The Faith is the official religion of Gransys.
Overview[]
The Faith admit a god which they refer to as "The Maker" - no other gods or demigods are worshipped, and their places of worship lack cultic figures, icons, or idols.
Cults such as Salvation, and old forms of worship such as earth god worship are rejected by the Faith
Gran Soren Cathedral in Gran Soren is the highest ecclesiastical building in Gransys. There is also a Village Chapel in Cassardis, and an Abbey served by nuns - the abbey also functions as an orphanage.
It seems the Faith on Gransys is subordinate to that on the Mainland - the main place of the Faith there is the Grand Cathedral in Auldring on the mainland. The Great Library in Auldring seems to also be associated with the faith.

Notes[]
- See also: Dragon's Dogma World and Lore
- The Faith's 'Maker' may be intended to be the Seneschal, though it is unclear how any person could have seen or met such a figure.
- The Cursed Carving (favored as a gift by members of the Faith), as well as Gold Idols and lesser similar objects also may be representations of the Maker or Seneschal - notably the idols have the symbol for Holy as a large badge or shield on the figure's chest.
- Imagery associated with the Faith or Maker often seems to be associated with the sun, or 'divine light', for example Orilux Shield; holy symbols such as found on Set of Priest Vestments or the glyph associated with the Holy element also resemble a rayed sun.
- The Faith in the world of Dragon's Dogma shows many characteristics of traditional Christian religion in Europe - the churches take a similar form - but lack any reference to Jesus. Its belief system seem similar, with a rejection of other cults, and a single God or God figure.
- In reference to the 'Witch of the Woods' Quina states that she "[..] was once friend to our village. But with the Faith's arrival she fled here for being branded heretic. It's been an age since the witch last visited our village" - suggesting that the people of Cassardis once did not follow the Faith, but only in distant memory.
- The Faith's 'Maker' may be their conception of the Seneschal.
