Silence
Silence the Bloodkeeper God
About
Silence is a God that has been worshiped since its creation after
The Great Bloodkeeper War.
The Great Bloodkeeper War.
Silence is almost entirely worshiped only by Bloodkeepers, and as a result not much is spoken about them outside of Bloodkeeper tribes.
Silence was created after the war, and is considered as the guardian and warden of Bloodkeeper, created to aid them in becoming a peaceful and humbled species.
Silence is depicted as both male and female, or sometimes between the two. It is common to refer to Silence either by name, or with They/Them pronouns.

Imagery and Belief Systems
General
Most creatures do not follow Silence, or know of their collective existence. Bloodkeeper tribes have murals and temples for honouring them, and they are abundant on the demons' lands. The temples and images are more scarce the farther you go, particularly in human territory where Bloodkeeper establishments may be defaced.
The Great Bloodkeeper War
After the war, there was a boom in Bloodkeepers severing themselves from believing in Devishtari. Most tribes claimed to have had seers see two high ranking BloodKeepers responsible for the war ascend to Godhood, and that Silence is their ethereal form meant to guide them to honour and glory.
There are numerous instances of murals depicting Devishtari on Bloodkeeper land being defaced and painted over in Silence's image.

What kind of God is Silence?
As always, great art! I also like the symbolism: Silence is the only answer to war. Really great.
Why is Silence always depicted as only one person? They were 2 people, right? Why aren't they depicted in a Yin-and-Yang or similar fashion as 2 beings that work together?
Thank you! Silence is depicted as one person, though often with multiple limbs (see the image in the article with two tails). The God is meant to portray feminine and masculine features blended into one, so they're of one body : )
Now I kinda wanna see a depiction with 4 arms or 2 heads (since you didn't directly specify "limbs"). xD
