Baker's Dozen

The baker's dozen is a religion comprised of 12 sects, each devoted to a god in their pantheon. As a whole, the religion believes in worship through veneration and covenant, and there is a generally accepted canon within the religion that each sect shares belief in. Since each sect follows a different deity, there is some variation in the laws between the sects. This is well known by its members, and it is discussed frequently in a meeting comprised of the different leaders of each sect. Each leader is called the Prophet. They are called such because each one has been selected by their deity to hear their voice. The prophet shares revelations from the gods, laws from the gods, and they act as the conduit for that deity as well. They also are the only members who attend the prophet's meeting. 
The Baker's Dozen began in it's homeland, formerly Windrop, now Ardagia, after the first Prophet, Banana, received an order from the goddess Hostina. Banana then established the small country, formerly a province in the The Magisterium. It has since become independent again. Ardagia is still considered the heartland of the religion. 
=== Acolytes of Hostina ===
The acolytes of Hostina is the first established sect of the Baker's Dozen. Their Goddess is, of course, Hostina, and their prophet is Cerys Byrne. The Acolytes of Hostina prescribe to two main laws that are detailed in their holy text. They must give food freely and without cost, and they must provide shelter to those in need of it. This is because it's believed that Hostina gives her gift of food and life freely, so the Acolytes must do the same. It's also believed that, in a sense, Hostina is Rathnir itself. She has given a home to all on her land, so the Acolytes do the same.
The previous prophet of the Acolytes of Hostina was Banana. After being the prophet and sole leader of Hostina for some time, she left to find and explore new cultures and ways of life. She returned to Ardagia where she was given a seat on the council of 12 prophets as the Prophet of Felle.
=== Acolytes of Aluin ===
The acolytes of Aluin are based in Biecol, the port city of Ardagia. Their goddess is Aluin and their prophet is Valiant. The Acolytes of Aluin prescribe to the laws of the sea first and foremost, but also perform a sacrifice. Each time a ship sets sail, the acolytes sink a ship. Additionally, acolytes of Aluin do not sell fish, as they are a gift from the goddess Aluin.
=== Knights of Tekvica ===
The Knights of Tekvica are the most numerous, and are based in the Forge, the bastion of Ardagia. Their prophet is Jade. The Knights of Tekvica follow the war goddess and serve as the military of Ardagia. They show honour to Tekvica by lighting an eternal flame that is never to be put out, and by honouring the art of battle through the study of it. Many have also created weapons that are displayed on altars to show their devotion.
