Utmurisk paganism

Utmurisk paganism was the ancient religion of the Utmurisk peoples, who lived in what is modern day Mursland. The term describes the religious beliefs, myths and ritual practices of the Utmurisks before Islamisation and Christianisation in respectively 7th and 6th. The religion was practised until the 2nd century BCE, at which point all followers had been converted.

Not many contemporary sources exist of the practices, and much of the texts available are interpretations by Christian scholars rather than practitioners of the faith. At various points in history, groupings have attempted to reinvented the religion. Success varied, and saw severe oppression by the established religions once the movement gained size. This would often cause an iconoclasm of ancient monuments and structures, which erased much evidence of the practices.

Realms
The Utmurisk believed there existed several realms.

Gods
It is uncertain how many gods are part of the Utmurisk religion, as gods often had several names and over time some gods changed function.

Yauh
Yauh was the god of all that is material. In ancient texts, Yauh was referred to in plural, as they were said to have both male and female form, and switched between them constantly.

The highest point of Mursland, Yauhi, is named after this god. It was believed to be their residence during their stays on earth.

Prisvrane
Prisvrane, also Krasvane or Pritrane, was the god of food and sometimes of either richness or physical strenght.

Mudros
Mudros, also possibly Utmiu, was the god of wisdom and spirit.
