Hydraic Gods

Followers of the Hydraic Gods are people of Wisdom and Understanding. They believe that four Emperors govern this realm, Galor Clacialis, Terranis Arer, Solom Runum, Caelium Inamous. The Emperors of Fire & Ice, Earth & Air, Sun & Moon, Sky & Void, respectively. They wish no harm upon others of any opinion, and simply want a world of peace, and truth.

Beliefs
Followers of the Hydraic Gods believe that the Emperors are one in the same, two twin heads of differing aspects. These Emperors are opposites of themselves, this makes them seem erratic and insane despite being powerful and crafty beings, this seeming lunacy makes it difficult for them to impact the mortal realms, not due to lack of trying. Every few hundred years followers are born with a small part of the soul of one of the four lords, and act as mortal versions of the emperors. These avatars for the Emperor's souls are meant to rule four equal parts of the realm they manifest on. But in their Lunacy, the Emperors spawned other religions. It is the duty of the Avatars, those people with the soul fragments of the emperors to correct the mistake that the emperors made and reunite the world under the Hydraic Gods.

Key Figures
The Dragon

The true power of all realms, the creator of the Emperors, the Realms, and Life. They are not venerated like the Emperors are, for they do not hold much power over our individual realm. Instead, they hold power of the gods of all of the realms, and Followers of the Hydraic Gods recognize that in other realms there are different gods.

The Emperors

The Emperors were once eight separate beings, using their avatars to try to gain power, each always trying and failing to rule their realms. This angered The Dragon and as punishment, they were paired with their most hated rival, one body and two souls. This quieted down the constant war, because the avatars shared bits of both souls making it hard to agree on a plan to conquer. This action caused an unsteady peace that has lasted between followers of the Hydraic Gods. But because of this, the Avatars are not united with a sole purpose, so the different Emperors often vie for control of the Avatar, leaving the actual Avatar out of it. Opposed to the time of eight empires, when Avatars were themselves, and not dominated by the Emperors.

The Spirit’s of the Soul

Each Emperor has its own spirit “right hand”, these messengers of the gods deliver gifts, messages, help to those the emperors deem necessary. But after the time of eight empires the spirits have acted in the best interest of the Emperors, because the messengers were not fused when the Emperors were. This is a list of each Emperor's messenger, Galor’s Fire Serpent, Clacialis’s, Ice Turtle, Terranis’s, Worm, Arer’s, Hawk, Solom’s Lion, Runum’s Wolf, Caelium’s Thunder Owl, Inamous’s Bat. These "right hands", do things for the Emperors they act as messengers, and guides to new avatars.

The First Avatars

After the time of eight empires, he current avatars were also magically combined, which instantly killed them. After the new avatars had been chosen and born they agreed on peace, these were their names titles and what they were known for.

Kali The Avatar of Fire & Ice. She was known as the Kali the cold, known for being heavily preferring Clacialis and was a advocate for revenge being served cold.

Wvill The Avatar of Earth & Air. He was called Wvill the Unknowable. Known for being quick to act and impulsive action.

Quilu The First Avatar of Sun & Moon. Called the Terror of the knight. He was known for being a deadly enemy to those who crossed him, using knights to hunt down escaped criminals

Arivus The First Avatar of Sky & Void. Coined Voidling, she rarely acknowledged Caelium's impulses and acted like the daughter of the void.

Current Avatars
The Current avatars are unfound, the search continues.

Frequently Used Terms
The Time of Eight Empires: The time of Eight Empires was the time before the fusion, and before the emperors gained their seeming lunacy.

The Fusion: The Fusion is when The Dragon fused the Emperors and their avatars into one body and two souls. During this event there was a period of chaos and uncertainty, because, being mortals, their bodies were unable to handle the power of two souls in a single body, killing all of the active avatars.

Current Situation
Currently, only two Avatars are known to exist and have agreed to work together to try to communicate with the emperors and find out what they need to do.
