The Morninglord
The Cult of the Morninglord was was born late in the fifth century, when the faith's founder claimed that when he was a young boy, the Morninglord appeared to him in physical form and protected him from the roaming menaces of the Barovian night. Based on this singular encounter, the Morninglord is usually depicted as a luminous sylvan humanoid. Although he is formed of soft golden light, his face is smeared with blood. The cult teaches that this strange detail may be a sign that even the gretest good may hold some evil stain, and even the most depraved evil may yet contain a spark of good.
The Morninglord is the god of the rosy dawn that marks the end of every night. The deity asks little of his followers, save that they treat each other with kindness and retain hope in their hearts. This humble faith holds great appeal for those who have little more than hope and kindness to offer. Its simple teachings conceal a message of intense hope. No matter how bleak the future may seem, no matter how dark the night, the dawn will come. Many of the Morninglord's followers follow a prophecy that says, someday, the Morninglord will return once again to lead the world into the daylight.
