Choice of Rebels Part 1 WIP thread

Thanks, everyone, for the suggestions. Golgot, your mention of the celestial helpfully got me reflecting that the Xthonic religion is really the opposite of celestial – it’s an earth-cult, all stones and dust and fixity.

So I’m thinking that the symbol of the Karagond Hegemony should be an omphalos – the navel or center of the world, which Karagon plainly considers itself to be. It’s drawn in its most simple form as a circle crossed with an X, but can be done in more elaborate forms with multiple crosses or spirals converging on the center. The X and spiral (helix) both have religious connotations.

As for your symbol, if your band has good morale they’ll let you pick the symbol, and otherwise they’ll pick one. :slight_smile:

Some of the options I’ll take away from this suggestion-fest and write into the game are:

The eight-rayed sun.
A broken chain.
A threshing flail.
A bloody hand.

Thanks again, all!
