Faiths of Kerebra

There are three religious traditions in the land of Kerebra.

Pisteis is the primary belief system, a philosophy centred around contentment with ones life, detachment from physical and emotional connections, and pacifism.The Pisteic monks teach that all beings in Kerebra are connected through the Worldmind, and that the Worldmind is the shared psionic energy field subconsciously manifested by all living minds, intelligent and animal alike. Since all people are one with the world, hurting others is hurting oneself. Likewise, all desire towards the physical world and other individuals brings only sadness; the physical is transient, and the pain of losing a connection to death and destruction spreads to everyone through the Worldmind. To be happy, content and detached is to spread contentment and happiness to everyone, and healing the world.To the Pisteics, the Rot exists because people are too attached to the world. Their unhappiness and greed has infected the world and the people with Rot, and only through abandoning material things and embrace contentment and detachment can the Rot be overcome.Pisteis is the most common religion in Kerbra.

Enkéfalos is the competing religion to Pisteis. The monks of the Enkéfali believe that the Worldmind is not a product of all the minds of Kerebra, as' the Faithful believe, but rather a huge ocean within which all living minds are born. The Enkéfali revere the Worldmind not as a diety, but as a force of nature which births all minds, and from which psionic power flows. The Worldmind, according to the Enkéfali, is a tremendous source of power within the world of Kerebra, and every mind in Kerebra spontaneously forms from this power. To the Enkéfali monks, the Rot is a taint within the Worldmind from an unknown source, and many monks dedicate their loves to searching for this source. 

Enkéfalos is a popular faith among the Purple Knights

Soma is the third major religion in Kerebra, and the youngest by far.

Soma teaches that each individual is a holy being, born to psionic power. Power is our birthright, the Somatics say, and the Worldmind is our legacy. Within the vast oceans of the Worldmind lies the knowledge and experience of the ancestors, ripe for the picking, the rightful property of all Kerbrans with the power to seize it. Every individual has an inborn right to this divine legacy, but not everyone is born with the power to seize it.To the Somatics, the Worldmind is a power to be wielded, studied and understood.Somatic monks teach that the Rot is an infestation of tainted power from deep within the Worldmind, and many Somatic Dreamdivers plumb it's depths to look for an answer.Soma is a popular religion with the Executores Justitia.
