Description[]
A Ferric Deity, Aldebor is worshipped by the tribes of Muscovia. He appears as he did in life, a dark haired beardless dward in royal fineries carrying his cane and rapier.
Relationships[]
Realm[]
Aldebor makes his home in Menon, The Winter Palace. It appears as a massive and extravagant palace in the spiraling architecture of Muscovia. It is large enough to house a dwarven nation but houses only Aldebor and the few visitors he chooses to entertain or allow within.
Dogma[]
Muscovians believe that they are meant to be the sole power in the world, as such worshippers of Aldebor teach a doctrine meant to insure the strength of Muscovi people. Clerics of Aldebor often enforce the laws of Muscovi and their religious texts double as books of law.
Scriptures[]
Worshippers[]
Promises of power and revenge against those who wrong followers bring many people to the teachings of Aldebor. Dwarven tribal lines are rigid and he attracts few non dwarves so most of his worship is limited to the Muscovi Mountain Range. Religious Leadership is a tight, closely monitored network of powerful Clerics. Coups within the church infrastructure are not particularly uncommon but few are successful and those that are are rarely acknowledged to have occured.
Clergy[]
Aldebor's Clerics occupy every level of Muscovian society and keep tabs on all industry and occupation. They typically come from rich families who are able to purchase their children positions within the church, a practice that seemingly draws no ill-will from Aldebor himself.
Rituals[]
Temples[]
Temples to Aldebor are not large and do not dedicate their main space to worship. From the outside they are recognizable by the uniquely domed tops and colorful architecture compared to the simpler dwellings of Muscovi society. The inside of the temple typically includes a smaller room for worship and a larger back room for meetings of the clergy and judicial hearings. Many temples are connected to prisons or offices of important political figures.
