Loa

The Loa are unusual; some are primordial beings worshipped by the earliest human beings, others are less than 300 years old. Such is the way of the voodoo pantheon. Voodoo magic is accompanied by the sound of drums and the smell of rum and cigar smoke. Unforgivable sins are slavery, abusing power, and harming nature. Harmony, order, piety, and vengeance are virtues and the pantheon specific purview is Cheval (the horse).
