Yamato Faiths
The Yamato faiths are a pair of pantheons worshiped primarily in the nations of Yamato culture in the Oriental Sea, primarily Yamatai, Mizuho, Ningyo Shima and Hinomoto; it is also practiced to a lesser extent in parts of Soleil and Yamatai's provinces in western Marlakcor, and has been on the rise in Maritymir through Yamatai's colony the Kappa Islands.

The Idainaryū
The Idainaryū, also called the Great Dragons, are a pantheon of sixteen dragon deities.

Followers of this faith believe these dragons are the source of a soshihito's ability to manipulate the elements. Synonymously known as spirits, each dragon has its own attribute that reflects the essence of nature.


 * Akagane, the Copper Dragon: Spirit of Metal.
 * Akairo, the Ruby Dragon: Spirit of Fire.
 * Ao, the Sapphire Dragon: Spirit of Ice.
 * Kessho, the Diamond Dragon: Spirit of Wind.
 * Kiiro, the Topaz Dragon: Spirit of Lightning.
 * Kogane, the Golden Dragon: Spirit of the Sun, ruler of all dragons and lord of Tengoku.

The Idainaryū aren't always all worshiped at the same time. Some areas place more emphasis on one or more dragons than the others. (e.g. Most elves that follow this faith tend to place emphasis on Midori, the Emerald Dragon, more than the other dragons; and Kogane, the Golden Dragon, is largely worshiped in parts of Soleil more than the other dragons).

Himekami

Minor Religions
Some religions and churches are little known despite many followers, or have few followers outside their place of origin. Most are simply not worshiped outside a confined region, usually where they were founded, or are just not extent enough to be counted amongst the major religions of the world.

The Ocean God
The Ocean God, popularly known as "Aequor," is a sea deity popular with seamen of all races. Followers believe that he creates all the natural phenomena that occurs at sea, storms, waves, maelstroms, etc. either to help them get to where they need to be, or to divert them because they're not meant to reach their destination.

Temple of Pleasure
The Temple of Pleasure is a minor sect that worships a sex and fertility goddess called Syrilumei, who is often depicted as a nude, voluptuous, lascivious, and buxom woman. Followers of this faith consider sex to be a holy and life-affirming act that honors their goddess.

Pagan in origin, the Temple was originally founded in pre-colonial northern Nekcroz by a culture known to history as the Niicrukala people, but has since spread to most parts of the world. Regardless, the religion remains partially obscure, but it is a popular religion amongst prostitutes, and is therefore often introduced via brothels; it is not uncommon for such occupants to convert.

This religion is popular with succubi and incubi as well. Consequently, to those who don't know better, it is believed that Syrilumei is a deified succubus, but practitioners of the faith staunchly claim and believe otherwise.

Terragaia
Terragaia is a primordial mother goddess that originated in the Eurodon, predating even the Zedylrian Empire.

A goddess of pagan origin, Terragaia, often depicted as a nude women covered in thin vines, flowers, and leaves, is viewed as the mother of all humankind, and the divine protectress of nature. Followers also of the faith also believe that Terragaia grants wisdom to men so that they fare well in battle, and strength to women to endure childbirth.

Terragaia is also believed to be a mother deity; specifically, she is believed to be the mother of various mythological figures and deities, but many philosophers dispute this.

A minor religion these days, the faith is pagan in origin, predating the current states by thousands of years. While she has been replaced by several religions of Eurodon over the past few thousand years, Terragaia is still acknowledged is many societies; even parts of Aquilonis and the Eurodian south acknowledge Terragaia.

The Sky God and the Ocean Goddess
The Sky God and the Ocean Goddess, better known by their proper names Leduo and Aymii respectively, are a pair a lover deities worshiped solely in the Republic of Gargantia.

