Canon:Believers of the Source
This article is based on material by: |
The Believers of the Source, nick-named the Godsmen, are one of the factions of the Planes.
Philosophy[edit]
They believe that all beings come from one Source and thus all have a divine spark in them. Life is a test for each individual. If the test is passed, one ascends to a higher level, up to god-hood and beyond. But if it is failed, one winds up in a demoted status in the next live. When everyone has achieved the ultimate ascencion, the Godsmen believe, the multiverse will dissolve and a whole new existence will come into being.
Location[edit]
The most important plane to the Believers of the Source is the Ethereal Plane, the plane of potentialities and creation. In the city of Sigil, the Godsmen are based in the Great Foundry, the city's industrial heart and workshop, symbolic for the forging everyone undergoes in life.
