Jimgoism

Jimgoism is an unofficial religion which worships Jimer of Jimrock as its God. The religion is unrecognized by Jimer, as he sees it ridiculous, how some think a God should be born as a lowly burgher.
In Edelmaa, the Religion of Jimgoism grew larger and larger after the end of the Borian War. Jiri, the King of Workhold, secluded himself inside his hidden palace of Cainwall and this probably created some mysticism around him which served as an catalyst for the worshiping. The believers not only see Jiri as a deity because of his "Holy Reign" and "Sacred Conquest of the Heathen Land" but also obviously because of him being the son of Jimer, the center point of original worship. Jimer's other sons have also become deities in the religion of Jimgoism recently and so far only Kaleondras, the son of Leondras and grandson of Jiri is the only descendant of Jimer that has accepted his position as a sacred being. He became an open Holy Man of the Faith as the Duke of Baathúr island, one of the most sacred places in all of the religion.
Kaleondras' father, Leondras is a great deity in his own right. He is known as St. Leondras for he was a martyr who died during the Scouring of Ili-Fien at the hands of the "Great Infidel Bastard Marrius Gonvelsia". A massive monument in honor of Leondras was built on Ili-Fien where he is depicted as an holy being,
