Holodomatic School
The Holodomatic School (Literary Kaikian ὁλοδωματικα, "of the Whole Household") is the dominant religious movement in the County Palatine of Kezan. It developed primarily out of the Kaikian Antican Tradition but was influenced by other regional Antican traditions, such as Providentialism and Aryashti Sattva. The presence of Elwynnese in Kezan also introduced ideas from their own religion religion. The Holodomatic School emerged among the refugees of the Kaikian Diaspora following their resettlement in Kezan. It has since spread beyond and taken root in other communities in parts of Shireroth and Natopia.

Organization
Antecedents and Influences
A majority of the population of Kezan is Kaikian Antican in origin, bringing their religious traditions with them. Many in Kaikias -- as well as many non-Kaikian Anticans who joined the diaspora -- also belonged to a mainland religious tradition. When they arrived in Kezan as refugees, they met Aryashti Anticans, who had already been stablished within Shireroth and were helping to facilitate their resettlement (some even settling themselves), and Elwynnese political and economic advisers and their families. The people who would go on to found the Holodomatic School interacted with these different peoples and their different understandings of the world and the nature of the divine. In some cases, ideas were adopted, while, in other cases, the contrary position was taken.
