Mehocism

= Mehocism =

Mehocism was founded by player qwtt, a week after his arrival on rathnir. The religion's holy city is the city of Cromerth-bod-Rathnir(shortened to Cromerth), where the vast majority of it's followers reside. All aspects of Mehocist theology is handled by the religious bureacracy of Cromerth-bod-Rathnir. Additionally, the Goik/Goika(King/Queen) of Cromerth-bod-Rathnir is also seen as a leader of the Mehocist people in both a religious and political way. The Mehocist religion places great emphasis on blood sacrifices.

Creation
This section deals with the creation myths of the Mehocists

First World
Mehocists beleive that before the creation of the world, there was no one but the Creator God, Albi living in his abode, Cromerth. It is beleived that Albi's boredom of being alone in the world lead him to create a new world. This was the first world, Paxia, where he first created a massive expansive ocean and then created mountains of rock which created land. He then sprinkled soil on this land where grass and trees were to grow. However, not being content with watching still and unmoving objects, he created sheep, wolves and all kinds of other animals to roam in this land. Still not impressed, he wanted to create something that could think for itself and build like he had. Hence, he created Man, and gave it Blood which the Mehocists consider the Elixir of life. Paxia was also the world where the Old Alphabet was created. It is said it was created by Albi himself as a language of the Gods.

Second World
After being content with how Paxia turned out. Albi decided to end Paxia and start another one. This was the Second World, Jagdas. Mehocist Theology states that Jagdas was the world in which the other Gods came to be. After seeing how the Humans were showing affection to each other, Albi desired for love. For this, he created he created Eksyn out of Fire. Eksyn was made the Goddess of love and accordingly Albi's wife. After seeing how the humans were quickly overgrowing the world and overpopulating Jagdas. Albi created Fodite out of Water. Fodite was made the Goddess of Life and Death. After seeing how the humans held court discussed and debated, Albi wanted an Advisor. Hence, Maenar was created out of Air. Maenar was made the God of Logic.

Later on, Albi and Eksyn had a son named Ozoas. While Ozoas is considered a God, his domain and composition are ambiguous and heavily debated. Some beleive that Ozoas is made of Fire like Eksyn(Agnists) while some beleive that Ozoas has no composition like Albi(Kudaists)

[NOTE- While the Agnists beleive Ozoas is made of Fire, they beleive that it's not the same fire as Eksyn]

Initially almost all beleived that Ozoas did not have a domain. However, one incident caused a rift in the Mehocist community

Ozoas's Betrayal
Jagdas was Albi's favourite world which he didn't plan to ever destroy. However one day Ozoas descended on Jagdas and with his might smashed Jagdas into pieces for which Ozoas was exiled from Cromerth. This lead to the creation of Azojanom. Some consider Azojanom to be Hell and the place where sinners go to after death(Cromerthii) while others consider it to be a heaven for warriors and valiant souls(Azojanii). For this reason, the Azojanii consider Ozoas to be the God of War. There is also a small subgroup of people who consider Ozoas as a God of Chaos. While the Cromerthii consider Ozoas to not even be a God.

There is a constant war going on between between Albi and Ozoas over the fate of the worlds. Albi wants to create and protect new worlds while Ozoas wants to destroy them.

Third World
We are currently living in the third world of Rathnir. We know little about the happenings in Cromerth and Azojanom since Humans only receive news of the happenings after the end of a world

Rituals
In Cromerth-bod-Rathnir (the loyal town of Mehocism) There is blood sacrifices to the gods, this process is called Xazbav and it goes as follows: The sacrifice will make its way to a holy sacrifice house and will be killed swiftly with an axe, there head will be placed on a platter high in the sky for the gods to eat.

How to pray
You can make a shrine to Mehocism and sacrifice an item and give a speech to the gods.
