in towns where there are churches of both denominations.
