Quick Description
Quick Description
Bori is the father of the Hyborian people ("hy-bori" means "sons of bori").
He is worshipped as an immensely important ancestor rather than a god. His priests claim no divine power or magic in his name.
Bori worship is simple and humble. There are no grand temples or powerful priests, just simple roadside and housegold shrines.
Worshippers will often pour out a little food or drink before imbibing, as an offering to Bori and to their ancestors. Many of those who have switched faith to another god will still perform the simple rituals of Bori.
