>Religion's Name: Tezcatlipocan, Church of the Flayed God

>Major Deity's name: Xipe Xotec, the Flayed One

>Major Deity's description: Xipe Totec, Tlatlauqhi, the Smoking Mirror, takes the form of a man whose skin has been flayed and bloodied. In the places where it is not dripping red with ichor, his skin is a glowing golden hue. He wields an obsidian spear, and wears elaborate robes and headdress.

>He is considered god of agriculture and rebirth, but also of gold and wealth. However, the duality of his religion means that he represents death as much as life, and disease as much as growth. Worshipers pray for good harvests for themselves, and dire plagues on their enemies. The Flayed One provides both in kind.

>Fluff: Long quelled since the Catholic occupation of Mexico and Latin America, the cults of the old gods festered in silence among stalwart faithful. Huitzilopotchli, the Sun, was popular in the southwest. Quetzacoatl, the Wind Serpent, rose in the North. But in the west, the Flayed God burned strongest in vengeance. Against the Christians, the occupiers, against even other cults. They were led by a prophet - Metzacoli, the Corn-Knife - and around him the waves of extremism rose to a great tide. Now, the sanguine tide of the Flayed One washes over the lands of the Mexica, and soon it shall engulf all the world.

>Starting Location/Principle Holy Land: Yucatan Peninsula, centered on Tikal

>Dogma: The priests of Xipe Totec must give a weekly sacrifice to him, extracting the heart in order to empower his reign. They must then flay the skin, and wear it as one would a robe for a twenty days. After the twentieth dawn, they remove the flayed skin in a symbolic display of rebirth and new life. Touching such flayed skin is believed to give protection from plague and ailments as well.

>Each year at the beginning of spring, a festival is held to honor the Smoking Mirror. Many sacrifices are had, and warriors dressed in the flayed skins hold mock skirmishes to show their skill and devotion. Goldsmiths also hold a feast to the god in the hopes of increasing their own wealth.

We shall show the newly conquered that the Church of the Flayed God is more than just violence and bloodshed. We are growth. We are wealth, we are abundance. And we welcome new worshipers with open arms.

>Religion's Name: The Builder's of Babel

>Major Deity's name: "The Babel Singularity"

>Major Deity's description:

"The Babel Singularity" is not a god in the traditional sense. Rather, it is the concept of an entirely unified mankind in body, mind, and soul, via the Human Singularity Project. A unified hivemind from the collective consciousness of humanity, capable of not only the total unification of mankind but also intense psionic power imagined. A god out of man, and out of man a god.

>Fluff: A few decades prior to the Great Atheist Lie, a group of the world elite found a hidden chamber from a forgotten civilization, and its existence so far underground too, would have caused a major stir.

They found ancient monoliths, great black pillars constructed of unfathomable technology, which spoke to them, telling them the great secret of the gods.

The gods did not create man. . .but man created the gods. Through their belief in them they made them real, gave them power via their belief, attributing events and phenomena to them.

The pillars stated that long ago, a great civilization realized this, and came upon the ability to "cut out the middle man" by channeling mankind's belief into himself. In each soul of man is a fragment capable of creating a god through sheer belief, and by unifying his soul via technology, one may be created it. Thus man could use the power he creates, rather than giving it to some diety to hold.

Enlightened by this rapture, these wealthy elite formed "Prometheus", a secret organization bent on creating this 'god out of man'. This is called the "Human Singularity Project"

To achieve this, they must create a massive device capable of transmitting the thoughts of man telepathically, the so called "Tower of Babel", a massive structure capable of transmitting a telepathic signal across the planet. The removal of all barriers of language and distance, allowing for synchronization and harmony and ultimate democracy of thought itself to occur. Out of a billions one, and out of one billions.

Thanks to the financial contributions of the members "Prometheus", The Builders of Babel are highly organized religion that emphasizes productivity, efficiency, and true unity of the industry and will of man. For this reason and thanks to some political maneuvering on Prometheus part, it is a high popular faith to some governments for the promotion of productivity, but at the same time viewed with suspicion.

Indeed, the primary method of 'worshiping' the Singularity is the creation of vast monuments to humanity such what was capable of the true people of Babel before God befuddled their language. Lo, is it not written that “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them."

Most of all, the Builder's of Babylon popular faith for those scientists of the world, who rather than be shunned are embraced. The Singularity of Man calls on brilliant and enlightened minds to not only contribute their intellects, but imbibe and share it with the others. It forms a reconciliation of their previous atheistic belief, for while they were wrong that there were no gods, it was ultimately a manifestation of the subconscious desire for mankind to take his back the power that is himself.

