Fistianism

The term Fistian applies to both a culture and a religion originating on the Isle of Fist. It is a religion that follows the teachings of the hero Fistemes. Fistemes was a warrior prophet of The Game Face and acted as his inquisitor chief in Nuralia. He fought bravely in many battles and almost destroyed the great Emiliest Cult in 1215 Ancient Period. The Game Face rewarded Fistemes for his loyalty in 1251 and told him of the fall of the Faggocian Empire that would follow 2 years later and usher in the Kingdom Period. The Game Face told Fistemes to gather 500 citizens in order to continue civilization on a strange island off of the northern coast of Nuralia. So in 1252, Fistemes set out with his people to the Isle of Fist.

History of Fist and the founding of Fistianism
When Fistemes and his new Fistian people arrived on Fist, they expected further guidance from the Game Face; however, none was given. The people built a Temple of Game Faceia on the island to pray to the Game Face for assistance, but their prayers were not answered. Fistemes then began the construction of the city of Fisticuff, which would later become the center of commerce and trade for Nuralia. Just outside the city walls the great Statue at Fisticuff was constructed. This was a statue of the Game Face and was used as a sort of S.O.S. symbol to let the Game Face know they needed his help creating their civilization. Fistemes grew angry and impatient with the Game Face
