The Worship of Multiple Gods

   Whilst many people devote themselves to one god, no god is truly all-encompasing of anyones life. It doesn’t matter how much of a mercenary you are, you’re still touched by the laws of the Lion, it doesn’t matter how grand your line or how noble your house, even the lion is housed by the architecture of the bug.      However, rather than simply paying homage to or having a respect for other masks which simply have a place in their life, some people actively worship mutliple masks, a potentially fraught existence. When you not only respect, but truly WORSHIP multiple gods, you must pay respects to them and wear their mask on holy days and during celebrations. However, to snub one in favor of the other is a potentially lethal mistake, and definitively a grave one.     So, rather than simply wearing one mask or the other, you need to create and wear a mask that celebrates and has features of your multiple Masked Gods, for instance if you are a devotee of both the moth and the raven, perhaps a tailor who creates enchanted clothing, you would need to have elements of both the Raven Mask and the Moth Mask in yours. One possibility is to a black beak with feathers white feathers, or black feathers made out of silk.       However, it is also known that wearing a mask is no simple thing. It is not like wearing a necklace with a metal symbol attached, when you wear a mask of a god you are wearing a Direct Conduit to that god, they will see what you see, and hear what you think. And they will know who you are. And, if you are wearing the mask of a god you do not worship, or if you are wearing a mask your god finds to be insulting, you are wearing a Direct Conduit of their Wrath on your face.It is not illegal to wear another gods mask, specifically because no mortal court is faster than an angry deity with a direct connection to the source of their anger.     Another thing of note however is that not all gods are accepted, and whilst it is not always illegal, it is almost always dangerous  to wear a mask dedicated to the Vulture Masked. And it is known that there are those who worship them within society, somehow staying a secret. How they manage to do such a thing when the gods would punish them for wearing a false mask and the people would punish them for wearing a true one is a mystery.

The Moth Masked

The god of dancing, silk, and weaving. They are mostly worshipped by weavers, fabric workers, and entertainers. 

Favored Race: Halfling, human Favored Class: druid Favored Oaths: redemption, devotion Favored Domains: trickery, light favored weapon: staff Favored Stat: dexterity, charisma

Whilst they were unpopular during the war of the masks, and almost unheard of due to their lack of involvement, in modern times they have become a popular god, the silks and clothes their worshipers make, or the services they provide, have lead to them being one of the largest segments of the Court City’s population, with only servants outnumbering them to any degree.
