Type Universal religion
Sacred text Lucindas
Theology Monotheism

The Lucianus (LOO-shee-AW-nis or LOO-shee-AN-iss) is a monotheistic matriarchal religion that teaches the worship of a single all-powerful Goddess who descended to the earth in human form 500 years ago as Lucia to cleanse the world of sin.

Prevalence

The largest population of Lucians—in fact, the majority—exist in the Alicantian Empire. Although in the minds of most people in Teresis the Lucianus is inextricably coupled with the Alicantian Empire, it is the state religion of two other sovereign states: Vallyra and Kimmarab. In addition, there is a substantial Lucian population in Riyan, Phoena, and Imray.

Doctrines

Among the central doctrines of the Lucianus are:

  • Monotheism: Lucians believe in one god: the Goddess.
  • Millenarianism: Lucians believe that, around the year 500 AOL, on the Black Day, Lucia will return and usher in a thousand-year golden age on the earth.
