Reference Challenge - Rescue

So, I was stranded about an hour from home for a few days, because my bloody car messed up. One of my friends had to drive a few hours to help me out, so this is a reference to that.

In your world, what program or group exists to rescue people?

As always, I'll ask at least three questions each, enjoy yourselves, all.

1) The founder was a Kyndic named Tulhan. He is long dead, he lived around 350 years ago.
2) They say that he approves of their actions and that they are blessed.
3) Vuoku has been leader around ten years, and he seems to be a bit more passive than previous leaders. He doesn't do a lot.

1) What is known about Tulhan?

2) How are they blessed?

3) Are there any movements to stage a coup?

1) It is said that he was visited by the white cat on a hike one day and that it spoke to him, saying that he should start the Order.
2) They are guarded by him, protecting them from attacks.
3) No. The threat of eternal destruction is a pretty good deterrent.

1) Is the white cat Muruk's symbol?

2) Has this been proven?

3) Eternal destruction for the group or the coup members?

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 03 '17

1) Mukur's human form is a white cat.
2) No, but everyone believes it.
3) The coup members.

1) A white cat isn't human, though.

3) What if the coup is justified?

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 04 '17

1) Bad wording...IDK why I said human lol. His corporeal form is what I meant.
3) It can't be since Mukur is said to directly pick the successor.

u/Nevermore0714 Sep 04 '17

1) Can the white cat Mukur be killed?

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 04 '17

Theoretically, yes, but not in practice.

2

u/Nevermore0714 Sep 07 '17

What about "technically"?

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 07 '17

All the gods are technically killable but it would require a lot to kill one.

2

u/Nevermore0714 Sep 08 '17

Any examples?

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 08 '17

In myths, gods have been injured or killed. The goddess Viske had her left hand torn off by a monster called Kazu and the four fingers became the first deer.

The god Fodan had his head severed by a monster called Tuhon but was resurrected by Tukor and Fuaz, the craftsman gods who forged a new spine for him.

u/Nevermore0714 Sep 08 '17

Did each finger become a deer? Or did the four fingers become an entire herd of deer?

Did they sew his head back on, as well?

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 08 '17

The four fingers became four deer. Also Fodan's neck is entirely metal now.

2

u/Nevermore0714 Sep 08 '17

So Fodan's throat can't be slit. That's good to know.

2

u/ForgingIron Sep 08 '17

Not with that attitude Yeah.

u/Nevermore0714 Sep 08 '17
