Gurei's Messengers

==="No god exists in a vaccuum. Neither should their people."===
First conceived of aboard the Suntrawler , Gurei's Messengers are meant to represent the connections between the members of the pantheons present in Fexalere. Originally working as go-betweens for two separate temples, Messengers often found themselves torn between the lessons of both gods. This emotional turmoil had a tendency to drain the individual, leaving them bitter, exhausted, or otherwise unable to fulfill their duties to either temple.
Siroko Ezalja-en Glassclimber, a follower of Gurei, first presented the solution from what he claimed was a message from his god. "As people must work together," he claimed, "so too must the gods. Devotion to one alone leads to narrowness of thought and cultural isolation. Those who worship one must also learn from others to achieve true balance."
Though his ideas were treated as laughable at first, Siroko's teachings eventually found purchase within the religious community of the Suntrawler, and eventually the many worlds of the Cordens System. Many cultures have since adopted the ideas of Messengers, allowing many temples to communicate and share ideas. These Messengers embody a hybridization of the teachings of both gods, drawing power from each one in part.
Mechanically, characters who choose to be Messengers with the Domain or Favored Weapon class features must still choose one god to devote themselves to. However, the Messenger may choose to replace up to two domains from their primary god with those of a secondary god, representing their hybrid teachings.
