The Twins: God of Death, Games, and The Ender of Suffering

The Twins is the god or gods of death. If you ask any cleric of The Twins they will tell you that this was the second god to be created for with life must come death. This is a god that everyone must meet and the most common to interact with mortals. For you see The Twins are very compassionate beings and take their job with a grim duty. They understand it must be done. So they act as the shepherd of souls into whichever afterlife the soul should now be homed, be it in the care of the heavens or condemned to depravity in the Nine Hells. To them each soul is deserving of understanding and respect.

The Twins enjoy playing games and will often finish eachothers sentences. They are very matter of a fact and always come to the same agreement. It’s for this reason there is much debate over if The Twins are a single entity that simply inhabits two forms or if they are indeed two separate beings. They also have a love for games which brings us to perhaps the reason The Twins are often encountered by the living.

In Alestria one may pray to The Twins and beseech them for the resurrection of a soul. As per the rules of this ritual the challenger must play a game with The Twins. Provided you win the soul will be resurrected back into the material plane. Be warned. The longer one waits the harder the game shall be.
