Prizyetsi paganism refers to the theology and religious practices of the Prizyetsi peoples which rose to prominence during the first golden age, and is still widely practiced today by many citizens of The United Federation of Prizyetsa both within the Federation as well as abroad. Rather than a single indivisible religion, Prizyetsi paganism has often been described an a system of interlocking and interrelated religious beliefs and practices which incorporate individual regional sects and family traditions which all fit into a broad belief system.

Deities

  • Sünná and Lünná - Goddesses representing the sun and moon personified. Twin sisters Sünná and Lünná, represent the cyclical nature of everything ranging from the cycle of day and night, to that of life itself. Individually, Sünná represents light and hope, while Lünná represents their opposites. Additionally, Lünná is the patron goddess and seen by many as the protector ruring the winter months when darkness envelopes the north of country. Simply referred to as the twins, the two goddesses are often shown together, the pale-white skin of Sünná contrasting the jet-black skin of Lünná.
  • Börri - God of knowledge, building and the arts, and patron of craftsmen and shipbuilders.