The myth claims that Leduo descended from the heavens after losing a fight to a superior and evil god (who is known by many names, but the popular one is Krugier), and Aymii nursed him back to health. Leduo eventually fell in love with Aymii and swore to protect her from any danger. Aymii fell in love with Leduo in return and worried that he will never return when he left to defeat the evil god for good; but Leduo prevailed and returned to Aymii's side.

Every year, festivals are held to commemorate the loving reunion of Leduo and Aymii.

It is believed that Leduo and Aymii left several children in the mortal world, and several people claim descent from them, but these claims are difficult to prove.

Church of the Heavenly Virtues
The Church of the Heavenly Virtues, also known as the Faith of the Seven Archangels, is a minor offshoot religion of the Faith of Septem that worships the seven archangels that represent the seven virtues. These archangels are considered subordinate to the seven lunaculi worshiped by the Faith of Septem. It was founded in opposition to the founding of the Cult of Sins.

The Seven Archangels are; Besides Septemics, the seven archangels are also moderately worshiped by those of other faiths, such as Athalims and followers of Swyll'zhor.
 * Michael: Archangel of Humility, also Pride as a virtue; he is the brother of Lucifer, a Fallen Angel that lost their father's favor before becoming a demon.
 * Uriel: Archangel of Patience.
 * Sariel: Archangel of Kindness.
 * Sandalphon: Archangel of Diligence.
 * Metatron: Archangel of Charity.
 * Raphael: Archangel of Temperance.
 * Gabriel: Archangel of Chastity.

These seven archangels are also the progenitors of the seven recognized Great Angel Clans.

Heaven, the Underworld & Hell
The concepts of Heaven and Hell, the afterlife and damnation, are common beliefs across the world. It is universal belief that the Spirit World is made up of two or layers, and heaven and hell represent some of them. Almost all religious faiths speak of heaven and hell in some measure, and all believe that whichever one moves on to upon death is subject to a judgement by some higher power, particularly a specific god that represents the afterlife.

Heaven
Heaven, the realm of the afterlife, is where people supposedly go when they have a good life.

Heaven and the afterlife is known by many names in different cultures and religions.
 * Aaru: the term for heaven in Kemetan culture, also known as the Field of Reeds.
 * Ĉielo: the term for heaven lizardfolk cultures.
 * Eden: the term for heaven commonly used by the Faith of Septem; described as a tropical paradise where residents wander in the nude, free of shame and the stresses of the mortal world.
 * Elysium: the term for heaven originating in northeastern Eurodian cultures. The term is still used occasionally across parts of Patria.
 * Nirvana: the term for heaven in the Shivajism faith.
 * Rai: the term for heaven in vampiric culture, presided over by Ua.
 * Taoger: an ancient term for heaven in Elven cultures.
 * Tengoku: the term for heaven in Yamato culture.
 * Tian: the term for heaven in Tuzhu culture.
 * Titania's Grove: while a known physical place in the living world, Titania's Grove is believed by Alfheimish fairies to be where the spirits of the deceased reside upon being judged fit for the afterlife. Believed to be the Alfheimish equivalent to Eden.
 * Tlalocan: the term of heaven in central Nekcrozi cultures
 * Valhalla: the term for heaven in the Ostliger cultures of eastern Eurodon, and the homeland of the Ostliger gods and the Valkyries. The Valkyries are female warrior spirits that escort the deceased, and fallen warriors in particular, to their afterlife in Valhalla.

Underworld & Hell
While also a physical place beneath the surface of Patria, the spiritual concepts of the underworld and hell are often used interchangeably, and are sometimes confusingly believed to be one and the same, but it is most commonly believed that the underworld and hell are two layers of the same plane away from the world of the living, with hell considered lower than the underworld.

The Underworld, sometimes known as Limbo, is the realm of the dead, where the dead reside before judgement. Hell is the realm of the damned, where those who have committed grave sins in their life spend the rest of eternity. Some cultures describe Hell as a blazing inferno of fire and lava, while other sources describe it as a frigid frozen wasteland.

