Known across the plane as Siger’Alst, The Phoenix King, Father of the Seir’Ald, The Eldest One, The Eternal Flame, The First Born, The Lightbringer, The Fire Gifter, The First Light, The Cycling, The Spark, and The Stoker of Cinders.

The Leader of the Ko’Cai and Gods of Fire.  

Siger’Alst is the gifted life of sunlight; he is soft grass in warm summer breezes; he is life, death, and rebirth. He is the Cycle, Beginning and End in an eternal waltz. He is the crackling of flame, the brilliance of light, and he is all that is living. 

Siger’Alst’s holy symbol is the Crossed Eternities: two figure 8s forming a cross, with circles overlapping.  

When active on Ithia, which is very rare, it is marked by Siger turning pure white in the sky. Though Siger is always in the Ithian sky, and the shroud of night merely mutes its light till daybreak.  

When active on Ithia, A rare or even fantastical event, she is represented by the planet Merribell, a great white marble in the sky larger than either of the remaining moons. When active, it sits in the center of whichever piece of the greater plane one is on. While Merribell is in the sky, fertility rates are greatly magnified for plants, animals, and people. It seems to diminish pain and leave one with strange, warm comfort.  

Siger’Alst’s divine plane is one of fire, with porous stone and twisting spires, miniature stars at their zeniths. Pools of bright, colorful fire, spreading forth rainbows of light up to a ceiling of prism stones. Thick vines grow from the walls, covered in delicate wild flowers, and small fields of grass grow where volcanic vents spew forth ash. The fire here leaves burns that do not scar but instead heal, removing injuries, blemishes, and scars in time. The Old can feel refreshed, the lame can walk, the deaf can hear, and the mute can speak. Those who choose to risk the deepest pits of liquid fire can regenerate limbs, cure the most vicious of plagues, and cure almost any infirmity if they can handle the pain of burning alive with no hope of finding numb bliss. All things have a cost.  

Siger’Alst commands a small selection of divine artifacts, including the Eld’Dresch, The Eye of Eternity, and the Ashes of Renewal.  

-The Eld’Dresch are Siger’Alst’s six great scimitars, each the size of a small ship. They are the most powerful of any divine weapon, though only Siger’Alst has the physical strength, size, and arms to wield all six at once. The blades magnify kinetic force, coat themselves in plasma, and can summon forth debris from past cycles to rain down on the wielder’s foes. 

-The Eye of Eternity is a small micro-star that sits upon the crown like horns of Siger’Alst as his crown jewel. It holds the power to reincarnate the dead, allowing them to skip the waiting period in Viwrath while retaining the memories of their former lives. It can take control of any fire, be it commanded by God or mage, save that which Siger’Alst himself commands.  

-The Ashes of Renewal is a great urn of ashes which can restore the soil of any land, leech toxins from water, and help grow plants in the most destructive of climates. It is said that Siger made this long ago when he still had hopes of restoring the past cycle worlds that float beyond the Sky Veil. 

Siger’Alst has a few holy artifacts collected by mortals, including the Ashes of Lavender I, The Reforged Sword, and The Urn of the Unborn.  

Siger’Alst views the Sequoia, Manzanita, and Phoenix as sacred.  

Siger’Alst does not conform to the hopes and dreams of mortals below; he is a mountain of a God with sanguine flesh, six muscular arms bound in bangles and gilded chains, rubies, and micro stars stud his thick flesh, and fire serves as his great mane and beard. He wears no clothing, and what little modesty he maintains is a thin, twisting chain of silver, gold, platinum, aluminum, and chromium. Six great horns stretch and twist, forming a crown over his head, and at its zenith sits the Eye of Eternity.  

Siger’Alst looks like a great dim brute but prefers intellectual pursuits and can often be found reading philosophy books, speaking rhetoric with the souls of the intellectual dead, and crafting things by hand. A dreamer, poet, and thinker who believes that creatures are due freedom of will. While preferring the intellectual, he is still willing and exceedingly capable of brute violence, pig-headed stubbornness, and bouts of volcanic rage. 

Siger’Alst grants his divine servants power to heal any wound through blessed fire, though his healing is especially painful. They can summon forth searing holy sunlight and fire and often seize control of another’s arcane fire. Specialized servants of Siger’Alst can also take in dying souls, impregnating themselves and bearing forth the dead with their mental and muscle memories of past lives. Siger’Alst’s servants are the bane of the undead, and their mere presence can turn lesser undead to purified ash.  

Siger’Alst has holidays celebrating high summer when Siger shines the brightest. The day when the heat reaches its annual peak is often taken off, and people celebrate by swimming in rivers, lakes, and oceans. Shady respite and sweet watermelon wines were kept for this celebration.  

Siger’Alst is not worshipped much by the general masses. Instead, small sun cults gather, pursuing eternal life in his grace. His worshippers gather on plateaus, in valleys, in line with Siger’s glorious light, and wherever the sunlight might bathe them in their god’s glory. In places like Evar, these cults are kept secretive to avoid prosecution from those who follow the Fates. His followers summon divine fire and purge minor injuries in ritualistic burnings, and over months or years, any ailment can be cured and aging slowed.  

Siger’Alst holds sacred rites of burning, seasonal cycles, and specialized birth and death rites. Rites of burning include self-immolations of damaged limbs and scars that slowly but surely remove all ailments. Ritualistic dancing at the start and end of Spring and Summer. He also maintains rites to determine past and possible future lives, performed at births and deaths.  

The act of sacrifice to Siger’Alst is not the petty giving of gifts to appease the divine. It is an act of being like him. Taking what is broken, unwanted, or useless, fixing it, and making something new from what was old is finding a new use for what would otherwise never be used again. To give tithe to Siger’Alst is to change some small part of the world and simulate that change in your soul.

Siger’Alst is worshipped in secret places where his servants are prosecuted, but his people are left unmolested; there they build temples of obsidian and glass polished to a mirror finish. They build them atop mountains and around volcanoes, so they catch the sun and shine like second stars. Most of his temples and shrines feature mirrored surfaces, glass, and all that create brilliance. They are lit by open fire and thus require a lot of ventilation. Symbols of the sun Siger are often placed above doorways in places where undead are more common occurrences or over household shrines to avoid the wrath of followers of the Fates.
