Shireroth's diverse society is home to many multicultural faiths, from Jasonia's Soloralism to the gods of Halluci to the austere religion of the Hyperboreans. But the official state religion sanctioned by the Kaisers is and always has been Cedrism, which developed years ago out of a childish love for explosions and fruits and has since evolved a staggering pantheon of gods all the way from Mors, God of Death, to Hypotomoose, God of Miscalculations. The Cedrist Temple, located in Mirioth, is presided over by a High Priest (currently, Greg Russell) who has the final say in all of Shireroth's religious affairs.

In the eastern parts of the Empire (Kildare) Soloralism is the most practised religion, but certain Cedrist traditions (the cult around Sakat, Cedrist God of the Historians) is also widely practised by followers of Soloralism and the other minor religions.