>Religion's Name: Tezcatlipocan, Church of the Flayed God

>Major Deity's name: Xipe Xotec, the Flayed One

>Major Deity's description: Xipe Totec, Tlatlauqhi, the Smoking Mirror, takes the form of a man whose skin has been flayed and bloodied. In the places where it is not dripping red with ichor, his skin is a glowing golden hue. He wields an obsidian spear, and wears elaborate robes and headdress.

>He is considered god of agriculture and rebirth, but also of gold and wealth. However, the duality of his religion means that he represents death as much as life, and disease as much as growth. Worshipers pray for good harvests for themselves, and dire plagues on their enemies. The Flayed One provides both in kind.

>Fluff: Long quelled since the Catholic occupation of Mexico and Latin America, the cults of the old gods festered in silence among stalwart faithful. Huitzilopotchli, the Sun, was popular in the southwest. Quetzacoatl, the Wind Serpent, rose in the North. But in the west, the Flayed God burned strongest in vengeance. Against the Christians, the occupiers, against even other cults. They were led by a prophet - Metzacoli, the Corn-Knife - and around him the waves of extremism rose to a great tide. Now, the sanguine tide of the Flayed One washes over the lands of the Mexica, and soon it shall engulf all the world.

>Starting Location/Principle Holy Land: Yucatan Peninsula, centered on Tikal

>Dogma: The priests of Xipe Totec must give a weekly sacrifice to him, extracting the heart in order to empower his reign. They must then flay the skin, and wear it as one would a robe for a twenty days. After the twentieth dawn, they remove the flayed skin in a symbolic display of rebirth and new life. Touching such flayed skin is believed to give protection from plague and ailments as well.

>Each year at the beginning of spring, a festival is held to honor the Smoking Mirror. Many sacrifices are had, and warriors dressed in the flayed skins hold mock skirmishes to show their skill and devotion. Goldsmiths also hold a feast to the god in the hopes of increasing their own wealth.

Those who refuse to convert shall know Tlatlauqhi's wrath through his illnesses.

>Religion's Name: The Builder's of Babel

>Major Deity's name: "The Babel Singularity"

>Major Deity's description:

"The Babel Singularity" is not a god in the traditional sense. Rather, it is the concept of an entirely unified mankind in body, mind, and soul, via the Human Singularity Project. A unified hivemind from the collective consciousness of humanity, capable of not only the total unification of mankind but also intense psionic power imagined. A god out of man, and out of man a god.

>Fluff: A few decades prior to the Great Atheist Lie, a group of the world elite found a hidden chamber from a forgotten civilization, and its existence so far underground too, would have caused a major stir.

They found ancient monoliths, great black pillars constructed of unfathomable technology, which spoke to them, telling them the great secret of the gods.

The gods did not create man. . .but man created the gods. Through their belief in them they made them real, gave them power via their belief, attributing events and phenomena to them.

The pillars stated that long ago, a great civilization realized this, and came upon the ability to "cut out the middle man" by channeling mankind's belief into himself. In each soul of man is a fragment capable of creating a god through sheer belief, and by unifying his soul via technology, one may be created it. Thus man could use the power he creates, rather than giving it to some diety to hold.

Enlightened by this rapture, these wealthy elite formed "Prometheus", a secret organization bent on creating this 'god out of man'. This is called the "Human Singularity Project"

To achieve this, they must create a massive device capable of transmitting the thoughts of man telepathically, the so called "Tower of Babel", a massive structure capable of transmitting a telepathic signal across the planet. The removal of all barriers of language and distance, allowing for synchronization and harmony and ultimate democracy of thought itself to occur. Out of a billions one, and out of one billions.

Thanks to the financial contributions of the members "Prometheus", The Builders of Babel are highly organized religion that emphasizes productivity, efficiency, and true unity of the industry and will of man. For this reason and thanks to some political maneuvering on Prometheus part, it is a high popular faith to some governments for the promotion of productivity, but at the same time viewed with suspicion.

Indeed, the primary method of 'worshiping' the Singularity is the creation of vast monuments to humanity such what was capable of the true people of Babel before God befuddled their language. Lo, is it not written that “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them."

Most of all, the Builder's of Babylon popular faith for those scientists of the world, who rather than be shunned are embraced. The Singularity of Man calls on brilliant and enlightened minds to not only contribute their intellects, but imbibe and share it with the others. It forms a reconciliation of their previous atheistic belief, for while they were wrong that there were no gods, it was ultimately a manifestation of the subconscious desire for mankind to take his back the power that is himself.

