How Primal Magic Affects Nessa And Maiar Religion

[soapboxstage]

So I have been rping as this character who is a maiar priest. Well, due to the recent primal magic rewrite, I have kinda neatly twisted this idea. So, using the primal magic, maiar and slizzar religion and/or followers of nessa have solid religious evidence for their religion. I have been going around trying to convert people to nessa through primal magic. Though, the interesting thing, it is based off being marked by a sea serpent during the marking ritual. So, the religion is basically adopting a common belief of arrogance and greed and want to try to get marked by a sea serpent in primal magic to connect in the religion better. I found this a neat idea and is very fun to roleplay out. I have been going through trying to find maiar and slizzar to convert recently but any race can really adapt to the religion with the magical proof backing it up. Just a neat little idea that has been pretty fun I'd like to make public. @The_Shadow_King3 (basically pope of nessa)
P.S. I just realized! because being marked by a sea serpent requires need for want or injustice upon oneself, it is perfect for maiar and slizzar and the lower races because they can unleash all the feelings they have on the ailor for this!

Except that Primal Magic functions on the souls of Dragons and not Sea Serpents. While some of the Dragons are vaguely more serpent-like, they are still Dragons.

Maiar are actually honored trading partners and allies to the Regalian Navy, but whatever floats your oppression boat I guess.

So that's like a Landkreuzer P. 1000...
The main point basically is that the average regalian doesn't think the giant 6 foot fish beast is a person and OP, for some reason, has a slight obsession with wanting to find a way to turn races that are by design undesirable into a respected caste.

On a side note, what do they actually do for the empire or is it just ''trade partner''?

Maiar fish up valuable pearls that Humans cannot reach, and they also provide a nautical partner because they swim faster than warships, and can attack warships from beneath. That being said, there was a traitor element during the Qadir invasion where Maiar who disagreed aided in the destruction of the harbor fleet.

I am actually refering to "the great sea dragon" talked about in the primal magic page which is why ideology of want and arrogance are dissolved into the religion. @The_Shadow_King3
