Universism

Universism is the belief that there is a second universe, the New Universe, Paradise. Paradise is described by Lavishicus among the lines of, "you will be fulfilled and receive eternal joy." Universists believe that the God of the New Universe is Lavishicus, and, although the universe inhabited in Stoneworks is not his, he has the ability to control and influence it, just not as strongly over his own. It is believed his control grows stronger with more worship, thus more people are able to be brought to eternal fulfillment in Paradise. The canon Novum Universum staes he created Five Caretakers to watch over the universe, as he favors both universes. Starrus of the stars and the sun. Noxxus of the moon and darkness. Adolescence of youth and fertility. Planteres of farming. Incursio, the dictator of the Void and death. It is stated Lavishicus created them to be the universe's own gods so that he can be worshipped when they'd be worshipped. At the same time, Lavishicus is also worshipped by Universists, especially primarily.
=== Constellations ===
There is one person, per generation that is the closest to Lavishicus. Originally, it was the man (Celeste Noviorbis from the book in the canon, New World) the Caretakers created themselves, the Constellation. He passed on his teachings and ability to nurture future Constellations. The Constellation must have disciples, so that the tradition can carry on. Currently, it is (IGN: Eddie9658). The Constellation also acts as a leader to Universism.
=== Lavishicus ===
Universists believe Lavishicus is the primary and true god, as well as the God of the New Universe, Paradise. The protagonist of the creatino of Universism canon, Celeste Noviorbis, refers to Lavishicus as his Divine Father, for he and the Caretakers gave creation to him and the ability to pass down being a Constellation. Lavishicus is described in the canon as "wearing a jack-o-lantern with divine blue fire," "resembling a deputy," "wearing a brown hat, like a cowboy's," "wearing a cloak that shows a glimpse of the New Universe." and he mentions that Lavishicus has humanly proportions. This refers to his avatar, which he manifests before him in the book, "New World." 
=== Novum Universum ===
Novum Universum is the name of the canon that Universists refer to for worship and information. It is constructed of several books, "Constellation," "New World," and "Inanis Rebellio." The book, Constellation gives an overview on The Caretakers' hatred toward humanity, for they fail to worship Lavishicus. Starrus began his wrath to display the power of the true god. However, Lavishicus stopped him and summoned The Caretakers to create a human with knowledge of the true god and to receive their blessings to spread Universism. Although his name was Celeste Noviorbis, they referred to him as "Constellation," which is why Celeste passed down the tradition of nurturing the next one (originally his son.) New World displays the life he lived and how he spread Universism. It also includes his studies on worship, where most of the information comes from. The final book displays how the Caretaker of the Void, Incursio, Dictator of Death begins to be influenced strongly by the Void. This causes the monsters created by the tormented souls to break out, with Incursio as his leader. They ravage the worlds of the universe, but cannot reach the New Universe, leaving the rest who didn't worship Lavishicus to suffer. It is the display of a prophecy, which can be prolonged, according to Lavishicus. He states that, with greater worship, his creation Incursio will not falter so easily. In the same prophecy, Lavishicius gives Celeste several commandments, and he ensures that his goals will be reached. This is also a week before Celeste's death, where he holds a great festival for Lavishicus and writes down all the information of the prophecy and the commandments. He gives a speech about the New Universe and Lavishicus's will and sends his regards, then he burns in the divine blue fire, though it was painless for him. Afterward he ascends and disappears before the eyes of the Universists present at the festival. HIs final day was at the age of 94.
