How Polytheism feels in Celtricia
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ic=from the wiki]
Worship is an essential part of the puzzle of Celtricia.  Inhabitants of this "World of Factions" do not just go through the motions of worship.  The Churches and temples are intertwined with the daily life in every town or city.  So the relationship a person has with the church or churches they belong to says much about their personality.

Also, the pantheon of the Celtrician Planars is huge and varied, and both the pantheon and the worship is polytheistic. The People of Celctricia are expected and encouraged to go to different churches, and while there still is competition for worship, the 'Pact Veritus'  that was put together by High Priestess Manwessa holds true in almost of the Celtrician continent.  This pact has brought about a situation where there is little strife and much cooperation between churches in a population center.  Though all folk have their own personal patron, what church to attend is based on events in a person's life.  No matter who a person's patron is, you will probably find them in the Platform of Trade (the Church of Ogleic) if they need help with money.  During the birth of a new child, people will leave offerings in the local churches of Froji or Vernidale, the Green Mother
[/ic]

This is a simplified, big picture.  And it actually is the case for the majority of people in the Celtrician world.  Most inhabitants stop by one temple or another nearly every day, and most often, it is there own patron or someone allied with that church.  It does not, however, mean that there is not tremendous antipathy between different churches.  The origin of the whole Lawful Triumverate religion is not merely one of three peaceful churches getting together because they thought they would work together well, it was a religion born out of conflict and as a response to the resurgence of the church of the Entropic Overlords in Hobyt Inn, around 450 RON.  And while more open disagreements and outward antipathy exist in churches that have major philosophical differences, sects that share a philosophical bias, or worse, a patron deity, are fighting for the same 'client demographic'.[note=from the Igbar page]Religion permeates Celtrician life.  A common greeting is "A Dou~his Ponder Hawaaka?", which tranlates to "Which god's house do you think today?".  This phrase is the equivalent of asking how a person's life is going, or even how they are feeling.  An average Igbarian probably visits a temple (Dou~his) every other day, or two out of three days.

Someone down on their luck might visit the Dou~his of lucky Ishma, someone depressed might visit Jubilex, the Patron of Irony, and farmers who are planing might visit the Church of the Green Mother or the Church of the Earth. Stopping by a church or shrine is also a very social event, and carries connotations uniquely Celrician.  Almost everyone is greeted by name, or in the case of travelers with the term "Kerma, Amigal!" (Debased Klaxik for 'Most Welcome, Friend').  Churches always have hot tea in the winters or chilled 'Kerri' (chilled, sweetened, and watered down Vneersberry wine) by the front door, and after respects are made to the icons, there are always sitting areas where elders gather and mothers and youngsters stop by. [/note]


In the Age of Statehood, the current era of Celtricia, the gods rarely communicate in any way with their worshippers.  So the books are written by people, the sermons are written by people, and the human imperfectino of understanding is imprinted into every church and religion. And this means human foibles and mistakes are made, though most of the common worshippers would never see it that way.  Alliances are made by people and sometimes dogma and belief change, due to people.

The GM bears a big duty to make this real to the players. The interwoven nature of religion has to show its face constantly.  The GM must keep his list of Holy Days close at hand, and make sure the PCs that are members of the clergy are given smatterings of information on the events and what behaviors are expected of them.  making sure the Patriarchs, Firsts, and other leaders of the various churches are known by all the PC's 'because everyone knows them' was also an important step.
Of coursde, some PC's respond to this better than others.

Area:Igbar
Name:The Church of Fortune (Ishma)
Affiliation with Larger: The Mother Church of Fortune is in Hobyt Inn.  The local is on the western portion of the Street of the Gods, towards the Unicorn Vex, Near Sheafe Street.  As with all in this particular sect, there are shrines to Malgoth of Chaos and Saint Pernic of Seau.
The Mother of Fortune here reports directly to the Great Mother of Fortune in Hobyt Inn, and the church rankings are linked to ther Mother Church.
 
Membership style: clergy and followers
 
% of starting membership: 40% Attrib bonus: WI (12/2)
 
Mission: The Church of Fortune gives succor to those that have been burnt by the vagaries of fate, and those that seek to curry favors with luck.  Ishma is also the patron of the spider and of taking making one's own luck.
 
