| The founders of Shekelstan have always been divided in religious questions: While JoxHox gains powers from the dominion of Moloch, Speermen confesses a strong Catholic faith (although he has not even read Augustine). Thus the small Shekelstan Isle quickly became home of two temples: A Pentagram and Sacrificial Altar devoted to Lord Moloch, and the Church of Sainte-Marie. For a small period, Jox was banned for... recieving gifts from Moloch, which meant that Speermen was the sole legislator of the Isle. He banned Moloch worship, but soon allowed it again when JoxHox came back. In the same period the third founder, Krille3, actually did something useful instead and built a harbor on the mesa mainland. | The founders of Shekelstan have always been divided in religious questions: While JoxHox gains powers from the dominion of Moloch, Speermen confesses a strong Catholic faith (although he has not even read Augustine).
