The Church of Lyn
Mythology & Lore
It is said that in the Time Before, Lyn was a powerful Sorceress. After many trials she had made it to The Bright, and that she ascended to Godhood. However, Lyn was not pure and couldn't ascend as she was, the ascension tore her into Nine separate Aspects. These Aspects renamed themselves created their own realms, however as time went on the Aspects, having a mortal nature, sought to have an active effect on the Material Plane.
Divine Origins
The Aspects did not all get along and some hated each other. The way they presented themselves to mortals was not seamless and confusion over the aspects continued for hundreds of years.
Kingdom of Eracone - The Eracone Kingdom had a religious Enlightenment due to the Aspects revealing themselves to the Humans of Eracone. This is where the Organization known as the Church of Lyn came to be. Small villages still pray to other Gods and Godesses, but not as much in the cities.
Kingdom of Laramose - The Tiefling leader of Laramose is said to have been told that he was the Avatar of Wrenn by Wrenn himself, as well as Leshaea for the Fire Genasi Leader, and Deyla for the Earth Genasi Leader. This came in contentient with Archon when they claimed to be the Avatars of three other Aspects. Three great Holy Wars were fought over this.
Kingdom of Archon - The Aasimar leader of Archon is said to have been told that he was the Avatar of Hahmhir by Hahmhir himself, as well as Marianna for the Water Genasi Leader, and Mehra for the Air Genasi Leader. This came in contentient with Laramose when they claimed to be the Avatars of three other Aspects. Three great Holy Wars were fought over this.
Delorika - The Nine Aspects of Lyn came to Delorika all at once, as different colored Dragons. Before anything was said the six non-evil aspects began battle with the three evil aspects. The Chromatic Clergy then began to believe that their God, Chroma, split herself into Nine different Aspects and the Chromatic Clergy shifted into believing in the Aspects.
