Faith and Belief

Most of the population follow the Church of the Chosen Ones. Formerly, until around 900, the world had almost exclusively followed Taarskoism, worship of the ancient Vargr god Taarskoe.

• The regional sect of the Church has declared Taarskoe to be a prophet of the faith and formally recognized his teachings, and in so doing has brought many followers of Taarskoism into its fold.
• Many of the faithful carry a short, unadorned sword.
• Some groups reject the Church of the Chosen Ones, continuing to follow pure Taarskoism.

World Law (L)

Khungorr has a high law level with laws covering many areas of interactions of people, corporations, and the government. A few worlds with this law level may be Amber Zones.
