Deities of Cartyrion
The world of Cartyrion was shaped and brought to life by powerful beings who exist in the Planes Beyond. Though they live outside the world itself, they have sufficient contact with Cartyrion and its inhabitants to significantly affect all aspects of life.
But though everyone among the Folk of Cartyrion know of the Creator, there are no religions and no cults dedicated to this omnipotent entity. No offerings, no sacrifices, not even prayers are offered, because it is also known by all the Folk that the Creator, having built the world itself many thousands of years ago, departed.
The Astralar are not a single race of beings; there are many races among them, and at least a dozen extend their reach to Cartyrion. They do not always act in concert with each other; in fact they never do. Their rivalries have brought great consequence to the world, and likely will again someday.
