Lost in Darkness

Deity: Niosi, Lord of Life
Domains: Death, Earth, Healing
Common Followers: Clerics, Monks, Wizards
Follower Alignment: Lawful Neutral

Description: The decision between who lives and who dies is always in the hands of Niosi, or so his followers believe. Those who worship Niosi take a very strict vow to attempt to save any life which can be saved, but to always acknowledge that sometimes death must happen.

Teachings: Niosi teaches that there is a cycle to life and that there is no real end of living. Niosi teaches that when you die, you will be reborn in a new way which is more necessary for the world to progress, this can be in Resurrection, Reanimation, or Consumption. They are taught, however, to understand that all things in life must naturally come to end.

Religious Events: Every year, Monks of Niosi return to their monasteries to commence in a bizarre event known as “The Rising.” During this event, many Monks cease their journeys to begin the training of new men to defend the beliefs of Niosi.