>Religion's Name: The Builder's of Babel

>Major Deity's name: "The Babel Singularity"

>Major Deity's description:

"The Babel Singularity" is not a god in the traditional sense. Rather, it is the concept of an entirely unified mankind in body, mind, and soul, via the Human Singularity Project. A unified hivemind from the collective consciousness of humanity, capable of not only the total unification of mankind but also intense psionic power imagined. A god out of man, and out of man a god.

>Fluff: A few decades prior to the Great Atheist Lie, a group of the world elite found a hidden chamber from a forgotten civilization, and its existence so far underground too, would have caused a major stir.

They found ancient monoliths, great black pillars constructed of unfathomable technology, which spoke to them, telling them the great secret of the gods.

The gods did not create man. . .but man created the gods. Through their belief in them they made them real, gave them power via their belief, attributing events and phenomena to them.

The pillars stated that long ago, a great civilization realized this, and came upon the ability to "cut out the middle man" by channeling mankind's belief into himself. In each soul of man is a fragment capable of creating a god through sheer belief, and by unifying his soul via technology, one may be created it. Thus man could use the power he creates, rather than giving it to some diety to hold.

Enlightened by this rapture, these wealthy elite formed "Prometheus", a secret organization bent on creating this 'god out of man'. This is called the "Human Singularity Project"

To achieve this, they must create a massive device capable of transmitting the thoughts of man telepathically, the so called "Tower of Babel", a massive structure capable of transmitting a telepathic signal across the planet. The removal of all barriers of language and distance, allowing for synchronization and harmony and ultimate democracy of thought itself to occur. Out of a billions one, and out of one billions.

Thanks to the financial contributions of the members "Prometheus", The Builders of Babel are highly organized religion that emphasizes productivity, efficiency, and true unity of the industry and will of man. For this reason and thanks to some political maneuvering on Prometheus part, it is a high popular faith to some governments for the promotion of productivity, but at the same time viewed with suspicion.

Indeed, the primary method of 'worshiping' the Singularity is the creation of vast monuments to humanity such what was capable of the true people of Babel before God befuddled their language. Lo, is it not written that “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them."

Most of all, the Builder's of Babylon popular faith for those scientists of the world, who rather than be shunned are embraced. The Singularity of Man calls on brilliant and enlightened minds to not only contribute their intellects, but imbibe and share it with the others. It forms a reconciliation of their previous atheistic belief, for while they were wrong that there were no gods, it was ultimately a manifestation of the subconscious desire for mankind to take his back the power that is himself.

>Religion's Name: Tezcatlipocan, Church of the Flayed God

>Major Deity's description: Xipe Totec, Tlatlauqhi, the Smoking Mirror, takes the form of a man whose skin has been flayed and bloodied. In the places where it is not dripping red with ichor, his skin is a glowing golden hue. He wields an obsidian spear, and wears elaborate robes and headdress.

>He is considered god of agriculture and rebirth, but also of gold and wealth. However, the duality of his religion means that he represents death as much as life, and disease as much as growth. Worshipers pray for good harvests for themselves, and dire plagues on their enemies. The Flayed One provides both in kind.

>Fluff: Long quelled since the Catholic occupation of Mexico and Latin America, the cults of the old gods festered in silence among stalwart faithful. Huitzilopotchli, the Sun, was popular in the southwest. Quetzacoatl, the Wind Serpent, rose in the North. But in the west, the Flayed God burned strongest in vengeance. Against the Christians, the occupiers, against even other cults. They were led by a prophet - Metzacoli, the Corn-Knife - and around him the waves of extremism rose to a great tide. Now, the sanguine tide of the Flayed One washes over the lands of the Mexica, and soon it shall engulf all the world.

>Starting Location/Principle Holy Land: Yucatan Peninsula, centered on Tikal

>Dogma: The priests of Xipe Totec must give a weekly sacrifice to him, extracting the heart in order to empower his reign. They must then flay the skin, and wear it as one would a robe for a twenty days. After the twentieth dawn, they remove the flayed skin in a symbolic display of rebirth and new life. Touching such flayed skin is believed to give protection from plague and ailments as well.

>Each year at the beginning of spring, a festival is held to honor the Smoking Mirror. Many sacrifices are had, and warriors dressed in the flayed skins hold mock skirmishes to show their skill and devotion. Goldsmiths also hold a feast to the god in the hopes of increasing their own wealth.

>Religion's Name: The Builder's of Babel

>Major Deity's name: "The Babel Singularity"

>Major Deity's description:

"The Babel Singularity" is not a god in the traditional sense. Rather, it is the concept of an entirely unified mankind in body, mind, and soul, via the Human Singularity Project. A unified hivemind from the collective consciousness of humanity, capable of not only the total unification of mankind but also intense psionic power imagined. A god out of man, and out of man a god.

