Pintyara

== History ==
The religion of Pintyara is centered around five beings. These five beings were formed at the beginning when the world of Rathnir was first formed from the void. The beings exists to keep Rathnir in balance, and everywhere that a sentient creature touches, you will find the five beings. The five beings are not "Gods," meaning that they didn't create the world and only exist to keep it in balance. This also doesn't mean that another God made them. They naturally were made by the universe to create balance.
=== The Founders Journey ===
Sinkturtle, after joining the world of Rathnir gained wisdom. At first he could not handle it but after a bit he unlocked the power of the TruthTurtle. One of the five beings and the first to reveal itself to the world. The wisdom of the TruthTurtle told him to go by the name of Sinkturtle and, to only reveal his real name if instructed to. He did not know what this meant but followed the "wisdom's," command.
After having lived in Tortuga for a while the TruthTurtle told it's follower to put the "wisdom," into five books and to "Tell someone you trust to split you from me. Then tell them to split my power into the five books." That night he was given "The Scythe of Truth," and his friend Warwick struck him with the Scythe." (This ritual would later be know as "The Splitting," and it is done to represent when one of the five beings is in need of rest and must leave its follower/host.)
Through the time the "wisdom was separated from it's host," Sinkturtle would protect these books with his life until the books spoke to his mind and told him that he was needed elsewhere. He was given a tool that was created by the "wisdom," during "The First Splitting." This weapon would guide Sinkturtle to release Xoda (one of Sinkturtle's old friends) from the chains of the false goddess Segra. The next day after that event the books said "You have no need for this scythe anymore, you can guide yourself from here, then when you are done I will speak to you." From that time he followed Xoda and let Xoda guide him on a path to create a country.
=== Creating the Religion ===
The "wisdom" told Sinkturtle after he found himself in Kutiayara to start the religion. The "wisdom" told him about the four beings and there names with the fifth one being the "wisdom" who's name was Celaria. Then told him about their purpose, and that the other four will soon center themselves around the country of Kutiayara.
The first temple would be built in the town of New Tichmorok, where the religion would start. Celaria told Sinkturtle many things about her plans and about the religion itself. Celaria told Sinkturtle to name the religion Pintyara
=== The Fallen Era (1062-1097 ACA) ===
The Fallen Era officially started when Sinkturtle had died (1062 ACA) and the only true follower left was Arnor Elerith who was suffering from serious ailments (irl stuff) that kept him from reviving the religion. The religion had realistically been in the dark age for a much longer time due to the fact that Kutaiyara had another religion, Nas'iib, that Pintyara had eventually come to terms with, making it a bother religion, but both of the religions became inactive. During the Fallen Era, the only somewhat standing sect of Pintyara was Yarner's, but most of the Yazerite Lords after Elerith were none Pintyaran practicing and were just war lords who held respect for Pintyara, that was thought to be a dead Religion. Eventually when Yarners came into the hands of Baby Ace, who had been one of the oldest members of the merc group, they found the Ghost of Sinkturtle who was still trapped in the mortal realm by Yarner until Pintyara was at its true glory. After having found Sink, Ace had talked to them on their plan to revive Pintyara, officially ending the Fallen Era(1097 ACA).
== The Five Beings ==
The five beings all have a purpose in the world of Rathnir. Unlike in other religions, none of the five beings are enemies and all understand there place in this world. The five beings also all relate themselves to a animal to represent there place in this world.
==== Celaria-Keeper of Knowledge ====
Her animal she relates to is a turtle, and her place in this world is to have knowledge and wisdom on all things or the future and the past. She is generally referred to as the TruthTurtle. Was the first of the Beings to reveal themselves to the world, being unsatisfied with how the world was being treated. 
==== Patery-Cultural Influencer ====
His purpose is to influence new ideas into the minds of new countries and religions. She relates herself to a chameleon, this is because of the many colors that they can change into and, people refer to her as the Chameleon of culture.
==== Inarter-Grand Peace Keeper ====
His purpose is to keep countries from war and influence them to more diplomatic solutions to their problems. He ties himself to Dolphins. People most the time call him the Grand Dolphin of Diplomacy.
==== Yarner-The Conqueror ====
Her mission is to start war to rid the world of plagued countries that don't deserve to live on this world. Yarner doesn't have a animal to represent her, but instead has Yazerite Lords that do her biding. Has a mercenary group called Yarner's Chosen to do her Bidding.
==== Arianna-The Merchant ====
She is generally named as the Golden Elephant. She brings gold and money where she goes, and she can make a nation rise from being poor.
== Rituals ==
There are many rituals that are done in this religion. To do a ritual you must find the right circumstances depending on what being you are doing a ritual for but if you don't have all the right circumstances the ritual will still be respected.
=== The Splitting ===
To preform the splitting you must find someone who is worthy to perform The Splitting on you. Someone who is worthy must believe in Pintyara and also must have general knowledge of magic. To set up the splitting you must take the 5 items, these five items will vary depending on the being you are splitting with. Then you must have the tool that the being has gifted you with. Finally the person preforming the ritual will strike you down with this tool, but they must do it while in the presence of a magical object (conduit or beacon), this will split the being into the five objects. The protector of these items must not loose them and if they do the being will release themselves from the objects and curse you forever. If the items are stolen then they will haunt the thief.
=== The Unification ===
This is the exact opposite from The Splitting. You must take have the five items and a soul fire then you must through the five items into the soul fire. After that you must jump into the soul fire, and burn to death while being killed by the chosen weapon of the Being your being unified with. When you are brought back you will have rejoined with a being.
=== General Sacrifice ===
A general sacrifice is when you sacrifice items of value into a soul flame to try and please the beings and gain there protection. This is a simple ritual that is done by throwing items into a soul flame. This ritual should be done in temples and only to be done in public on special days. (Like after winning a war or gaining a lot of money.) You do this ritual to give thanks to the beings for what they have given you.
=== Specific Sacrifice ===
You do this Sacrifice when you are in need of something. You will have a soul flame lit and this ritual should be done very rarely and in public. So lets say you are not going through good times and there is a lot of plague or something like that and you want to sacrifice to Arianna in the hopes that she can solve your problems. You would sacrifice gold and other materials to Arianna and if she respects your offer she will help you. You will generally do this before a major battle and sacrifice netherite and obsidian to Yarner in the hopes that she will bless you in battle.
=== A Beings Preference ===
All the beings have a preference on what items you sacrifice to them. Celaria like enchanted books and books in general, and will bless you with wisdom. Patery likes baked goods and items that represent culture, and you do this ritual before cultural events. Inarter likes diamonds and paper, and will bless you with peace. Yarner likes netherite and obsidian, and will bless you with power. Arianna like gold and traded goods, and you do this while going through hard times.
=== Conversion ===
In order to convert you must go through a ritual. It involves burning 1 diamond and the person converting must burn in the fire. After they do when they respawn they will be a Pintyaran.
== Blessed Objects ==
Every Being will have at leave 5 blessed items and these will be what you use in The Splitting. All the beings will also have a blessed tool that is used in rituals.
==== Celaria ====
Her blessed Items are five books that are signed by there follower. These books can have whatever they what written in them. The blessed tool of Celaria is The Scythe Of Truth.
