Since ancient times, the moon has been worshipped as a sacred symbol that holds unnatural powers. Some believe the moon is responsible for everything ranging from mood swings to the passage of time. The following teachings have been found to be the most consistent throughout the ages and across many different religions.
The divine embodiment of the moon - the Lunar Goddess Luna. In contrast to the masculine deity of the sun, Luna is often depicted as a motherly figure. Luna's worshippers have an affinity for the night and often hold various ceremonies dedicated to Her in sacred moonlight. Historically, these rites have consisted of elegant banquets and festivals that last till dawn.
In many cultures, it is customary for moon worshippers to craft and wear masks to these celebrations. The designs of these masks vary wildly and often include elaborate, colorful designs.

Some religions believe in alternate worlds that exist beyond our own. It's said that, through the moon's various magical properties, one may travel to these strange, alien realms through devout worship of the moon. These worlds, referred to as the Parallelos by some, are believed to contain secrets that unlock abilities such as teleportation, astral projection, and even immortality.
Among the many mysterious oddities found on the moon's surface, none is moreso than the creatures known as "The Faceless". Not that different from the concept of extraterrestrials, The Faceless are strange creatures that are said to live upon and worship the moon. It's belived that these hivemind beings have the potential to tap into Luna's vast reservoir of spiritual energy and preform what can only be described as miracles.
These Faceless creatures are rumored to occasionally descend to Earth and communicate with a few lucky chosen humans every year on a sacred day.
