Legends

Rha, also known as Ivhepetra, was actually a joke amongst the Divinity. His creation was origninally that of a Lion killing an eagle with a snake in it's mouth, where the lion died as a result of the snake biting it in it's dying struggle. Enjoying the Irony of this, High Father decided to ressurect them as a hybrid avatar. Part Lion, Part Eagle, part snake. While not a true Manticore, He would become the inspiration for them. And became the joke of the Gods as "The Divine Pet". In response to this ridicule, Ivheptra outright stripped himself of his own Divinity and went to live amongst mortals. 

 

Church

Churches of Ivheptra represent leadership, Light and Ressurection. As such, they often have two key features. The first of which being their bright white design and beautiful design of lots of gold and large, gorgeous windows with the inside being filled with hundreds of candles to bathe the inside in light. The other feature is it's glorious graveyards, where each Grave is adorned with large, magnificent golden and marble monuments atop an elaborate Crypt adorned with the deceased's belongings.

 

Spell Preparation Rituals

When the sun is highest is when worshippers of Ivheptra view most sacred. As well, any spell preparation must be done either near a feline, bird, or snake creature's home or near a burial ground. If none are available, the user must sacrifice a small feline, bird, or snake as tribute.
