A New Religion

Post by Arel37 » 12 May 2016, 14:21

Why we must use real world religion basis in different names while we can create a new roleplay religion ? Why there is only Christianity-copy figures in Lore section ?

Lets make a new religion for LiF. First we need a template. Then players will suggest codes for religion. Then we will choose the prophet. Then it will be done.

There are lots of RP servers. Most of them have independent lore. Lore includes religion aspects.

For example, RPCLIF server:

Every cult will come to mmo lands with own religion and will try to spread it among other players.

A very interesting idea. I also feel like because they have outlined pseudo religions in the racial backstories of each group, and we are not separated by race in the MMO or YO that a blending of sorts would take place. There seems to be no racial tension, that I have seen yet anyways, nor any religious divides. I can see 4 new religions coming to life because of this a Slavard-Khoor hybrid, a Kohn-Gottlung hybrid, a Gottlun-Slavard hybrid, and a Slavard-Khoor-Gottlun amalgamation. And without much explanation as to how we are where we are perhaps LiF is the next step and discovering that all three religions with differing beliefs ended up in the same place will spark a reformation.

no one is telling you what religions are available, nor what religion to believe in...

and people from two different races are not called "hybrids"

Excuse Me Sir, do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and Savior, Cthulhu?

The Kingdom of Hyperion will be bringing its religious doctrines to the land of LIF, along with different flavors of that religion. As an example, Azerath of SSR has numerous posts in the lore section, and The Reverend Father Varrick Chaoswielder, currently of Wessex, will be posting soon as well.

Rest assured these deeply spiritual characters will be looking to convert all players.

Greetings,
Indeed we are founding a brand new "Church". This religious system similar to the Papal States (thus in functioning its own "fief" with peasants, armies, clergy, merchants and all that) in the medieval ages with the Catholic Church.

The religion system is detailed with hundreds of pages of lore that is being slowly entered into a new website (coming in the next few weeks).

The god the Kingdom follows is "Soldeus" (pronounced Sol-Dei-Us which means Sun God). He is a God who supports the feudal system by granting divine mandate, and has a clergy loyal to him that preach compassion... But sometimes that fails... That is where the darker side comes out to play, and no one likes that :)

Each race has a back story religion, and that is what I was referring too. They are not named so I was referring to them by the race that believes in them according to their back story. So it was a hybrid of the two race's religions mentioned in their respective backstory not a hybrid race of people.
