ZIZAERIX (3781)
True Magic is a powerful gift wielded by a fortunate few, yet its presence
permeates nearly everything, allowing even those not naturally gifted the
ability to harness its strength. This unapologetic and unashamed force is
revered by the Order of Veritas, a tight-knit fellowship forged by integrity
and loyalty, where knowledge is shared freely and concealment is seen as a
dishonor to the foundations of Truth and Honesty.
Beyond its practical applications, Magic empowers the Order to explore deeper
realities and uncover hidden meanings. It allows them to reveal hidden
knowledge and the true essence of the people and things around them. Followers
of this faith seek to expose the true intentions of those who doubt and
deceive, putting an end to any who would destroy these very foundations.
The Tenets of the Order of Veritas:
- Magic is a tool used to illuminate reality and expose the truth, not shroud
it. Those who hide or deceive are profane, and true believers are forbidden
from using spells like invisibility and duo dimension.
- Integrity is at the heart of this faith. Dishonesty and disloyalty are
unforgivable sins. Thieves, assassins, traitors, and spies wield deception
and concealment as their weapons, acts that are an affront to all this faith
stands for. Keep these individuals accountable by holding a mirror up and
confronting them with the truth of their actions. In extremely rare cases,
an assassin who has abandoned subterfuge and stealth in favor of overt
malice may find favor with the faith, depending on their conduct and
adherence to its tenets.
- Followers are inherently truthful and dedicated to seeking the truth in
others, uncovering both knowledge about the world and themselves. The mirror
is a powerful tool for introspection and interrogation.
- Magic is a gift to serve Truth and Honesty, but it is constantly at risk
from those who seek to destroy it. The Battleragers, and any who would
willingly thicken the Veil, are therefore sworn enemies of this faith.
Members of the Order of Veritas adhere to a personal code of principles,
rooted in authenticity and clarity, that shape their beliefs, which they live
by and may share openly with others. Personal alignment holds no sway here as
the Order welcomes all who are steadfast in their dedication to these tenets.
Zizaerix and his Order meet to share their ideals in a remote temple atop the
mountains overlooking sand and sea.
Shamans who follow Zizaerix are limited to the paths of Revelation and
Proclamation.
