Morninglord
The Morninglord
The Morninglord is known as a warm deity of eternal optimism and hope in the face of even the darkest circumstances. He asks his flock but to extend common good will to each other and to never let hope fade away. The Morninglord is not a lawful deity; he does not trust the law of humanity to serve justice. According to the doctrine of his faithful, it is their actions or simply fate that will deliver the punishment that all evildoers will inevitably receive in the end. As usually depicted, the Morninglord is a being with elven features and bathed, or even made in, or of light. His hair is composed of fire, and his skin is gold. Blood covers his mouth, which his faithful conclude represents the presence of darkness in even the brightest of hearts and light within even the darkest of hearts. Some of his followers hold a vision that he will someday descend upon the land and rid them of all the pain and evil of the world.

Dogma:
Even the darkest night cannot last forever. Dawn approaches, and you are its herald. You are the emissary of hope, salvation, and surcease. Liberate others from their fear and teach those you cannot release to endure just a little longer. Justice comes to all evildoers eventually, not by man's laws, but by your hand and the tortuous paths of fate. Lift the spirits of the downtrodden with the good news of the Morninglord's coming. Pledge your protection to the unfortunate whenever the opportunity presents itself, and see your pledge through to the end. Destroy the foul undead wherever you find them, for they are the enemies of the dawn.
