Farishi

### Information

Farishi is the faith followed by the Fa'unii and the Druids that came before them. It centers around a few central gods, the Paragon, and their non-biological children, the Sonang.

### Gods

There are 3 heads of the Paragon, these are the Ysaris, and they are:

* Vagen: God of the sky
* Lagen: God of the waters
* Dagen: God of the land

It is believed that the other Paragon are below, but not subservient to, the Ysaris. These other Paragon, the Iztris, are:

* Ydite: God of war
* Kiterin: God of the oceans and seas
* Ovton: God of fire
* Bomais: God of labour
* Dhamos: God of fertility
* Etis: God of rebirth
* Phexses: God of the weather
* Etia: God of animals

The Sonang are thought to be less powerful than the Paragon, and are commonly thought of as more specialized than the Paragon, considered more as patrons than as gods. There are hundreds of Sonang, but the most commonly worshipped ones are these:

* Idall: God of smithing
* Unas: God of freedom
* Zegdall: God of love
* Lozara: God of the stars
* Ozsus: God of beauty
* Phuotl: God of magic
* Therphin: God of the harvest
* Edotl: God of sleep
* Teone: God of Beer

### Gods

It is said that the Holy book of the Farishi faith - the Naury - was created when a summoning went wrong. The druids read the book and learned of how the world was created and the gods. Their descendants, the Fa'unii, now follow the faith, though less so as time has worn on.

### Life after Death

Farishi scripture states that once you die you will be reborn as a new being, taking the place of the next Farishi believer to die. The only thing that you take into the next life is your face, which will adapt to your new race but still look reminiscent of your face from your old life. If there is a wait it is said that you are kept in a heaven-like environment, with no physical body, only a spirit.

### Creation Story

The Farishi creation story goes as follows; In the beginning there was nothing. No space. No earth. No stars. All that there were were the Paragon. Of the Paragon only the Ysaris were awake, and even so their eyes were closed, and the rest slept, drifting through nothingness. Then, Dagen opened their eyes, and the celestial bodies appeared. The sun and the moon appeared in what was now "space" and planets and other galaxies appeared from nothing. Then Dagen closed their eyes for another million years. After another million years Dagen opened their eyes once more, and the earth was created. This created an almighty stir in the universe. In this moment the other Ysaris, Vagen and Lagen were shaken, and upon opening their eyes were the sky and seas created. This activity awoke the other Paragons. When opening their eyes they each brought to the earth their own thing. Most important of these was Etia, who created the animals. Of those animals, some were given the ability to wage war by Ydite. These would now be considered conscious beings. The other Paragon would work together to bring other things into the world, for example Phexses and Ovton, who together created lightning. After their work was done, the Paragons created the Sonang, who assisted the conscious beings in life, to allow them to progress. Now the world was complete, and the Ysaris could properly rest while the Iztris and Sonang looked after the world.
