Adar

The Earth Father
The Deep-One, the Unknowable. Adar represents the unchanging, the un-moving, and the un-yielding. It was the stolid nature of Adar that became the rocks and mountains of the Earth. The unyielding will of Adar became the granite faces of the mountains, and the unchanging faith of Adar became the solid ground beneath one’s feet.
Adar is known for his persistence as well as his plodding nature. Adar’s mind is will itself, his decisions become natural law. Because of the power Adar holds over the gods of the pantheon many theologians see him as the King of the Gods. The truth of this assertion is not entirely absolute especially given the nature of many of his Shardbrother’s and sisters. Regardless, worship of Adar is likely the most widespread religion across the Free Coast followed by his brother Idall.
Adar’s rule covers many domains that involve the earth, rule of law, and strength. Because of this most rulers, soldiers and fathers keep a small shrine to Adar within reach. Priests of Adar are known for being severe, stoic and stubborn, but always dedicated to the Law. Many cities on the Free Coast appoint Adarrian priests as chief Magistrates and Judges because of their dedication to legalism which often borders on the absurd. Much like the rule of Adar over the other gods, the rule of Adarrian kings is often unyielding and autocratic. Regardless, Adar’s Stone hammer: Ukk’ll, is seen everywhere as a symbol of order and justice.

In the infinite expanses of the unnamed realm there was only one being: Io. Io was infinite in every capacity, both for good and evil, knowledge and ignorance. For Io the entirety of existence was provided within it’s self, save one. Io became lonely. The expanses of the unnamed realm provided no satisfaction.  At first Io thought to build new lands to explore. So in a moment Io crafted the uncountable planes beyond the material. With infinite knowledge though Io knew the location of every stone, every mountain in all the planes. Io despaired for his singular existence seemed a waste. A world of despair seemed a punishment compared to the infinite void that awaited him in death. So Io wished for his unmaking at last, but in this a strange thing happened. As Io was the only thing that had ever been, the paradox of his wish created a rift. His entity became riven and fragmented. In a cacophony of creation Io was ripped apart. Io shattered into seven beings, each representing a facet of his powers. Adar was the first and most powerful god to emerge from the destruction. The union of Adar and his female counterpart: Jurra birthed the material realm: Adurra.
