The high judge of the
deities, Everentual is a servant of the Counsil in much the same way Forsha once was and Han~Sui currently is. Unlike those deities,
Everentual has garnered few faithful.
While his position grants
him much power over what is done with the deities, that power has not
given him a great many faithful. Only the elite worship Everentual. He
appeals to those that are in power, ruling over others. Since there are
always more taking orders than giving them, Everentual’s pool of
possible followers is small.
Those that worship him are
fanatical and demanding. They enforce every edict he declares. They
are pitiless to the cults.
The other deities of the
Counsil abide by Everentual’s decisions. While some do not agree, the
mandate to the judges is final and unwavering. To Everentual, any deity
that does not agree with a decision the judges have made is in error.
His clerics are no different.
The other religions respect
but avoid the clerics of Everentual, who are seen as impractical and
always find some flaw with clerics of other deities. The cults despise
Everentual’s clerics, who take nothing into consideration before
condemning them on principle.
The great judge has never
graced his followers with an appearance. Many renditions of his
appearance have been created, but none have ever taken hold as the
definitive version.

Dogma: Everyone is
judged at all times. The soul cannot be hidden or changed and is
therefore the ultimate measurement. To be fair and equal in all things
is the goal. Action should only be taken after long deliberation, and
even then only when absolutely necessary. Only the foolish take extreme
views. Death comes the same to all. Only the soul returns to life
after death. The actions of a soul in one life affect its station in
the next.
