Religion in the Amazon Empire is polytheistic. They worship beings known as the sky gods which govern the forces of nature and are governed by mathematics.
Pantheon[]
The Amazonians do not worship their gods in a traditional sense. They treat them as aspects of the world itself and not necessarily beings that can be communed with. However, through meditation, one can achieve harmony and balance, gaining a greater understanding of the patterns and forces that govern the world. They see their pantheon as the avatars of such forces.
Kalkulu[]
Kalkulu is the god of calculus. With the face of a bird and the body of a man, Kalkulu is considered the king of the sky gods and he sits atop a great throne. A sculpture of Kalkulu sits atop the Amazon Clock Tower. Kalkulu is the shining bright sun which the earth itself revolves around.
Ailgeabar[]
Ailgeabar is the god of algebra and balance. He is depicted as a flying, blue feathered serpent that carries the moon around the earth.
Geometria[]
Geometria is the god of geometry and shapes. He governs the earth itself and is depicted as a tiger. Geometria pushes the Earth so that it revolves around Kalkulu, the sun.
Yamkini[]
Yamkini is the trickster god of probability. He is depicted as a chaotic jester whose next move can never be predicted. He is seen as comets and meteors that fly across the sky, and will often crash into Earth.
Sohcah Toa[]
Sohcah Toa is the goddess of trigonometry. She is the daughter of Geometria, and is depicted as a beautiful, yet ordinary woman, the figure to which all mortals can relate with.
Traditions[]
Every year, thousands climb to the top of the Amazon Clock Tower to begin mass meditation. Most people climb to the top on the day of the new year - the first lunar cycle.
Myths[]
While still regarded as only legend by the higher castes, many Amazonians believe in several mythical creatures such as acid spitting dragons, monkey men as well as dwarves.
