Hordesman ancestor worship

Religions of Therrah

The Hordesman of the Black Mountains (or Black Horde) have a system of beliefs that, according to their traditions, goes back to the dawn of mankind. A central part of their beliefs is that the Black Mountains are the center of all creation. They believe that the Horde (past, present, and future) will rise up at the end of days as an army against the Nameless One. This influences much of their culture and daily lives. They believe their ancestors watch their actions and can influence their lives with good luck and bad luck. A true Hordesman fights for his own honor, the honor of his family, the honor of his ancestors, and the honor of his clan. There are two groups of Black Horde Shaman: Great Shaman and Clan Shaman. There are three types of Great Shaman: benevolent White Shaman, terrifying Black Shaman, and matronly Earth-mothers. The Great Shaman typically live separately and serve all the clans/clan leaders, when called. Clan Shaman serve their clan and their territory. There is typically a hierarchy under the clan’s High Shaman.
