Olean Pantheon
Type: RELIGIONCurator: Jon Evans
Description
The polytheistic Olean Pantheon is one of the most ancient religions in Baranur.
The Olean creation myth describes how Ol, paternalistic founder of the universe, used the Circlet of Power to create Makdiar and beings -- both gods and men -- to oversee it.
Oleans always eat pork on holy days in reference to the myth that Ol first gave a pig to each of the gods to show them what life is.
The pantheon contains the following gods: Ol; Nehru, God of Battle; Celine, Goddess of Tranquility; Saren, God of Suffering; Shilsara, Goddess of Lust/Desire; Cahleyna, Goddess of the Moon; and Kurin, God of the Sun.
