INFO:

Hek-Ra is the god of War. He is the Bringer of War, and the Warlord of the Eternal Battlefield. To those who follow him, War is a way of life, not a means to an end. War is waged to only beget more war. Confrontation is the truest path to personal enlightenment.
Appearing as a giant, clad in full bloody platemail, wielding two golden morningstars, Hek-Ra is often seen in visions on battle fields, as that is his church. His chosen or his priests see Hek-Ra during a war, and his visage is a sign of fortune for the side of war. During a charge across the battlefield, if led by one of Hek-Ra’s clerics, the image of Hek-Ra will be seen by the enemy, above the charging unit, racing along with them. This demoralizes their opponents and increases the war and the casualties.
Hek-Ra is the son of N'Asu, God of the Dead. And Hek-Ra increases his beloved father’s plane of Purgatos with each war. Hek-Ra works diligently to keep his father deep in souls and has a burning hatred for Nimbos, who Hek-Ra sees as a spoiled rotten child with a foul temper. Hek-Ra also openly opposes Caen, due to his portfolio. Murder is death without war, or confrontation. Hek-Ra also refuses to interact with the Elven Pantheon, due to the Great Offense, as Hek-Ra sees their leaving as cowardice before the great battle. Most of the Dwarven Pantheon respect Hek-Ra. It is rumored Jhudsûi and Hek-Ra play a twisted game with their followers, seeing which race can pull off the biggest war.

FOLLOWERS:

Hek-Ra is worshipped by anyone who is at war, warriors who see war daily, or those who are titled warmongers. Hek-Ra is a fierce god and his followers fight to increase Hek-Ra’s presence on Edus.

Restrictions:

• -War is nature. War must be held above all other decisions. Never talk treaties.
  
• - A dishonor cannot be allowed to stand. A dishonored priest is nothing but a coward.
  
• - Priests of Hek’Ra must always spar or fight, at least once a day. Preparation of War demands practice.
  
• - Those who oppose the decisions coming from priests of Hek’Ra that pertain to war, blaspheme his holy name. Blasphemers must be dealt with after war or battle.
  
• - You may not decline alcohol offered. Alcohol loosens peaceful men's tongues and waddles them into war.
  
• - Warriors who fight well are healed first. Those who do not…are not. Hek’Ra supports no cowardice.
