The Sacrificed

The Sacrificed is a monotheistic religion based off the teachings of Derrin of Suuz. Executed in Vozelsk in 2680SS as a beggar, Derrin returned to life fifteen days later, witnessed by armed Regedai guards. Claiming that he 'saw the face of god, and it didn't reside in Pantheara', Derrin began to openly worship 'The Sacrificed', a god that Derrin claims is the creator of magic and all the realms. Since his return, he has gained a small following in Lusenya, estimated at around 2,000.

Core beliefs of 'The Sacrificed' Religion

 * The Sacrificed is the ultimate god of everything, the only immortal creature in the universe.
 * The Sacrificed controls everything, and harnesses power over life and death.
 * The Sacrificed can change the universe on a whim.
 * There are not just five realms of magic, and hidden in the void are more realms, possibly created by beings as powerful as Fandarin.
 * The Ancient Ones are beings that are native to the void, but they are no more powerful than Fandarin, and are not immortal.
 * The universe is only destined to end when The Sacrificed chooses to end it.

Differences between The Sacrificed and The Pentastus

 * While Derrin of Suuz admits that he believes Fandarin created Ortheid and formed the Pentasta, he claims that Fandarin was not a god, rather a powerful being able to manipulate magic to his whim.
 * He believes the Ancient Ones are also not destined to consume Ortheid, rather their hunger for magic creates an struggle that can be won.
