Unionism has 18 Gods and Goddesses (Vess is non-binary, but old faith dogma does not acknowledge a non-binary term for God). Some of these are Vessel Gods (meaning they once held the Everwatcher's soul in them), Called Gods (meaning the Concilly Council held in conclave that they were mortals who ascended to Godhood through a higher calling), and Joined Gods (meaning the Concilly Council included them in the faith as they used to belong to a conquered people). It is expected that Unionism grows as it controls more land, as some gods from conquered regions are added.
Melca, Mother of Sihndar
Melca is the Goddess of mystery, danger, the unknown, and preparation for adversity. Melca is the patron Goddess of the Sihndar, but she finds worship among the other Elves also, for those who see the signs of calamitous times to come, and seek divine knowledge and preparation to weather the storm. Melca appears as one of the Drovv, a now extinct Race that was the first Race to be wiped out during the last Void Invasion, Melca appearing to the Elves who had traveled to Drowda and assumed the task of fighting back the Demon Invasion. Melca is prayed to for foresight of future problems and disasters, giving visions of troubling times to come, and sending cryptic hints to avert ruin. She is sometimes also called the Spider-Mother, and it is said that spiders whisper her secrets to the faithful. The largest Temple to Melca is the Temple of Dark Premonitions in Xaster Xan-Xavacellon, an unusually ornate building in an otherwise dreary and brutalist architectural settlement. Melca's holy warriors are the Blue Sky Wardens, wearing glowing and glittering Melcarite (depicted in the art) armor, that was traditionally worn by the Drovv people, traveling the world in search of new weapons to wield against future calamities.
