Horm

Horm is the god worshipped by most of Hormskirk's inhabitants

Horm, the god of pleasure and sacrifice, is represented by a humanoid statue with three heads, two of which are pierced with a blade by Horm himself.

This divinity particularly appreciates the sacrifice of others and the spectacle; that is why every week a ritual takes place in his honour in which a worshipper is publicly sacrificed. This is the ritual of Ac Roth Tut

To honor their god, the faithful make offerings whenever they want, as long as at least one offering is made each month. The most common way is to cut off your arm in order to make your blood flow into a cup. It is therefore easy to recognize a Hormskirk worshipper by these scars. This blood is then recovered for later use. However, food or other material goods are also considered as an offering.

In exchange for this offering, Horm gives his followers the right to indulge in all the pleasures they desire. Moreover, an assassination is not frowned upon by the latter as long as it serves the killer in some way and the murderer is not also a worshipper. However, if a worshipper has committed a serious fault in Horm's eyes, he can be killed. In addition, Horm marks each person who disgraced him with his own symbol but crossed, letting everyone know that this person has done wrong. Still, Horm is a forgiving god and he gives everyone a chance to make up for it.

These rules have given rise to many guilds of assassins, some respecting the precepts of the god, others using them as a pretext. The most widespread is the guild of Horm's murderers.

Horm worshippers live with the main rule, which is also the god's motto: Fun is never bad until you come to regret it.
