Aramon

Aramon is the god of order and light. He is often depicted as a tall human in shining silver armour, holding a set of merchants' scales in his right hand and a winged sword in his left. He is the patron deity of the Phoebian League, and his name is closely associated with wealth, power, and civilization.

To worshippers of Aramon, Order is a product of hierarchies, and Light is used to root out dissent. This is shown in his depictions. The merchants' scales represent his bringing order, and the winged sword reflects the speed with which his light will strike down dissidents.

Money is seen as a source of order, as it formalizes transactions and enforces social order. The wealthy are above the poor, and the presence of coin allows this hierarchy to be evidenced. For this reason, the majority of the coin in the region is minted by the church of Aramon and is set with his symbols. Copper pieces feature his mailled fist, silver pieces feature his winged sword, and gold pieces are stamped with a balance scale.

The Church of Aramon

The modern church of Aramon is as much a political body as it is a religious one. Aramon's focus on wealth means that his church consolidates power, while the domain of order produces a strict hierarchy that prevents schisms that damage similar churches.

The Church of Aramon is currently headed by Sister Superior Bartolomea Fagni, a Vae'Nadas chosen by the Shining Lord to be his herald. As the head of the church Aramon has blessed her with substantial divine power. She demonstrates Aramon's favour whenever possible, using his power to identify criminals, force confessions, and mete out justice.
