Nanmaunaktut Paganism

Nanmaunaktut Paganism, or Tataksin (demonym Tataksintut) is a polytheistic religion native to Northern Vidina. A less doctrinal religion, it has withstood the test of time due more to it's flexibility than its strength. Under the major banner of Nanmaunaktut Paganism exist many dozens of churches, although they function less in competition or disagreement, but rather as separate areas of donation or focus for individuals to seek different guidance or blessings. Nonetheless, there exist tiers within the churches.

Church of Laqnanaksin
Laqnanaksin are a mythological species of Great Wolf. The Church of Laqnanaksin focuses around the concepts of struggle, domination, and might. Followers of Lagnanaksin typically pursue careers in the Nanmaunaktut Guard. Churches of Lagnanaksin tend to be located near military bases.

Church of the !Polar Bear
The Polar Bear is worshipped as the patron of the hunt and survival. People may donate portions of their hunting yields to the Church of the Polar Bear, in expectation of blessings on future hunts; alternatively, they might offer harvested food to bless a weapon or arrow. Many hunters visit the Church of the Polar Bear before the seasons begin.

Church of the Crow
The Church of the Crow is regarded as the church of Death and Decay. Donations to the Church of the Crow tend to be food or money offered to spare someone's suffering or death, or more morbidly, to wish for one's expedient death. More often, however, the Church of the crow is used as the site for funerals and burials.

Church of the Salmon
The Church of the Salmon is the church of Life and Birth. This follows from the Salmon's frequent sightings in the spring, paralleling the re-birth of the nature, as well as their spawning downstream in the fall coinciding with the fall births of many mammals, including children conceived in the winter before. Sacrifices to the Church of the Salmon tend to be in hopes of fertility; and Salmon is commonly eaten at monthly birth celebrations.

Church of the !Willow Ptarmigan
The Church of the Willow Ptarmigan is the church of the harvest and home; donations to the Willow Ptarmigan tend to take the form of seeds and other small feed, in exchange for blessing of the next harvest or health in the home.

Other churches
Whales, Trees, Ferrets, and Arctic Foxes are all other churches within Nanmaunaktut Paganism.
