Faiths of Abbatia

Abbatia's position on the outer edge of the Overhill region has made it a nexus point of many influences, both good and ill. This eclectic mix of barbarian, Sorian, local, ancient, and demihuman interests has resulted in a diverse mix of faiths throughout the kingdom. The major religions of the region are
Laestragone: god of souls and judgement
Balgor: god of warfare and strength
Morda: god of the earth (a human variant of the Dwarven god Moradin and the same guy when it comes right down to it)
Corva: god of forests and nature (aka. Coralin Lorenthian)
Aer: goddess of the weather and the sky, and spring
Ceria goddess of dreams and homes, protector of women, bringer of vengance for wrongs against women, sister to Cerio
Cerio god of dreams and prophesy, brother to Ceria


Lesser Faiths

These faiths have either come into the region recently or are left over from previous times. In their times, each of these faiths was among the most popular in the region. Over time, they have fallen from popularity, yet each still retains a following.
Bast: goddess of cats and single women
Tyr god of justice
Idun: god of leaders seer of the future, betrayer of warriors
Asmodeus: Demon prince of beauracracy
Posideon: Lord of the seas
Aphrodite: goddess of love
Ursa: goddess of strength
Hecate: goddess of night and vengance

Of these many faiths, most are given leave to maintain at least a small force of paladins, such as Idun's Vargsarks, or Bast's Chosen Ones. Of notable exception to this generalization are the worshippers of Balgor, Ursa, Hecate, and Asmodeus. Two of the religions have established knighthoods and are given dispensation to enforce the king's justice if there is no other agent of the King at the scene. These knighthoods, along with the regular Abbatian armies are described elsewhere (see the link below).