Size: 19 dedicated clergy, 48 adjunct clergy, patronage 6th-9th

History: This church has it's roots in the Henurati (old Bright Lands) church of the Spider's Luck.  Though it has come down through many revolutions, the church of Fortune has downplayed the spider side (though that is important internally).
This parish started in 790 RON, and has often fueded with the Church of Chaos (Jubilex), though they have always been in a subordinate position.  The alliance formed 11 years ago when Timlin Hurler, looking for allies against his suspicions in the Vernidalian Church.
The Church of Fortune counts many worshippers from both the Blackstripes, the Eye, and the Bullyboys.  Inside their walls and in the courtyards, all the various 'denominations' of the underworld are safe from one another, and many who follow the dodgy path who have a religeous bent find their way here.
 
 
Current leader: Mother of Fortune Gretta Homintworth.
Current situation: This church is somewhat below the radar, and this is somewhat on purpose, when you are the church where 50% of the theives in town come around on Fastak.  
The are Allied with the Church of Chaos and the the Platform of Trade.
 
Gretta Homintworth's (Human fem, 43 years old, L10 spirit, l6 chaos, l6 animist) Husband is from The Rotter family, and they do own 2 merchant ships.  Gretta is also head of the Society of the Spider, the inner sect.  She contests heavily with Spear Marshall Sheering, the captain of the scarlet Pilums.
 
Chessa Veersinct (fem hobyt, 27 years old, l5 soc, l6 spirit, l3 chaos, l3 death) is a busty priestess with an Inkmisian bent, but too many people look at her chest without understanding her cunning mind.  She 'spends time' with Benshin Brendan Behan, the popular, muscular skald from Bertrand's bardic school.

Adult beverages that are found in the bars and inns of Igbar, expanded.  
Pc's flesh out more when the details of their existence are more known (such as shaken, not stirred) and consistent.  
For example, Kiko has a habit of sending Red Fire Brandy to people at the Sweet Retreat.

Also, Igbar has gone through some more additions and edits, but if anyone can tell, it's beyond me...

FreeThinkers
-----------------------------------------------
Igbar's Freethinkers is not so much of an organized group as a political persuasion.

Palimar Devensheld, the founder of the Alternative School of Magic, has seemed to gather politcal power effortlessly, while often being at odds with some of the older movers in town.  Palimar came into town and immediately used his position as a high-ranking priest in the Church of Earth as a bully-pulpit[1], forming coalitions where none had been, and coined the term 'Freethinkers' when he was called a maverick by Tierenessa Homintworth (in an admiring way).  He quickly formed a mision in the Leper's Bastion area of Town, wisely including the Church of Chaos into the effort.  This got him elected into the Lower House of the Unicorn as a Horn Magistrate in 890.  

His advantageous position grew when he was the one who found the evidence that Horn Minster of Commerce Coomi was actually acting on behalf of the Blackstripes[2] in 891, and in 892 he was elected to the Upper House of the Unicorn.

The basic tenet of this particular movement is a willing disregard for old alliances and old powers.  Palimar does not begrudge the Istari their wealth,  but the idea that this wealth makes them better than others is forbidden.  Understanding the idea of a politcal 'sunk-cost' is critical for a Freethinker, and removing prejudice is seen as an opportunity.

Freethinkers are often seen as a little too eager to throw of the shackles of older ideas just for the sake of doing so, however, and their detractors say their promises are empty due to their willingness to seek change.

1-As far as the play goes, Peter played Palimar as something of a moral crusader, and a ruthless networker. –²
2-A brilliantly played group of sessions. –²  

[ic= The Terrors of the Knife]
[/b][/size]

Area:Igbar
Name:Terrors of the Knife
Affiliation with Larger:  Only in large populations and where there are some "Serpent Queen" cultists will there be a group of these.  There is no national or extra-territorial organization.
Membership style: Mainly dedicated members, with a few members of this group having graduated to other positions,. but still dedicated to the cult. Fanatical might describe it.
 
% of starting membership: 20% Attrib bonus: cd (12/2) IN (10/1)
Mission: To eliminate enemies of the growth of the Cult of the Serpent Queen without being found out.
 
Size: 16, 6 recently slain by New Legion

History: The Terrors of the Knife were originally a product of the Church of The Circled Snake and Spider (Vernidale, Ishma, and Geryon) in the Astrikon times[1].  They were then a feared branch of assassins who still have some magic named after them.  Later, they served the Chruch of the Serpent Queen until the schism of 575 RON, when the northern churches (north of Argus, that is) became the Church of the Green Mother.  Whereas the Argussian and Omnian churches of the Serpent Queen are open, the cult of the Serpent Queen is hidden in the Cradle Area.
 
