Herix

Herix (known as Herijio in the Lamadien region) is the general of the Divine Circle faith, the god of armies and strategy.
War, Strategy. Intermediate Power ♂
LN
The Trynsern and Lamadien god of war.
Domains: Glory (Heroism, Honor); Nobility (Leadership); Protection (Defense); Strength (Resolve); War (Tactics).Herix is not concerned so much with creating conflict and aggression, but he is the lord of battle, and he grants victories to the best prepared. Even in times of peace he counsels readiness. Unlike many warrior gods, Herix is largely unemotional, not being prone to rages or gleeful rampages. However the god can be angered, and to provoke his cold black fury is a sure course to spectacular failure on the battlefield. He blesses those who show distinct valor upon the field of battle. He sends his valkyries to collect the souls of great warriors who fall in battle who then could become eternal champions.
Herix appears as a grizzled general in his early fifties, festooned with military adornments, medals and the like, and wearing a military uniform not dissimilar from that of the countries he is worshipped in. He has piercing eyes that quickly but carefully survey every tactical situation and rarely smiles. He keeps up to date with military technology, lately his chariot has been sporting cannon.
In the Arumelian realms and in Celebrund, Herix is replaced in the Divine Circle by the Arumelian god of war Russk, a more bloodthirsty character. In some cases though, professional soldiers prefer to follow this god in those countries even in the face of their countries’ official doctrine.
