The "Dead Gods" are a group of five gods in mythology who fell in battle against evil spirits, and whose sacrifice saved Adhomai from certain doom. In death, their spirits themselves were tragically corrupted by the forces of evil, causing them to be turned into Raskara's generals and champions in her fight to kill the gods and conquer Adhomai. Their names are stricken from all texts available to commoners and are believed to be known only to the highest ranking members of the cult of Adhomai in order to prevent them from being worshiped by occasional heretical sects which have come and passed throughout Tajaran history.

His physical appearance is that of a golden furred M'sai, wearing thick Nav'twir furs held together by golden clasps. In the case of his battle regalia, over these furs he wears a cuirass of iron with his feet and hands wrapped in thick leather. He wields a simple spear with an iron tip, and keeps a silver studded sword in a scabbard on his left side.

The Dead Gods

The "Dead Gods" are a group of five gods in mythology who fell in battle against evil spirits, and whose sacrifice saved Adhomai from certain doom. In death, their spirits themselves were tragically corrupted by the forces of evil, causing them to be turned into Raskara's generals and champions in her fight to kill the gods and conquer Adhomai. Their names are stricken from all texts available to commoners and are believed to be known only to the highest ranking members of the cult of Adhomai in order to prevent them from being worshiped by occasional heretical sects which have come and passed throughout Tajaran history.

Benevolent Entities

S'randarr

The very same sun which is worshiped by those of the S'randmarr faith is known as a benevolent and immortal entity in the Ma'ta'ke pantheon. S'randarr is believed to be the source of all positive energy on Adhoami, which it supplies through an incorporeal aether to the Tajara. The faithfuls assert that this positive energy mends wounds and cures illnesses for mortals, but is of greater use to the gods who can enhance their powers and wield the energy to defeat various evil spirits. Despite all these beneficial traits, the sun is not thought of as sapient, but rather as having the intelligence of an animal. In most mythological stories it requires protection and shepherding from the gods against corrupting and destructive influences.

Ambivalent Entities

Messa

The second sun in the sky which is likewise worshipped by those of the S'randmarr faith, believers in Ma'ta'ke instead merely think of it as the realm where their spirits travel to after they die. Unlike S'randmarr it is believed to be intelligent like Raskara, but neutral and occupied with ensuring spirits of dead Tajara both arrive at its domain and are sealed away for eternal rest. Spirits which fail to be claimed by Messa risk being corrupted by Raskara and added to its evil legions, which has spurred funeral rites of making solid sturdy coffins which are warded by priests with positive energy to protect dead bodies until Messa can take them. The timeless and overwhelming task of attending to the dead which Messa faces have spawned many euphemisms among Tajara relating to exhaustion, encumbrance, and large workloads.

Malevolent Entities

Raskara

Also well known as the Adhomai's moon, it is believed to be the antithesis to S'randarr and the source of all negative energy. Like S'randarr, it is immortal and supplies its energy to all Tajara through the very same aether which positive energy is supplied. Unlike S'randarr which is associated with warmth and life, Raskara is noted for cold and death as nighttime was often lethal for pre-historic Tajara. Unlike its counterpart, Raskara is thought of as being highly intelligent and the ultimate villain of most mythological stories.
