Comets in Religion
Comets appear in the holy symbols of two deities and are often seen as a portentous by at least one other.
Holy Symbols
- Dahak: his symbol is a fiery comet.
- Pharasma: her holy symbol is that of a comet whose tail trails out behind it to form a spiral.
Other Comet References in Religion
- Rovagug: Orc followers of Rovagug maintain that Gormuz is the name of the first of the spawn of Rovagug, and that the arrival of a dark comet will signify its return to life.[3]
- Xhamen-Dor: After some calamity for the Great Old One Xhamen-Dor it was imprisoned within a comet. This comet collided with Golarion after its trajectory was altered at the time of Earthfall.[4]
