Faith of the Paladin
Riddick, The Blind
The Paladin soul is one pillar of a three-pillared church, under an elven god (Riddick). Riddick made the soul of the paladin, and bound it to an unborn child, to pass from one to another. Riddick forsake the elves, for reasons lost to time. Riddick slowly became less 'chatty,' more silent, and has been less and less active in the lives of mortals over the centuries. His terse, cryptic suggestions indicate that he has had to escape from some sort of extra-dimensional prison on more than one occasion.
The faith today marks many Abbeys, Churches and Small Shrines as part of its network. The Abbot running the Templar Abbey bears the name Steward. The line of stewards is largely responsible for operations, and they live for up to 200 years (they posses a desk which slows time).
Observances
Many of the observances occur at night, under new moons in near-complete darkness.
1. There is a fall holiday. Everyone wears googles. First nothing is eaten for 2 days. When the sun sets on the second day, there is an outdoor feast, lit only by torches and bonfires, and large mazes are built and traversed. 2. There is a winter holiday where meat-bearing-animals are roasted over Juniper and Cedar shrubberies. 3. There is a summer holiday on one of the hottest days of the year, where (in complete darkness) there is much drinking, singing and dancing. This is followed by a silent, lightless feast.
