CHAPTER 2 | FAITHS OF KHORVAIRE 51

THE PATH OF LIGHT



  • ?MTQ^MQVIVIOMWNLIZSVM[[?MU][\ÅVL
    the path that leads to the light.

  • Act with compassion and courage. Each
    noble act is a step on the path.

  • Hone your body and your mind. You are
    the tool you will use to change reality.


The Path of Light is the faith of the kalashtar and
has few followers in Khorvaire. A Lightspeaker
seeks to KPIVOMZMITQ\a—in the big picture by
ushering in an age of light, while on the small
[KITMJaM`KQ[QVOVMOI\Q^MQVÆ]MVKM[IVL
performing good works.
While compassion is important, there are those
among the followers of the Path of Light who
believe in taking surgical action to eliminate
sources of evil. Where followers of the Silver
Flame believe that all mortals can be brought to
the Flame, some who follow the Path of Light
believe that it’s more expedient to eliminate an

next incarnation.


THE UNDYING COURT



  • Our greatest champions and sages will
    never be lost to us. Their wisdom guides us,
    and their power protects us all.

  • Honor our past. Respect our traditions.
    Perfect your skills and you may earn your
    place among the Deathless.

  • Destroy those foul creatures that channel
    the power of Mabar, for they consume the
    essence of our world.
    The elves of Aerenal refuse to allow their
    greatest souls to be lost to Dolurrh. Using
    powerful magic, they raise these champions
    as LMI\PTM[[, a form
    of undead imbued
    with positive energy.
    The Undying Court
    is a council of the
    deathless, ancient
    elves who have guided
    their descendants
    for twenty thousand
    years. As individuals, a
    deathless councilor is
    no more powerful than
    a traditional lich. But
    working in concert, the Undying Court creates
    a pool of energy that empowers their divine
    spellcasters.
    Of all of these religions, the Undying Court
    is the most grounded in reality. You can go to
    Shae Mordai and seek an audience with the
    Court. As a follower of the Undying Court,
    consider why you are so far from home. Were
    you sent from Aerenal with a mission? Is it for
    the Court as a whole or are you acting as an
    IOMV\WNI[XMKQÅKKW]V[MTWZ ̧XMZPIX[aW]ZW_V
    ancestor? Followers of the Undying Court despise
    negatively charged undead, so without a concrete
    mission, one should seek to destroy the undead
    and the necromancers who rouse them.
