Luxren (luhx-RENN)
The god of technology, Luxren grants inspiration to inventors in their workshops, scientists in their labs, and anyone trying to create things to make their lives a little easier. They are the force behind the development of new technology in all of its forms, from the obvious--the Calling Crystal, Tensertruck, and Ethernet--to the more subtle--advances in agriculture, architecture, and nutrition. As a young god, they are less well known than the other fourteen, but they are no less divine. Somewhat derived from the domains of Lady Anteus, Lord Coznir, Meean, Lord Nione, and Ozais, Luxren is a synthesis of their domains blended into a single entity. Their male aspect reflects the mechanics of the multiverse; he is the god of anyone who has their hands directly on, under, and inside the object of creation. Their female aspect is a theorist, designing sweeping changes and applying her knowledge to wide areas of the world.
Divine Domains
Lady Luxren's domain is technological innovation as experienced at the highest levels. She is the goddess of the civil engineers and public health experts, software designers and political scientists. She leads people of insight and discernment to the breakthroughs they need in order to better the lives of thousands. Moreover, she is the patron of those things which might not immediately be understood as "technology" in the traditional sense; of stirrups, plowshares, and weaving, rather than trains and sending crystals and teleportation.
Lord Luxren, by contrast, is the god of obvious technology. He is the patron of Tensertruck mechanics, Ethernet artificers, and Calling Crystal technicians. Also under his domain are Lightning Rail conductors, teleportation matrix engineers, warp scientists, doctors in teaching hospitals experimenting with revolutionary treatments, farmers harvesting magically altered crops, and anyone who is on the cutting edge.
Clerics of Luxren are dedicated to the technology domain, and their paladins have thus far sworn oaths of the crown.
Holy Books & Codes
The holy texts of Luxren are entirely on the Ethernet! Contained in the deepest code of the oldest sections of the ‘Net, there are bits of wisdom about the multiverse. These pieces are being hunted down and codified by the god’s fledgeling priesthood, with new verses being discovered every moon. The holy book, which is updated regularly as new passages are confirmed to be the words of Luxren, is known as The Ethernet Archive and is housed in the new Hall of Technology, which is being constructed in the temple district of New Solaria.
Divine Symbols & Sigils
Lady Luxren is represented by a slender, ivory tower with a mote of light bursting from its highest parapet.
Lord Luxren is represented by a circuit, or sometimes a wrench.
Tenets of Faith
Holidays
Quojunsul, the day of Luxren’s emergency into the world of mortals, is the day dedicated to celebrating them. Additionally, the short, 15 day month which is inserted into the calendar every 150 years in order to balance the seasons is being renamed in honor of the new god.
