Appearance

Tempus Aevum has no physical form, and has never appeared to anyone, ever. However, worshippers claim to have interacted with the Archfey in the form of false memories of events or conversations that happened differently than remembered.

Doctrine

While most worship of gods and archfey focus on why, the worship of Tempus Aevum is preoccupied with when.  As an eternal force stretching from the beginning of time to its end, this archfey is seen by outsiders as aloof and uncaring.  This is not true, but the scope of the care is different.  Within the everbranching continuum of events, certain decisions must be made to cause the unknown outcome that the archfey desires.  The more pivotal the decision, the more likely they will intervene.  Some worshippers claim that there is some final beneficial outcome that everything is leading toward, while others claim the only desired outcome is the continuance of time itself, and that any ending is bad by the simple virtue of it being an ending.

Worshippers are the least likely to advocate killing, as the dead can no longer make decisions that drive continuity, and are most likely to preserve life.  Killing someone not only destroys who they are, but also destroys anything they might have become or accomplished. This puts them, more than any other group, eternally at odds with the Darkness who is the end and absence of everything.

Worshippers of Tempus Aevum are often accomplished seers, and actively see signs and portents in even the most mundane things.
