Lonysus, God of Light Character in Deabros | World Anvil

Lonysus, God of Light

(a.k.a. Dream)


Lonysus is not just a Champion of Light. He is the Lord of Dreams. To the Followers of Lonysus, this is meant to be as metaphorical as it is literal. Aspirations and goals fall well into his realm, which is especially important during the Dreamless Era. He is often revered as the God who protects those while they sleep. For Lenosites, His original worshipers, dreams from Lonysus came as prophetic guidance to the future. They guided his followers to pursue certain paths over others. Indeed, even personal dreams of pursuit are considered impulses delivered by Lonysus.   The Lenosites and a significant portion of the exiled Kalashtar used to be the sole worshipers of Lonysus.   In the Twilight Faith, worship of Lonysus has radically changed. Whereas it was once believe Vesyna and Lonysus were natural born enemies, revelations from the Thalantir of Old proclaimed them to be entities tied together. The Twilight Faith challenges its worshipers to believe in both and to strike a balance between light and dark.
