The title of this religion is Symphonia. Here is an overview overview. Symphonia is dedicated to the joy of harmony, music and performance. They are known for putting on lavish events and festivals with performance and music. They are known for song, poetry and other feats of the performing arts. They spread the word of Nevalis through their song, but truly just wish to bring out the beauty of harmony in the form of performance and art. Leader, Shailiha. Symphonia's symbols are The silhouette of a ballerina dancer, a set of golden music scales, a lyre within a laurel wreath, and the colors green, yellow, and cyan. There are no known sects. Tenants of Symphonia are, Practice your art every day (poetry, music, ballads) Be compassionate and merciful to others. Celebrate your loves and losses. Treat every day like a song and respect the melody. Keep balance within your heart and soul. Lore, Some time ago, a mortal named Shailiha asked the Ikon Omnira if they could create together a religion devoted to music. Omnira agreed, and Symphonia was created, with Omnira as its leader. Known members of Symphonia were Shailiha, Miri, and Akiko. A school for children was built, focusing on the teaching of music and other arts. Today, the members of Symphonia continue to spread great joy with their talents for drama, music and more. The Opera composer Andir was delighted to work with some of the musicians from Symphonia, enlisting their aid as singers and violinists. The opera was a roaring success. One brave poet named Leradan visited the Universitus and persuaded a few shy young men and women into what became the annual poetry slam. Somewhat of a blacksmith, Leradan carved the perfect statue of a golden cheese for the silliest or worst poem he had ever heard. Symphonia continued like this until Omnira left them leaving the religion in the capable hands of Shailiha. Her name was Nevalis, and she did not lead, but was happy to let her followers go where they may as she was the true owner of Music and Harmony and the religion that Shailiha and others laid out, filled her heart with Joy. Symphonia's religion is allied with Vantiga. Worship, Faith and Practices, Each year Symphonia holds a festival dedicated to harmony and the arts. This summer festival brings together poets, bards, harpers, dancers, minstrels, and others to show off their talents to others and most especially the goddess. This festival is also in honor of celebration and the ceremonial punch bowl is always kept filled. Here are the stages of Symphonia. Stage manager, In this stage, the leader of the religion is responsible for all others no matter what rank. He or she oversees any events planned and helps in the productions of such events. He or she also fills in if a roll such as musician is vacant. Vibrato, This stage belongs to the voice of the religion, the teacher who listens to the others and gives them advice when the leader is absent. He or she may fill any roll such as dancer, minstrel, musician, and so on. Baroque, This stage belongs to the bards, minstrels and poets. It is the unique stage of Symphonia where those who love to show off their talents in a loud and showy fashion reside. Minstrels who can contort while playing the vielle are welcome here for example. Musician, This stage belongs to the harpers and lyre players, cellists and players of any musical instrument in the world. They seek to make others and each other happy as they learn their craft. There is no shortage of people willing to teach them in the religion. Choreographer, This stage is for the dancers who wish to learn to move freely to the beat. They often work with the musicians and sometimes with the baroque. These dancers are usually those who also like to shine and please a crowd. Dilettante, This stage belongs to the novices, the beginners of the religion. These people are those who are either new at their craft, or wanting to learn something new. Symphonia welcomes them with open arms and is always willing to teach. You can join by seeking out a member of Symphonia and expressing your wish to join the religion. They will talk to you about the religion and ask you if your goals align. If they do and they have the power to induct you, they may or may take you to the leader who will talk to you herself. You will start from the bottom and work your way to a spot that is right for you.
