Primus (Pry-muss)

The Shining One

Primus, deity of the sun, the shining one, has appeared before mankind as a mighty being in gleaming, golden plate mail armor. His true face cannot be seen as it is hidden by the brilliance of the sun-like shining aura that radiates a blinding light where his head should be. Primus is the creator of many good things, a supporter of those in need, and an adversary of all that is evil. He is one of the Four Pillars of Creation, father of many of the other gods, and is considered to be the patriarch of The Twelve. Primus is also credited with the creation of the humans.

Primus makes his home on the sun, Helios. There he lives with his beloved, Prospera.

Primus’s clerics favor white garb with golden trim. They are usually kindly people with backbones of steel. They are primarily nurturers and protectors, but when the time comes to bear arms they are not afraid to do so. They use their powers to heal, nourish, and otherwise aid the needy, while practicing the skills needed to protect their charges should they be threatened. Many clerics of Primus leave their pastoral duties and go to explore far lands in an effort to drive off harmful beings and spread their deity’s gifts to all who need them.

Divine Goals & Aspirations

Though widely revered as a peaceful and gentle deity who alleviates suffering, Primus also has more martial aspects. He brings his wrath to bear on darkness and evil, and he invigorates and heals those who champion the cause of good. Primus teaches that the energy of life originates from the sun.   This light brings strength to the weak and health to the injured, while destroying darkness and evil. He urges his followers to challenge the forces of corruption aggressively, but also to remember that just as staring at the sun can cause blindness of the eyes, relentless attention to the destruction of negative forces can blind the heart to the true essentials of life: kindness, mercy, and compassion.
