Embodiment of Order
Deity

Peios, Embodiment of Order. Peios is a humanoid with stoic golden features, no hair, and he casts no shadow. He represents law and order. To worship Peios is to be systematic, adhere to reason, follow the letters of the law, and stamp out chaos. The holy symbol of Peios is a single, gazing eye, a symbol of his considering mind.

Those who follow Peios shape reality around them. A carriage arrives right on your doorstep despite being across the town moments before; wherever you sit, you find a chair; every location has exactly what you need by mere chance; and you never find yourself lost or stumbling.

The truly devout can bend reality to their will, fabricating objects or even creatures out of thin air with their divine power, and shaping the area around them to suit their needs. The power of Peios' followers, a peian, comes from their mind; a follower of high standing needs no weapon as long as they have their head, and they may even find themselves in multiple places at once.

To gain the favor of Peios, a follower can consider the following.

  • Building or restoring a temple to Peios. Peios accepts worship from anyone who is not chaotic in their base nature. Keeping order is paramount.
  • Helping preserve the balance of power in a city. The status quo is an important aspect to maintain when preserving balance. Smaller settlements like towns or outskirt villages are more Thrizur's domain.
  • Carrying out punishment on a fugitive from justice. Criminals, by default, are disorderly and are to be held in check to preserve law and order.
  • Solving a challenging riddle or puzzle. Raw power is not important to Peios. It is much better to resolve a test of strength using wit or skill.
  • Besting a Champion of Anvil, preferably through skill. Followers of Peios and Anvil are directly opposed, where Peios brings law and order, and Anvil has no care in this regard.
  • Assisting lawgivers in their duties and generally bringing order in times of chaos.
  • Honoring an oath. Conversely, breaking an oath is the highest offense to Peios.
