An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/aVmgnqnQmCM0mj3V6fgF4Q==, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The Drowned God's followers believe that the Drowned God died and was reborn anew from the waves, thereby making him immortal, as what is dead can never die. These followers believe that a man can attain salvation by being drowned in salt water and later resuscitated, going through the same process of rebirth as their god. They are therefore called Drowned Men and wear robes of roughspun seaweed, stained with salt. They believe that when righteous men die, they are summoned to the Drowned God's watery halls, where they will feast forever beneath the waves.

  • The Drowned God is the deity worshiped on the Iron Islands. Together with the North, where the worship of the Old Gods of the Forest remains strong, the Iron Islands are one of the few regions of Westeros not abiding by the main religion of the Seven Kingdoms, the Faith of the Seven. Depictions of the Drowned God, such as statues, are sometimes made by assembling pieces of driftwood into a vaguely humanoid shape with upraised arms - or by finding a single piece of driftwood which somewhat resembles a humanoid shape.
