A new dynasty takes hold in Corlace while old dangers, some older than memory, threaten to destroy the kingdom. Evil creeps over every horizon on Lucadere. Who can stand against it?

The deities
Name: Noreal
Alignment: Neutral Good
Direction: North
Symbol: The white aurora borealis against a night sky
Weapon: Scimitar
Domains: Fire, Glory, Good, Healing, Protection
Noreal is the cold flame of the north. Her pristine beauty is worshiped by elves on their icy shores and all who help those in need. She is a fire to ward against the cold and a beacon to guide the traveler home.
Name: Prokeles
Alignment: Lawful Good
Direction: Northeast
Symbol: A stone wall with a barred gate set in it.
Weapon: Longsword
Domains: Community, Good, Law, Nobility, Protection
Prokeles is a stern father who protects his many children from the horrors of the wilderness. He is the wall builder, the crafter of kingdoms, the patron of patrons.
Name: Aurex
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Direction: East
Symbol: The rising sun
Weapon: Unarmed strike
Domains: Earth, Law, Rune, Strength, Sun
Aurex is discipline. Aurex is as certain as the rising of the sun. Aurex's face is set and carved in stone, weathering all. Aurex advises those who would set a rule in stone and call it Law.
Name: Infersol
Alignment: Lawful Evil
Direction: Southeast
Symbol: A stylized jar with a black marble inside it and a white marble suspended above it
Weapon: Mace
Domains: Destruction, Evil, Law, Strength, War
Infersol is the scourge of the nobility, a warlord raised from poverty who hates the hypocrisy of the old ways. He came from the mob and seeks to harness its power, direct its anger. He is the embodiment of revolution and wants to destroy the powerful while the powerless in his eyes have two choices: join or die.
Name: Meriph
Alignment: Neutral Evil
Direction: South
Symbol: A hooded cloak or a dagger crossed with its sheath
Weapon: Scythe
Domains: Darkness, Death, Evil, Knowledge, Trickery
Meriph is death waiting in the darkness. He is admired (and sometimes worshiped) by thieves and assassins. Meriph's face is never seen. He lures the unfortunate to the shadows and harvests their terror.
Name: Noxtergo
Alignment: Chaotic Evil
Direction: Southwest
Symbol: An upside down boat or a broken mast
Weapon: Greataxe
Domains: Chaos, Evil, Madness, Water, Weather
The gargled scream that is the last breath of the drowning is music to Noxtergo. He finds physical form in the beasts of the turbulent sea. He twists the thoughts of the mad and his floods can wash away any feeble scrap of order.
Name: Occhidy
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Direction: West
Symbol: The wind or clouds, storm clouds with lightning, a tornado
Weapon: Whip
Domains: Air, Chaos, Charm, Liberation, Luck
Occhidy is depicted as a tall, strangely slender woman dressed in delicate wispy garments usually in a full sprint with her hair streaming out behind her. Her attentions are fickle and she never stays in one place, or with one person, for long. She said to be betrothed to Epicusp but by her nature is forever fleeing commitment and stability.
Name: Epicusp
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Direction: Northwest
Symbol: A peaceful road through a forest, an evergreen branch
Weapon: Rapier
Domains: Animal, Chaos, Good, Plant, Travel
Epicusp is a cheerful halfling wanderer. He is forever traveling the roads, happily searching for his runaway bride-to-be. He knows he'll never catch her but is happy to catch glimpses of her here and there. Afterall, he gets to be in the great outdoors and hear her running through the trees, and see her ruffling the fur of all the beasts of the wild.
Name: Promni
Alignment: True Neutral
Direction: Up
Symbol: An eyepatch, a half-worn blindfold, or one eye open and one eye closed/missing
Weapon: Quarterstaff
Domains: Artifice, Knowledge, Magic, Repose, Trickery
Promni is an elderly one-eyed man. He wears a long cloth wrapped around his head covering his missing eye and leans heavily on his staff. He knows too much and is too old to be persuaded by any of the fleeting extremes of his fellow gods. He longs only to be reunited with his missing eye before he dies.
