Order of the Sun Soul

The Order of the Sun Soul is a monastic order that, during the time of Netheril, worshipped the god Amaunator as the Brotherhood of the Sun. When Netheril fell, the order survived, though their god seemed not to have. Individual monasteries began worshipping other gods. Most took the logical choice to begin worship of Lathander, others Selûne and a minority also began worship of Sune. Over time they themselves forgot Amaunator but the order has always kept the same goal of serving the common folk of Faerûn.

They are a widespread order but their largest monastery is the Monastery of the Sun in Waterdeep. It was set up there because of its proximity to temples of Lathander, Selûne and Sune. The heads of these temples condemn the monastery as heretical due the the abbot Hanor Kichavo's belief that Amaunator has become a tri-partite deity like Angharradh of the Seldarine and that Lathander, Selûne & Sune are his aspects (this is, of course, not true although Kichavo honestly believes it to be). Although his preaching has gained him the ire of these temples, it has made him the most widely recognized and respected person amongst the order as a whole.
