Esoi

Esoi leads the Pantheon of Darkness. Followers of this Pantheon focus their worship not just in the darkness that arises due to the absence of light, but also the darkness of the mortal soul. This worship believes that all behaviours are justified, and that judging others for their actions is pointless. Instead everyone should focus on doing whatever they need to do to take care of themselves.

Personality
Esoi has little regard for mortals and interacts with them very little. When he does interact he is described as incredibly condescending.

Domain
The domain of Night is Esoi's realm. He represents the darkness that comes upon the world every day and occupies half of all time. This period that most people avoid and hide from with lanterns and flames is embraced by his followers as an opportunity to do what they must, without others judging them for their actions.

Worship
Non-followers of Esoi do not commonly pray to him. When they do, it's typically during periods of their lives where they feel at their lowest, and they believe that they must first embrace the night of their life before they can climb back out of it.

Shrines to Esoi are typically hidden and not immediately obvious. Often found inside caves, or deep within alleyways in the city, they are ornately created, but carry no valuable decorations. The exteriors of his temples are quite impressive, often standing much taller than other temples in the area. The interiors though are completely devoid of light, and are quite bare in order to avoid issues with walking in the darkness. Esoi is unique amongst the gods in that nothing is provided to him as gifts. Prayers to Esoi are typically only made during the night, though if a prayer is made during the day, it must be done in pitch black in order to even have the prayer be heard.
