Indorai

Indorai is a polytheistic religion practiced almost exclusively in Irocra that has its roots in the religion of the Irocai. The Indorai pantheon consists of three gods: Aveces (goddess of creation), Siempre (goddess of chaos), and Menudo (god of balance). It is believed that Menudo, the son of Aveces and Siempre, is the guardian of all life and is responsible for maintaining a balanced world. Within the Indorai church there are three order, each dedicated to one of these deities, and they are all governed from Indorai Center in northern Irocra.

Mythology & Lore

In the beginning there was Aveces and Siempre, two lovers eternally in conflict with each other. Aveces loved to create; what she created, Siempre would immediately reduce to nothingness. In such a cycle there could never be life until Aveces and Siempre came together to create Menudo. Menudo, possessing the traits of both his mothers, was the only being who could strike a balance between Aveces's creation and Siempre's destruction. It was in that balance that life as we know it came to be.

Divine Origins

It is unclear when exactly Indorai developed, but the concept of Menudo was firmly entrenched in Irocai culture long before they began spreading south of the Ganuiles Mountains.

Priesthood

Indorai doctrines and teachings are determined by the three Indorai orders:

• Order of the Balanced Son
• Sisterhood of the Loving Mother
• Sisterhood of the Chaotic Mother

These orders are responsible for maintaining the temples around Irocra, sharing the teachings of their associated deity, and exerting that deity's influence within the world.
In order to join one of the Indorai orders, a person must feel called to join by that particular deity. They must then go to Indorai Center and go through the initiation process for that particular order. This usually involves meditation, study, and practice of rituals.
Though there does not exist a universal Indorai clergy, there is an appointed assembly with representatives from each of the orders that dictates the central narrative of Indorai teachings.
