Church locations
Nearly every nation that allows the church of Bahamut to operate in their territory has their own Church Hierarch, and temples to Bahamut can be found in every major city, as well as many smaller ones. Each church is in constant communication with each other, and they all rotate staff often.
The largest church in Syra is the Platinum Citadel, located in the Dragon Lands.
Organizations
There are four organizations recognized by the church of Bahamut:
- Knights of the Thundering Hall - An independent order of paladins, cavaliers and mounted knights based in Orodeth that have dedicated themselves to a higher order of morality and ideals. Once dedicated to Heironeous, they chose to follow the tenets of Bahamut but have placed themselves outside of church authority.
- Order of Clerks - This order forms the bureaucracy of the church. They can also be found aiding and supporting governments, organizations or individuals with lawyers, law clerks or legal help.
- Order of Dragons - The protectors of the church and its worshipers, this order can be found on guard duty on church grounds or on missions for their church or deity.
- The Platinum Citadel - An independent order of worshipers based in the Dragon Lands that have dedicated themselves to the protection of the world against Chromatic Dragons and their agents, as well as the goddess Tiamat.
