G
Grathbar - God of Loyalty, Vengeance
Alignment: LN
Domains - War, Trickery
Notes - Mostly a Dwarvish diety, but has been devoutly adopted by the Goblin race as well.
Ethos - Solidarity with your family / clan / race / religion. Be strong together so others will fear to attack one, knowing they will fight all. Let no blow go one go unpunished. Vengeance knows no honor, rules, or limits other than vengeance.
Benedictions - By Grathbar's Axe, vengeance shall be yours!
O
Old Religion - The Nuturing of Nature
Alignment: N(any)
Domains - Nature + one other (except Death)
Notes - A fractious decentralized religion, mostly composed of Druids and Shamans.
Ethos - Restore the balance within Nature and between the Wild and Civilization. (Most practictioners have different ideas on what that balance is.)
Benedictions - Few which span across the different sects.
Symbols - Look outdoors.
S
Sun Queen - Lady of the Dusk and Dawn
Alignment: NG
Domains - Life, Light
Notes - An Elvish diety brought by the colonists, belief has expanded to other races, especially gnomes and halflings.
Ethos - Be the light which guides the world to a better place. When the light fades be the promise of it's return. As the sun is reborn at dawn, let each new day be a blessing to all. The rainbow promises there is light and beauty even during the dark and stormy times.
Benedictions - "May the Queen light your way." "Be the Dawn the world needs."
Symbols - Sunsets, Sunrises, Rainbows
V
Volstadt - God of Justice, Sacrifice
Alignment: LG
Domains - Life, War
Notes - Originally the deification of the Paladin / Wizard Volstadt who sacrificed his life to save the other living creatures on his doomed planet. Now the most popular religion on Theriac. Most Paladins follow this faith.
Ethos - The good of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Justice should be tempered with compassion. Laws are made by and for those who would profit from them. When they conflict, choose that which is "Good" over that which is "Lawful."
Benedictions - "By Grathbar's Axe, vengeance shall be yours!" "Never give in, never give up!"
Symbols: A bloody axe, clasped gauntlets, a bloody hand.
