Order of the Sun Soul

The Order of the Sun Soul is not native to Negaria; it can be found on another plane of existence. However, items created by or for the order have been found here, likely imported by interplanar traders such as Grazby.

Little is known about the order. It appears that its monks believe that they each harbor a fragment of the essence of a deceased sun god. Monks of the order are trained to tap into the "spiritual light" within and manifest it externally. Staunch opponents of darkness, evil, and chaos, the Sun Soul monks serve as crusaders against churches of evil deities, defenders of the common folk, and protectors of sites sacred to deities of light and good.

Interestingly enough, though Wilsash is god of the moon, in Negaria there was no definitive god or goddess of the sun until the ascension of Ti'si'faan in AOD 2259. That said, it is rumored that some non-dwarf worshipers of Gorethar (who don't spend the bulk of their lives underground and thus live exposed to the sun), inspired by items from this order, have formed a branch of the Order of the Sun Soul somewhere in southern Negaria, though such rumors are unsubstantiated.
