Fergeskanism

Fergeskanism is a subform of Soleviel, where its believers' faith is focused on the forces which brought the Original Fergsk People of Fergusheim out of their dimension, sending them to land in the Simulami Empire, this land becoming the town of Fergusheim.

History
Following the transportation of the Fergsk people into the Simulami Empire in Eldham, the three "founders", IrishAkita, NugHero, and Thysteelboy traveled between the Simulami province of Munio and the Simulami island of Stormgova, eventually returning to the land they were originally transported to. These founders then build a hut and a small mine, and named the hamlet after their homeland and their god, Fergusheim. After digging through old maps and books, IrishAkita soon learned of the Simulami Empire in which Fergusheim resided. IrishAkita spent some time learning the politics and geography of Eldham, and soon after reached out to the Simulami Empire to gain citizenship, and moved into a building in Myrkira. After becoming a citizen of the Simulami Empire, IrishAkita registered Fergusheim as a town of Simulami.

Jarl Fergusheim
Jarl Fergusheim is one of the two chief deities from Old Fergusheim, being the deity representing the earth, nature, and protection. Jarl Fergusheim is typically represented by a medium sized black dog, which has blue deer antlers above her head.

Taps
Taps is the second chief deity of Old Fergusheim, representing time, air, and magic. Taps is represented in Fergsk art as a large cat similar to that of an American Shorthair, although he is depicted with green eyes, and having green clocks for irises.

Lulávir
Lulávir is the Fergeskanist god of day (not to be confused with Solaris), and is Jarl Fergusheim's top Lieutenant. Lulávir is shown in Liturgical depictions as a glowing golden dog or wolf, typically holding or pulling the sun.

Dǿna
Dǿna is the pupil of Lulávir, and is represented in a similar fashion. She is often represented as a yellow dog or wolf, and is usually depicted upon beaches or near shorelines. Dǿna protects travelers and fishermen at sea, and brings sunlight to areas usually cast in a dark shade.

Mýsketta
Mýsketta is the representation of night in Fergeskanism (not to be confused with Sylene), and responds directly to Taps. Mýsketta is typically shown as a black cat with glowing purple eyes and a coat with patterns of the aurora borealis, and is usually depicted within or above the moon, blending in with the night sky.

Mýtçjøy
Mýtçjøy is a lower deity serving Mýsketta, being similar in form and holding similar responsibilities. She is often depicted as a black cat with chestnut eyes and an orange-golden pattern upon her coat. Mýtçjøy holds the responsibilities of community and the hearth, and those who follow her are said to be protected on the road through night and day.

Høyj & Smá Sǿnnleika:
The Sǿnnleika are a set of rules, based of Soleviel's Postulates, designed to guide the life and avoid sins, used most heavily in the church and modern Soleviel and Fergeskanist interpretations.

Høyj:
To worship gods not supported by The Church is blasphemous, for Solaris, The All-Father, and his Cohort, reign above all else. Saints and ancestors alike shall be revered, for they are also a part of his Cohort. To kill another is to deny Solaris's gift of life, and so shall be considered not only a sin, but also a highest blasphemy. To steal from another and to lie to another is to improperly use Solaris's gift of life, and so shall be considered a sin. To muddle or degrade one's mind, be it enmity, excessive drinking or harlotry, is to sway from the All-Father's path, and so shall be considered a sin. To treat another is akin to treating yourself, treat others with respect unless they have lost this right.

Smá:
To achieve authority over church and to perceive worldly goals shall be considered a sin, as it denies unification through faith and follows the path of conquest. To follow mischievous and evil/warmongering Spirits or Saints, is to sway from the All-Father's path, and treating them as beings of Lumminarium shall be considered a sin.
