Church of the Five

The dominant and official religion of the Reign, the Church of the Five holds the titular Five Gods as the creators and rulers of the known universe.

The Five Gods

In descending order of divine authority, the Five who are worshipped by the Church are Akkos, Likos, Thea, Jatos, and Hemos.

Akkos

Akkos came to the Universe from Beyond, and when He arrived it came to be. Akkos saw the Universe lacked design, so he made the World and called upon his brother Likos to aid him in creation. The ruler of the Gods, Akkos is the brother of Likos and husband of Thea. He is father to Jatos and Hemos.

Likos

Called to the Universe by Akkos, Likos advised his brother in the making of the World. Likos is the brother of Akkos. He is often called the Adviser, and his followers vastly outnumber any other god's among the peoples of the Reign.

Thea

Thea was made to bring light to the Void, and so she rules over all that is seen and unseen. Thea is the wife of Akkos, and patron of Seers and artists of all sorts.

Jatos

The General of Heaven, Jatos is the youngest of the Gods, and aids mortals in pursuit of meaning, along with his brother, Hemos.

Hemos

Called Bright-Eye by his mother and Dancer by his brother, Hemos was brought forth before Jatos, and he thus brought meaning to the World. He created Men, and gave them direction.
