Worship of the Akiri Pantheon is the main faith in the Amber Wastes, and the Amber Wastes is the primary center for the Pantheon's worship.[1] Although the pantheon contains numerous gods and goddesses, three major gods stand out in importance in relation to the Amber Wastes. These three gods are Osiris, Ra, and Set.[2] In Pharazia, Diamabel is trying to suppress worship of the ancient gods and replace it with adherence to the religion he created.[3] On the other hand, it is the state religion of Har'Akir, and the clergy also rule the state.[4] Despite Ra technically being the leader of the gods, Osiris commands more respect in Har'Akir for his transcendence and power over life and death.[5]
The Akiri Pantheon is based on the Eqyptian pantheon of real world Earth.
