Hoar is the vengeful deity of retribution invoked by those who seek to repay an eye for an eye. He is a moody deity, prone to violence and witha penchant toward bitter humor.

The church of Hoar is composed primarily of itinerant wanderers who travel from town to town agreeing to pray for Hoar's intercession on behalf of one who seeks or fears vengeance for some attack in exchange for a small fee.

Hoar's clergy also seeks out victims of injustice, hear their stoires, evaluate the veracity of their accounts, and track down the perpetrators in order to inflict a fitting form of punishment. No injustice is too large or too small for revenge to be sought and a fitting punishment meted out, earning the church of Hoar the ire of town watches and Tyrists alike as well as the adulation of the downtrodden.

This is a celebration with feasts of game, bread, fruits and mead, marking the defeat of the Untheric war god Ramman.

11th of Marpenoth, The Impending Doom

An event observed with daylong ceremonies of rumbling drums, vigorous oaths and exhaustive acts of purification. It celebrates justices yet to be meted out, revenges yet to be carried through with, and good deeds that call to the celebrants to be remembered.
