Korath
Korath was a major god in the Thauzunian Orthodoxy, associated with discipline, restraint, and the enforcement of order through controlled behavior rather than force alone. In pre-Fall belief, Korath did not represent punishment, authority, or law itself, but the internal regulation that made those systems function. His domain was self-control: the ability to follow command, adhere to procedure, and act within established limits even under pressure.
Orthodox doctrine treated discipline as a foundational requirement of civilization, and Korath embodied that requirement. Soldiers, judges, and enforcers were believed to operate properly only insofar as they reflected his influence. Obedience was not blind loyalty, but trained compliance; restraint was valued above aggression. A failure of discipline—panic, excess, cruelty, or deviation from role—was considered a breakdown of Korath’s order rather than a moral failing. He represented the idea that power without control was instability.
Korath was closely tied to routine, training, and repetition. His influence was expressed through drills, formal conduct, uniformity, and procedural consistency. Pre-Fall teachings emphasized that discipline was not innate and could not be improvised; it had to be learned, reinforced, and maintained. Korath was not invoked in moments of crisis, but in preparation for them. He was understood as present in systems that functioned smoothly and absent where chaos emerged.
No knowledge of Korath survives into the post-Fall era. There are no remaining references to his name, symbols, rituals, or institutional roles in modern Vey’Zari society. The Thauzunian Orthodoxy itself is entirely unknown, and with its collapse, all structured understanding of Korath vanished. He does not appear in contemporary military doctrine, legal culture, religious belief, or reconstructed mythology.
As a result, Korath is not remembered, worshiped, or reinterpreted in any form. There are no surviving cults, degraded traditions, or symbolic continuities associated with him. To modern Vey’Zari, Korath is not a forgotten god but an entirely unknown one, his existence accessible only through speculative reconstruction of pre-Fall religious structure rather than through any living memory or cultural awareness.