 
Current leader: Vigor Sheering.
Current situation: unknown to 95% of the populace, and most of those who know of the existence of such a branch don't think they are active in Igbar.  Some few members of opposing guilds (The staright Way, the Karin Machination) know of their existence but even these know nothing of the inner workings of the Terrors, and their exact tie to the church of the Green Mother (that being that they are actually the Assassin Branch of the Serpent Queen Cultists).
Currently, Vigor Sheering uses the Terrors to advance his agenda.  Green Mother Cheriol is the head of the Church of Vernidale, but she is also in the Serpent Queen Cult.  While she knows Vigor is head of the Terrors of the Knife, she is not aware of his position as Necromancer ally to The Black Hand (Kexiol Antroo, the recently unearthed Vampyre in the Wibble Hills in the hidden temple of Mammon)[2].  He has been pushing her to maintain her interdiction to the Herb Lands through Igtiche, which is allowing the Zyjmanese and the Firehazers to travel easily around the Astrikon plains and even the Tiche Plains[3].
It should be notated that the Firehazer tribe of the Wibble hills is now totally under the command of Kexiol's Black Hand, and he has sent overtures to Zyjman XIV in the Temple of Orcus the Unliving.

Footnotes

1-Obviously, in terms of play, this means that many of the older Astrickon tombs were actually dedicated to the older variation of Snake and Spider. –²
2-and as wearer of one of the three rings of Anginarian Necromancy Kexiol created. –²
3-The Tich PLains denote the breadbasket farming area between Igbar and Igtiche; the Astrikon plains are north and east of Igtiche. They include much of the area that the Astrikon traders claimed as their own. –² [/ic]

The Age of Heroes

The Age of Heroes is the second major epoch in the history of the Waking Dream.  It folllowed the mythic and disputed 'Age of Legends', and gained it's name from the emergence of mortal agents as the prime movers.  It also marks an era of written records become more common, especially towards the end, whereas most old written records dealing with the Age of Legends were actually written in the Age of Heroes, sometimes by Omwo~ eye witnesses, but more often they are examples of scholars putting down the words of an oral tradition.  

The Age of Heroes is generally assumed to have begun as the last of the Celestial Planars left the Waking Dream, due to the Accords of Presence, right after the legends describe the overthrowing of the Cairnhold.  This is placed at five thousand, nine hundred and ninety six years/cycles (-5996) before the beginning of Reckoning of Nebler calendar began.  The current time is year 895 in the Reckoning of Nebler.  The Age of Heroes is generally considered to have ended about fifteen hundred years before year zero, which means that it is generally considered to have lasted about 4500 years/cycles.





The beginning of the Age of Heroes also marks the coming of the other races into the Waking Dream.  Humans, called Pablar's Toys, were first sighted in recorded history about thirty years after the beginning of the Age.  Soon after this, the secong generation of the Sauroids was born, and then within a Hundred years of that the Stunatu (the working folk) came into the Waking Dream.  The Age of Heroes is considered the age where the other major arces developed.


Much of the following decades (indeed, centuries) involved the integration of the new races (and their small, but growing populations) into the already ancient civilizations of the Omwo~ peoples (Silverwood, the White Deeps, the Diurnal Deeps, etc).  in -5100 RON, the first of the Ogrillite peoples showed up, the new servants of Anthraxus, and a less than a hundred years later, Verkonen Vreeg founded the integrated Ambretton confederacy.


The Vicorian Confederacy started about -4200, and this was the first country to grow quickly and flower, entering into a full-scale renaissance within three hundred years/cycles.  While this was transpiring, Verkonnen Vreeg was born in the White City, the ancient Omwo~ citadel, and a little after -3760, the Temple complex of Winterlou was really coming into it's being, which would grow into the large city of Winterlou, the City State of Winter, and eventually Stenron, Capital of the Grey March.  The Age of Heroes is considered the Age where populations banded together, and the first Nation States really developed.  But it is important to understand that these Nation states were created, championed, and often destroyed by mortal heroes.


The Sauroid civilization was also a thing of the Age of Heroes.   In the Early part of this Age, the first clutches of Sauroid eggs hatched, and by -5100, the Sauroid population had grown to almost 300, in the northen settlement of Heret (Shells,  white Omwo~).  However, there was much fractiousness, and constant bickering made for a number of colonies elsewhere, including the Vernidalian Serpent Queen settlement on the Steel Isle.
 

But despite over four thousand years/cycles of growth and change, there is little contention that the theme of this large section of history is one of the mortal agents of the Planars.  This was there time.  And of these, none shine as brightly, in valor and villainy, in hopeless heroism and valiant despair, as the many-threaded tale of the Bard Himself and his fratricidal Brother, the arch-lich Arbor.  Many of the events that mark the Age of Heroes, the fall of Dragonhome Heret, the renaissance and destruction of Vicoria, the second Night of the Cairn, Vreeg's Damned Choice (still a heroic dirge sung by scholarly bards today), and many more are tied up in this epic tragedy.

