Perinas, the Firelord

Perinas is the pirmary god of worship in Jaziir, the land which he, too, created. Resembling a mighty man of Jaziir, he is depicted as wearing a kimono of blue silk, sporting many jewels, each with a raging fire within. He wields a scimitar of glowing red steel, and on his head thrones a black turban, the clothing that is today worn by the priesthood in Jaziir. His eyes burn with an eternal flame, amplifying the awe one feels when gazing upon him.

Worship
Jaziirs worship of Perinas goes through art. Certain jobs are viewed as 'sacred jobs', and those within these crafts who crate something twisted or ugly, are prosecuted by very strict religious laws, set up by the Scorpic family. The ones who act as the people's link to Perinas are called Periirs, and are a very standard priesthood whose laws withiin allow only for people with magical potential, but without permission to use it. Only those with a red shade of turban (the colours are a sign of priestly rank) may train the art of Pyromancy, and this never in public.

Heroes
Perinas has three Heroes; each a direct link to the rulers of the three families in Jaziir, and each also head of a branch of the Periirs.

Osman the Lord Pyromancer is the head of the Red Turbans; the Periir 'warrior' branch. He resides mostly on the Lionites' islands, where he gives the family head advice and oversees the fair composition of its high council. His skills as a Pyromancer are said to be incredible to behold, and Lionite citizens, especially the children, all look forward to the summer and winter solstice, where Osman's powers are used in a giant show of fireworks, visible even from the mainland,

Mustafa the Master Hypnotizer is a mystical figure, residing in Snake port where he ensures the family's grip over all trade in Jaziir. Few people are truly aware of his ability to set people into a trance, as he often causes amnesia to his victims. He lords over the Black Turbans, the 'prayer' branch of the Periir.

Qirimath the overchef is a master of spices, one of Ardalore's most expert chefs. The meals served in the Senate of the Scorpids are so legendary in Jaziir, that it is said that anyone who ingests such will experience divine levels of enjoyment. Qirimath is the leading figure among the Green Turbans, the 'secular' branch of the Periir. Think of him as the man who arranges the religious festivals in Ilyasjyad for the joy of everyone.
