Herrsland and Alvernon keep the same Pantheon of gods and goddesses. Herrsland is more strict and devote in following traditions and ceremony, and are by reputation very religious. Alvernon keeps a more casual approach.
Agatha- Goddess of the Home and of Mothers, Queen of the Gods
Zygmunt - God of Justice and Law, King of the Gods
Mabyn - Goddess of Learning and Wisdom
Palladius - God of the Hunt, Tracking, and Traveling
Fabius - God of the Drink, Festivals, Happiness
Isberga & Ivan - Goddess and God of War, "the Twins of War" or "the Red Twins"
There are shrines and monasteries to them with men and women who study and teach (preach). Anyone is free to enter these places to pray. Every town usually has a church for worship led by a priest or priestess. Commonly, the churches (unlike shrines or monasteries which are devoted to one god over another) worship the entire pantheon, and often take care of the poor, as the Holy Queen Agatha would have wanted.
Tavish has their own Pantheon:
Ingrid Goddess of War, the Warrior Queen
Konrad Consort of Ingrid, God of the Seasons and of Hunting
Saradoc God of Lust and Passion
Cissa Goddess of Love and Innocence
Galla Goddess of Death
Grimbald God of Judgement
Tethmar God of Music and Merriment
A Tavish man or woman will usually devote themselves to one of these gods or goddesses. They will recognize all of them, but they will be particularly attached to one, sometimes chosen for them at birth, chosen during childhood, or chosen themselves before their rites to manhood or womanhood.
