So I'm working on a reverse demon cult for my home game that is meant to fill a lot of the same roles as a demon cult (secretive fringe group of social deviants that worship a powerful supernatural entity) but within a race that already has a propensity for worshiping evil deities. So think of like an angel cult in a drow clan or a group or a wild azata hobgoblins.
For this one I'm trying to work on a mystery cult for Orc society that is focused on everything Orcs aren't. Think peace, community, and femininity with a slant towards law. The problem is I don't know of any printed Empyreal Lords that really fit all 4 of those marks off hand but I've come here to ask if anyone here knows of any Empyreal Lords that fit the bill.
Not an empyreal lord, but the dwarf goddess Folgrit fits fairly well and would certainly be an audacious choice for orcs.

Lol yeah that would be pretty funny lol but I'm looking more for a classic choice of some kind of powerful outsider not already a part of a pantheon like a demon lord or archdevil. Something that is an outsider 1st and a patron of a people second in a persons mind.
All that being said though I'll go check her out.
Perhaps a heretical branch of Dretha? She is the orc goddess of fertility and tribes and already has the community domain.
Thisamet sounds like a possibility. CG azata of celbrations, feasts, and holidays. Has the community domain (slant towards law?), sacred animal is a cow (peace?). Name might be feminine, don't know.
Also Lythertida the Voiceless Tragedy, NG empyreal lord of idealism, young death, and potential. Has the community domain, favored weapon is unarmed strike, and symbol is an eye with a tear.

Lythertida is pretty cool choice wise and it getting closer but I still off. Something with that focus on community, law, good, and peace. Falayna is pretty close too but again doesn't meet a lot of the criteria i.e. the peace focus and community aspects I'm aiming for.
Lorris is an Empyreal Lord focused on charity. Other than that you've pretty much exhausted your options.