>Fluff: A few decades prior to the Great Atheist Lie, a group of the world elite found a hidden chamber from a forgotten civilization, and its existence so far underground too, would have caused a major stir.

They found ancient monoliths, great black pillars constructed of unfathomable technology, which spoke to them, telling them the great secret of the gods.

The gods did not create man. . .but man created the gods. Through their belief in them they made them real, gave them power via their belief, attributing events and phenomena to them.

The pillars stated that long ago, a great civilization realized this, and came upon the ability to "cut out the middle man" by channeling mankind's belief into himself. In each soul of man is a fragment capable of creating a god through sheer belief, and by unifying his soul via technology, one may be created it. Thus man could use the power he creates, rather than giving it to some diety to hold.

Enlightened by this rapture, these wealthy elite formed "Prometheus", a secret organization bent on creating this 'god out of man'. This is called the "Human Singularity Project"

To achieve this, they must create a massive device capable of transmitting the thoughts of man telepathically, the so called "Tower of Babel", a massive structure capable of transmitting a telepathic signal across the planet. The removal of all barriers of language and distance, allowing for synchronization and harmony and ultimate democracy of thought itself to occur. Out of a billions one, and out of one billions.

Thanks to the financial contributions of the members "Prometheus", The Builders of Babel are highly organized religion that emphasizes productivity, efficiency, and true unity of the industry and will of man. For this reason and thanks to some political maneuvering on Prometheus part, it is a high popular faith to some governments for the promotion of productivity, but at the same time viewed with suspicion.

Indeed, the primary method of 'worshiping' the Singularity is the creation of vast monuments to humanity such what was capable of the true people of Babel before God befuddled their language. Lo, is it not written that “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them."

Most of all, the Builder's of Babylon popular faith for those scientists of the world, who rather than be shunned are embraced. The Singularity of Man calls on brilliant and enlightened minds to not only contribute their intellects, but imbibe and share it with the others. It forms a reconciliation of their previous atheistic belief, for while they were wrong that there were no gods, it was ultimately a manifestation of the subconscious desire for mankind to take his back the power that is himself.

>Fluff: Long quelled since the Catholic occupation of Mexico and Latin America, the cults of the old gods festered in silence among stalwart faithful.

The Singularity of Man calls on brilliant and enlightened minds to not only contribute their intellects, but imbibe and share it with the others.

>He is considered god of agriculture and rebirth, but also of gold and wealth. However, the duality of his religion means that he represents death as much as life, and disease as much as growth. Worshipers pray for good harvests for themselves, and dire plagues on their enemies. The Flayed One provides both in kind.

>Fluff: Long quelled since the Catholic occupation of Mexico and Latin America, the cults of the old gods festered in silence among stalwart faithful. Huitzilopotchli, the Sun, was popular in the southwest. Quetzacoatl, the Wind Serpent, rose in the North. But in the west, the Flayed God burned strongest in vengeance. Against the Christians, the occupiers, against even other cults. They were led by a prophet - Metzacoli, the Corn-Knife - and around him the waves of extremism rose to a great tide. Now, the sanguine tide of the Flayed One washes over the lands of the Mexica, and soon it shall engulf all the world.

>Starting Location/Principle Holy Land: Yucatan Peninsula, centered on Tikal

>Dogma: The priests of Xipe Totec must give a weekly sacrifice to him, extracting the heart in order to empower his reign. They must then flay the skin, and wear it as one would a robe for a twenty days. After the twentieth dawn, they remove the flayed skin in a symbolic display of rebirth and new life. Touching such flayed skin is believed to give protection from plague and ailments as well.

>Religion's Name: Unwavering Disciples of the Tenfold Sun

>Major Deity's name: The Faithless or The Tenfold Sun

>Major Deity's description: A malign entity from far beyond the stars, leftover from the tumultuous creation of the universe. The Faithless is corruption, greed, moral decay and ruthless self-reliance incarnate.

>Fluff: The Unwavering Disciples are one of several Faithless cults scattered among the stars, and it cloaks itself in the guise of political activism and nationalist reform. The United Kingdoms branch is the only branch that has survived thus far, and it has taken firm root there among both the downtrodden and the political elite.

>Starting Location/Principle Holy Land: United Kingdoms

>Dogma: End the religious delusion that causes wars amongst humanity. Purge society of the weak and the wretched so that it may advance as a whole. Stop the destructive agendas of other powers. Prepare the Earth for its final fate at the hands of the Tenfold Sun– the Faithless.

>Followers: 500

>Bonus: Strong Followers - Your followers are all strong enough to hold your own in a fight. Combat should be easy for you.

>Detraction: Amoral - Your people are crass. This may turn some potential followers off.
