+Betelgeuse was once a good-aligned god of Life and Order. He helped forge the ring planet [[campaign_settings:arcadia:arcadia|Arcadia]].
 Within his home realm of Dark Twins, he was the leader of his respective pantheon. His brother, [[pantheon:ugsyn|Ugsyn]], began to grow jealous of the love and worship his brother received, and resented his success. Ugsyn left Dark Twins, causing as much damage as possible on his way out; and event known as The Calamity of Dark Twins.

 Followers of Betelgeuse believe in unfettered Arcanical progress at any cost. The greatest virtue of any mortal being is to emulate Betelgeuse's crusade against the calamity, and to work together to overcome death, the personal calamity all mortals face. Betelgeuse encourages disregarding the laws of mortals in the pursuit of ultimate knowlege, and does not encourage or discourage any particular path to achieve this (despite the popularity of necromancy among his followers).
