Kiri-Jolith

Background
Kiri-Jolith is the god of courage, honor, justice, and unity. He is the patron of all the warriors who fight in the name of holiness and justice. He is representative of the virtues of courage and honor. In essence, he is the god of holy warfare. Kiri-Jolith is the son of Paladine and Mishakal, and the twin brother of Habbakuk. He is also brother to Solinari. Kiri-Jolith is close with most of the gods of good, particularly Paladine and Habbakuk, but has the least in common with Branchala. Kiri-Jolith is closest to Reorx and Shinare among the gods of neutrality and is especially opposed to Sargonnas, who he sees as his rival, and Hiddukel because of his lies and deceit.

Kiri-Jolith promotes courage and justice and is the spirit of honorable battle. He is not a warlike god, however, but supports war when it is necessary to maintain integrity. He promotes strength of spirit in times of peace. He is the courageous spirit of bonds among mortals. Kiri-Jolith was one of the three patron gods of the Knights of Solamnia and the patron deity for the Knights of the Sword. Kiri-Jolith is also revered among the minotaur people as "Emperor," and is their second most-worshipped god.