Those who have committed a grave sin in their life are usually condemned to eternity in Hell, the believed lower part of the underworld, or to simply remain in the underworld forever.

Some cultures and faiths have no concept of the underworld, only hell, and so refer to the underworld as limbo, or the ghostly plane, the netherworld, or the astral plane, where they await judgement before being sent on; other cultures and faiths have no concept of hell, only the underworld, and so believe that the damned walk in the underworld for eternity, unable to move on to the afterlife.

The Underworld and Hell are known by many names in different cultures and religions, and are sometimes considered one and the same, or have no concept of one or the other.
 * Diyu: the term for hell in the Tuzhu culture. Its capital is the city of Youdu.
 * Duat: the term for the underworld in Kemetan culture, presided over by Osiris.
 * Hades/Tartarus: interchangeable terms for the underworld or hell, originating in northeastern Eurodian cultures. The terms are still used interchangeably across parts of Patria.
 * Helheim: the term for hell in eastern Eurodian cultures.
 * Iad: the term for the underworld and hell in vampiric culture; ruled by Erohoris.
 * Infero: the term for the underworld in lizardfolk cultures.
 * Jigoku: the term for hell in Yamato culture, ruled by Kokuyoseki, the Obsiadian Dragon.
 * Jotenheim: the Alfheimish fairy term for the underworld and hell. Described as a frozen wasteland ruled by King Thrym from his castle of Thrymheim.
 * Lofykear: an ancient term for the underworld and hell in Elven cultures.
 * Naraka: the term for hell in Shivajism Faith.
 * Purgatory: the term for hell used by the Faith of Septem; described as a blazing inferno of fire and lava. Like in Eden, residents are stripped naked; but unlike in Eden, they retain their shame and it is believed that they are being displayed for all to see so that they are more vulnerable to the terrors of Purgatory.
 * Xibalba: the term for the underworld in central-Nekcrozi cultures

Other Mythological figures
There are several mythological figures whose existence is either obscured by myth or so famous that they've passed into legend. Most existed either before, or just after, the time of the first lunaculi.

Adam & Eve
The first human man and woman. Legends say that direct descendants of them possess a unique sense.

Hyacintho Michael & Vermiculus Lucifer
According to common myth, Hyacintho Michael and Vermiculus Lucifer were the first angel and demon receptively. They are also the fathers of Tallulah Michael and Xyliana Lucifer respectively. The popular myth portrays them as cousins descended from the same god (who's name has been lost to history) but fell in with different crowds: Hyachintho's father was a well-known archangel Michael, so Hyachintho followed the ways of light and angels, becoming an archangel in his own right; while Vermiculus, his father Lucifer a fallen angel that lost favor with his divine father, fell to the dark side and became a demon, eventually becoming a minor demon lord (popular myth says that he is the right-hand servant of Satan).

The two then became bitter enemies fighting to assert dominance over the mortal world in the name of either light or darkness. The only thing that ended their fighting is the birth of their twin daughters via the same mortal woman, who's name has been recorded in history simply as "Maria."

Oberon & Titania
The first male and female fairies of Patria, and the king and queen of all fairies, both of the human-sized fairies of Alfheim and of the diminutive pixies of the surface. Most people believe them to have been real people, and some believe they still exist.

Orion & Delphia
Orion and Delphia were legandary centaurs.

Tyrion & Luctiana
Tyrion and Luctiana were the first elven emperor and empress in recorded history, according to myth. According to elven mythology, they were the rulers of the legendary/mythical Empire of Konjyrnia. They are also deified in the Taogerites of the Elven Pantheon as the "Lawgiver" and the "Maiden" respectively.

Marina & Ophir
Marina and Ophir were the first mermaid and merman, according to merfolk mythology.

Dark Religion
Dark religion is a form of religion where followers worship some dark deity or several Dark ones. They are often looked down upon by most people, particularly if they are followers of a holy religion. The Dark Churches around Patria are often subject to isolation despite their many followers.

