Ys (p. is) leads the Elysid Court as the Alfather and the Supreme Deity. No one knows Ys' exact origin, many theologians claim that Ys is from a different universe. Supposedly, he arrived in this world with Uene and Ahra millions of years ago, where he constructed Elysium where their children are begotten.

Ys is often depicted as the omnipotent force of nature that simply exists without exerting his will. He is neither interested in the affair of the gods nor that of mortals. Most worshipers of Elysidism do not pray to Ys.

As a hard rule, only royalty may take Ys as their host. It is considered sacrilegious for non-royalty to take Ys as their patron. All monarchs who follow Elysidism will often have a shrine devoted to Ys in near their throne room, as they believe he protects their divine rights to rule the lands.

==Tyl==
As Ys' oldest daughter, Idna is revered as the wisest among the deities. Per his wisdom, she is tasked with recording the past and the future. While Idna is depicted as a mild-tempered maiden, her many responsibilities and domain often lead her to mental chaos. According to the lore, she is very close with Iedi, who cures her mental malady.<br><br>

Tyl is the first son of Ys and Uene. At birth, Ys assigned unto Tyl the domain of justice along with a golden compass, which would help Tyl stay true to his righteous path. As Tyl grew up, he became overdependent on the compass to guide him through life without actively making the choices himself, which allowed his half-brother, a Tora called Ansora to exploit his weakness.  
When Lheo (p. lee-oh) was born, Idna prophesized that he was to become a conquerer blessed with many victories. Following her divination, Ys assigned unto Lheo the domains of war, honor, and strength. Throughout his life, he did as she foresaw. As such, he is often taken as a host by those who live and fight on the frontline.<br><br>

As the Goddess of Commerce, Endra encompasses all trades done above and below the table. As long as there is no cheating or foulplay involved, she does not condemn ill-gotten gains. One time when she caught Ansora rigging a trade, she cut off&nbsp;his hand with her golden sword.

Iedi's (p. ee-dee) domain revolves around prosperity and wellness. She is most often taken as a host by the impoverished, who cannot afford an extravagant life and those afflicted with illness.

However, those who follow the path of light will not take any of these deities as their host.

Preface

The Elysid Court is one of the most widespread religion in Falderen and its surroundings. It is composed of two courts, the Elysid and the Tora who are at conflict with one another. The creed of this religion is only to worship the gods so they may take care of you in the afterlife when your soul is delivered to Elysium.

Usually, a small town will take one Deity as their host while bigger cities will have several temples worshiping different deities. For worshiping, there is no restriction on whom the believer prays to, different occasion may require prayer to different deities.

Ys

elysid Ys (p. is) leads the Elysid Court as the Alfather and the Supreme Deity. No one knows Ys' exact origin, many theologians claim that Ys is from a different universe. Supposedly, he arrived in this world with Uene and Ahra millions of years ago, where he constructed Elysium where their children are begotten.

Ys is often depicted as the omnipotent force of nature that simply exists without exerting his will. He is neither interested in the affair of the gods nor that of mortals. Most worshipers of Elysidism do not pray to Ys.

As a hard rule, only royalty may take Ys as their host. It is considered sacrilegious for non-royalty to take Ys as their patron. All monarchs who follow Elysidism will often have a shrine devoted to Ys in near their throne room, as they believe he protects their divine rights to rule the lands.

  • Domains: Cosmic force, monarchy, judging, and ruling.
  • Emblem: An open circle with a spread hand inside.

Uene

elysid

Uene (p. wen) is Ys' wife and the embodiment of Mother Nature herself. She is often depicted as a moody woman who may be kind one day but is detestable the next. Since, Uene and Ahra are sisters who are both married to Ys, Uene is consumed by her jealousy of Ahra and fueling her numerous attempts at killing her sister. Although she succeeded once, Ahra was able to comeback because she had hidden her heart before hand, allowing herself to reborn and continuing to plague Uene's turbulent heart.
