Pantheon
The Pantheon is the collective name for all the major and minor deities currently recognized on Vaerith. The Pantheon is divided into two trees, the Altar and the Shrine. The Altar consists of nine major deities (known as Creators) honoring the paths humans travel. The Shrine is composed of seven lesser deities (known as Keepers) honoring the tools humans use to navigate those paths. Each deity represents a specific aspect of or influence on a human's journey during their lifetime.
Approximately half of the population engages in a form of religious observance. The most organized and oldest religion is that surrounding Vaerith. Followers of any tradition may congregate with others in formal settings or may pay respects through private rituals and observances. It is most common for people to refer to or ask favors from multiple deities.
Each religious following or adherent defines its own relationship with the Pantheon, including gender. These terms also differ by region. The number of followers is difficult to determine due to constantly shifting immigration/emigration patterns and various legislative efforts.
Art (in-story) created around the Pantheon ranges from the written word to sculpture to paintings to song. Depictions can be anthropomorphic or abstract, impressionistic or classical, symbolic or realistic, and anything in-between. Popular items available for purchase include cards (much like playing cards) for people to pray to (similar to rosaries, prayer cylinders, or saints' medallions), clothing, and jewelry.
