Morozz is a deity of cold and winter, ice and snow and sadness, once worshipped on the continent of Kryia before the Inundation, now rarely.
Morozz appears as a trinity: a dominant androgynous white bear, and a submissive male gray seal and female black penguin.
Morozz's holy symbol is three triangles, and their favored weapon is any spear. Morozz is Lawful Evil, and their followers wear robes of white, gray, and black.
Morozz is indifferent-to-positive about homosexual relations, but a strict moiety system is enforced among their followers. Every follower of Morozz is a member of either the grayseal or blackpenguin moiety, and members of one moiety may only marry members of the other. Abstract tattoos of the appropriate color are de rigeur.
Any individual is the moiety of their opposite-sex parent: sons of blackpenguin mothers and daughters of blackpenguin fathers are grayseals, while sons of grayseal mothers and daughters of grayseal fathers are blackpenguins.
Children resulting from a same-moiety union are considered abominations and cast out into the cold.
Children that have no opposite-sex parent, or whose parents are both opposite-sex, or who are born intersex, are of a rare and prestigious third moiety, whitebear. Whitebears are permitted only to join an existing blackpenguin-grayseal marriage (this triple marriage being the only situation where nonmonogamy is acceptable to Morozz), and the moiety of all children of such a triple union follow the rules as though the whitebear were not present (even if a female whitebear births a son, the son is of the moiety of the other woman in the triple). Lay leaders and high priests are frequently of the whitebear moiety.
