Novaism

Novaism is a belief originating from the Nation of Aurora Novum (where it gets its name from) its followers believe that there is only one God that created everything that we know and that he revealed himself to the one true prophet Baked_Croissant to spread the good word.

Core Beliefs
God created everything and has four main sons "He named his first son Elijah He named his second son Adam He named his third son Gabriel He named his fourth son Samael" Revelation 1:4 (a passage from the Novaism holy text). They also believe that the fourth son Samael rebelled against God as he was jealous of the Humans as God seemed to love them more. God in Novaism is the purest of all beings and is the moral standard of everything good and followers should try and act in his image.

The Rebellion in Heaven
After Samael had rebelled with his allies, he was banished from all of God's creations and so he tried to create a world of his own, he took the souls of his fellow brothers and sisters to feed himself power so he could create "Hell" (or as its popularly known as the "Nether") this is the reason it is so imperfect and plagued with fire and death, he is nothing compared to God and so he could not create something as good as God, For this reason, Samael hates humans and what they have made and only wishes to destroy and corrupt it, he does this by taking on multiple forms and pretending to be other Gods to get worshipers so one day he can overpower God so this tells us that all over religions are just the product of Samaels corruption and should not be followed.

Rituals
Believers in the God of Aurora Novum perform many rituals to gain the support of their all mighty God some examples are.

Rituals for good fortune: in the pursuit of good fortune the followers of Novaism perform a ritual which involves sacrificing a cow to the God of Aurora Novum by slaying it then burning its meat over a blue flame.

Rituals for turning the tide of war: when the followers of the God of Aurora Novum are in a state of war they perform a ritual to gain a blessing for their soldiers. The ritual includes a sword of any kind and a sacrifice of any animal. first, slay the animal with the sword of your choice and make sure to burn all of its remains in a red fire then all the followers partaking in the ritual must say a prayer to the one true God asking Him to bless them in the war after the prayer has finished the sword that was used to kill the animal must be burnt and this will solidify the prayer. The flame that was used to conduct this ritual mustn't be extinguished until the battle (or war) is over as that flame is now a blessed bonfire and is what is keeping the blessing going.
