Tempest's Faithful
In the unpredictable and treacherous world of Thaldrin's domain, the Tempest's Faithful find solace in their god's protection and guidance, trusting that the lord of the sea will both challenge and reward those who dare to navigate the tempestuous waters.
Structure
The Church of Thaldrin, known as the Tempest's Faithful, is organized into local congregations led by Tempestcallers. These congregations are often found in coastal towns and cities, serving the communities of sailors, fishermen, and all who rely on the sea for their livelihoods. High Tempestcaller Aric Stormbringer serves as the supreme leader of the entire church.
Culture
The culture of the Tempest's Faithful is deeply intertwined with the sea and its mysteries. They celebrate festivals dedicated to Thaldrin during significant nautical events, such as the beginning and end of the storm season. These festivals are marked by grand feasts, recitations of epic sea tales, and rituals to appease Thaldrin's wrath. The church also emphasizes the importance of unity among sailors and the sharing of knowledge about the ever-changing nature of the sea.
Mythology & Lore
According to the church's beliefs, Thaldrin is the eternal guardian of the seas, responsible for the balance of calm and storm. They believe that Thaldrin's trident governs the tides and currents, and their anger manifests as fierce storms that can wreak havoc on those who displease them. Sailors and fishermen offer prayers and sacrifices to Thaldrin to ensure safe voyages and bountiful catches.