Church of Chaos
The Church of Chaos, sometimes known as the Dark Church, the Chaos Order, or the Dark Order, is the hidden church that worships the Gods of Chaos.

Under the command of the Great Lord of Chaos, a title that is both religious and militaristic, the Church's primary figure of worship is Voldrazar, the Dark Lord of Chaos who was defeated by the lunaculi, but the church also pays homage to two other chaos deities who were Voldazar's "hands," Maldrazell and Syle'rikinia.
 * Maldrazell: According to popular myth, Maldrazell was the right-hand-man of the Dark Lord Voldrazar. He is depicted as a black-robed skeleton with bones made of dark crystal. A cult dedicated to him once tyrannically ruled the City of Maldrazik, now called the City of Rondar, before the Order of Rondar took it from them.
 * Syle'rikina: According to popular myth, Syle'rikina was the left-hand-woman of Voldrazar. She is depicted as a demonic succubus who could suck out the souls of anyone she fed off of, something a normal succubus simply can't do.

The Church also pays homage to chaos deities from other faiths as part of a "Pantheon of Chaos."

The Church is underground and hidden from public eye, most not even knowing of its existence, save for their mortal enemies, the Order of Eden. But, unlike other dark religions, the followers of the Dark Church are a bit more active through it's armed branch, the Army of Chaos. The purpose of this church is purely conquest, pandemonium, and the genocide of all things "mortal", with their leaders seeking to plunge all of Patria into chaos, and most seeking the eventual resurrection of the Dark Lord Voldrazar.

The Church and the Army together operate under the "Rule of Three." While there may be thousands of men and women in service to the church or the army, there can only be three leading lords at any given time: the Great Lord of Chaos, and his/her two subordinates, the "Left Hand of Chaos" and the "Right Hand of Chaos." The Great Lord is marked by a gold Chaos symbol necklace, while the Left and Right Hands are marked by a chaos necklace that also bears the respective hand.

Church of Satan
The Church of Satan is the primary church that worships the Devil King Satan. The Church of Satan has no official headquarters and is underground. The Church of Satan was once the rulers of the Empire of Darkania, before it was defeated by the Holy Papal Empire and the main worshipers of the Faith of Septem.

Cult of the Sins
The polar opposite of the Faith of Septem, the Cult of the Sins is a dark religion that worships seven demons that equate to the seven mortal sins. The seven demons and demonesses of the sins are; These seven demons are also the progenitors of the seven recognized Great Demon Clans.
 * Lucifer, Demon of Pride; Lucifer is actually a Fallen Angel that became a demon, and the brother of Michael.
 * Leviathan, Demoness of Envy.
 * Astaroth, Demoness of Wrath.
 * Belphegor, Demon of Sloth.
 * Mammon, Demon of Greed.
 * Beelzebub, Demon of Gluttony.
 * Asmodeus, Demoness of Lust.

Extinct Religions
Extinct religions are religious beliefs that are no longer practiced, but not necessarily forgotten.

List of extinct religions

 * Gallic Pantheon: The Gallic Pantheon was the gods worshiped by the Gallic Peoples before the introduction of the Faith of Septem.
 * Great Eagle: The Great Eagle was a deity worshiped by the Nekrc'zii culture before being combined with the Jadeites.
 * Hesperian Pantheon: the gods worshiped by the Hesperian peoples before the introduction of the Faith of Septem.
 * Salroka: The god worshiped by the Salrin people before the introduction of the Faith of Septem.
 * Zedylrian Pantheon: The pantheon worshiped by the ancient Zedylri of the Zedylrian Empire, and, for a time, the successor states. The pantheon soon phased out of use as it was replaced by other religions, most notably the Faith of Septem. The Solramese who created the calendar used several members of the pantheon as names of the months of the year, and parts of other names for the days of the week. Aside for that one remaining mark, very few people remember what the names of the many deities were.