Following the Age of Heroes is the Age of Statehood, manifested and demarked by the growth of the importance of Nationhood.

 

The Focus on the Arts and Ancient beauty
-------------------------------------------------

Art in Celtricia is held very dearly.  Famous artists in the Cradle area of Celtricia are viewed with the same veneration as other national heroes, and afficianadoes often know the names of every major work of an artist.

This attitude can be seen even more in the upper strata of society, where the means to purchase famous works and commision current artists is jealously fought over.  In fact, many philosophers argue that the level of artistic achievement a culture has reached, whether in the past or in the present, is the most important measure of that culture (See Harlond's Artistic Measure).

It is also important to note that this level of appreciation carries over to the theatre arts, which makes sense with the continued popularity of the Bardic Taverns.  

Art from ancient empires is especially precious.  In Trabler, the strange metal-wire statuary of the Venolvian Sealords,   the Nature Art of the Astrikon Traders, and the Devilkin-inspired works of the Old Orbic Exiles fetch piles of goodwives.  And many trading syndicates have whole companies involved with this enterprise.

Igbar

Lathe did the work. You'll have to save it and look at it at better definition to really appreciate the work.  But I had to put it up. The slightly magnified population centers are really interesting, and make for a good look.

Have you ever estimated how many hours of play-time Celtrica has seen?

Hey, Vreeg, have you ever created some kind of introduction or overview for the setting? Whenever i try to read it I'm always assaulted by the massive amount of information :p

Quote from: SteerpikeHave you ever estimated how many horus of play-time Celtrica has seen?

11,304 was the guestimate about 6 months ago.  Including the truly god-awful early college years, when my setting beat up on my GPA, heavy-duty...  It includes more groups than I can count.   This does not include 500-odd online hours of gametime, or the last 6 months of playing.  
In the early years, the first five or six years, I had trouble telling people no, something I have had to learn.  I had 4 different groups running for 2 semesters.

That's crazy.  Over an entire year of solid playing without breaks; if you were to take breaks simply to eat and sleep that'd probably amount to 3 years or so of uninterrupted, daily play.

Explains why the setting is easily the most detailed on these boards...

Quote from: Cataclysmic CrowHey, Vreeg, have you ever created some kind of introduction or overview for the setting? Whenever i try to read it I'm always assaulted by the massive amount of information :p

Crow, I know.  I really don't know where to start.  One of the problems with a Divset world is a lack of concrete focus.  I love you for telling me this, as it at least tells me people are still interested.  Maybe a thread with a few overview snippets?  

The Royal Way of Igbar
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Good Woerter, Dauphinee, you go down to Unicorn Vex every Fastak, and moon over every carriage and footman.  I swear you know every Istar family by name, and for what?  They're never going to even notice a Bastion girl"

The Unicorn Vex, or the Royal Way, is a huge promenade that draws a nearly straight line from the Recum (north) gate to the Eagle (also called the Trio or south) gate.  It is made of white brick, is almost 60 feet across, and is decorated by swards of greenery and fountains.  In the center of this is the Unicorn Keep, where the old fountain and court of the Argussians still graces the passer's by.

When the first settlement started with Coth the Pirate and the Shedu Inn, back in the late 200's, they found the remains of a circular manor, a sunken garden area, and a strange, white-bricked road that followed past the garden.


When the Argussians took over in 397 RON, much of the white Fidikmarple from the mansion had already been taken for the row of churches that was setting up just south of the sunken garden (which was already a place wher the wealthy were starting to inter their dead).  The Agussian's built their first governmental and defensive castle on the west (ocean) side of the old road, and rebuilt an old fountain in front of it.   This was somewhat in the middle of the religeous areas of the town to the east and the dockside and coasteal areas to the west.


in the next decade, the Eagle Keep of the Northern Argussian court grew, and was joined by the Order of the Steel Libram across the old, wide road.


Over the decades, the old road became the new 'Royal Way', once the docks and seaside part of the town grew to meet the other side, and merged over the Roayl way, and by 510 RON, there was no trace of the seperation of the wards of Igbar. In 560 RON, Parcel Sheering of the Istar Sheering family, added to and widened the white-bricked road.

Centuries later, when Trabler Aptor of the Winfire Trading Guild led the merchant's coup, the road was officially renamed the 'Unicorn Vex'.  This thoroughfare is one of the most desired addresses in the city, and the ride from the Unicorn Vex to the Godstraat on fastak and back is something of a promenade for the well-to-do.
