Telian

Telian is the former God of Art, succeeded by Schoyna and Berghabund after his death in 485 AtS. Not only did he had millions of followers among the imperial population, but also a large portion of the Imperial Pantheon.
== Biography ==
Telian was the God of Art even before the Stormfall cut Ferra away from the rest of the Old Empire. He was partially responsible for ascension of Goddess Arianne in 110 AtS, and took in multiple masters of arts as his students, with few ascending to be saints at some point in their life. Because of how ancient he was, and how he had such large presence Telian had in the imperial culture, it was to everyone shock when it was declared by his followers that the God of Art has died. It was extremely rare that a Greater Gods perish, and it brought some uncertainty into hearts of the imperials about not only their safety, but the safety of their gods.
Upon his death, the vastness of his skillset and mastery was powerful in itself that it survived the death of the god, gained consciousness, and became the daemon known as Berghabund. The greatest of the masters that were apprentices of Telian, Schoyna, became the new God of Art, but it was more than clear how inferior she was to her predecessor.
== Arts of Telian ==
Telian was a master of all, be it paintng, sculpting, architecture, and even combat. The term martial arts was coined by monks of Telian that practised self-improvement and mastery over their skills, and it stucked to this day. Despite the god being long gone, the schools of Telian still remain, although far from their peak.
