So Liochant is a follower of Menphia, and I am going to write lore for that religion with comparisons to the worship of Irene and the lore I have created for that one.
Menphia is the Divine Warrior of Fury, meaning she is both passionate and battle hardened. Her followers are very similar, with the expectation is for them to love with all of their hearts and fight with their souls. All is fair in love and war after all.
A major part of her worship is combat. All of her temple residents are trained in combat, one form, or another. Those who are not physically fit enough are taught the combat of words. They are the ones you meet with when you are seeking justice so they can dispense it however they must. Whether it be talking to the other party or sending a temple warrior.
Tattoos are also a major part of her religion, with it being a way to take her worship with a person wherever they might be. Menphia is the Divine Warrior of Tu'la, a place of jungle and desert where any religious iconography could easily be lost or destroyed.
The tattoos also mean that the worshipper can endure. Getting tattoos the OLD fashioned way was not one for the light of heart, and neither is battle. The tattoos associated the most with her worship are a massive tattoo of the sun placed on the back and a sun and moon placed over the heart. The back tattoo is reserved for warriors who succeed in their training, the sun and moon is for those temple wordsmiths who completed their judge training. (Though small sun tattoos are common for worshippers of Menphia to have.) Essentially, the temples of Menphia are made up of warriors and angry lawyers.
These tattoos can cause issues in areas where Irene is worshipped because in that religion, marking your body permanently is scandalous and sacrilegious. This has led to some tension between Irene and Menphia worshippers because a lot of Irene priest are rather stuck up and Menphia priests are angry and petty.
Another issue that is common between the two religions is the fact that the worship of Menphia is a rather closed religion. They do not believe in forcibly converting others, something that the church of Irene is very into. This isn't to say that people are unable to pray and be considered worshippers. It is easy to convert, but fury and passion is not something as easy as peace, love, and life.
That is not to say that Menphia followers are not as passionate as Irene's because they very much are. Fury doesn't come from nowhere, and it is normally born of righteous anger and love. Menphia followers are instructed to love with their whole heart and use that love to fight. There is no better lover than a follower of Menphia because they will avenge you. Very pro vengeance.
The Menphia religion is also very anti modesty, mostly due to the fact it is centered in Tu'la. It is a hot continent where sometimes no clothing is better than any clothing. So it is a cultural thing turned aspect of the religion, though it does cause a lot of issues for when repressed Irene followers go to T*ts-Out-Tu'la.

Eyes of stars AU: so Fire is a guardian right? And the whole next generation goes through some horrible shit, being kicked from their home, moving to the lake, the badger attack, the fox trap, then all the fights that happen before the Great Battle against the Dark Forest comes down...what type of Guardian would Fire be?
Tbh I used Bluestar as an example because I didn't want to use Fire because I'd need to have basically finished the story to know that.
Uh, I will say, usually he's like the flame in a hearth. He keeps the chill of the outdoors away and smells of home and safety. When he agitates, he becomes a little too hot. Not enough to burn, but enough to discomfort. A warning. Occasionally he'll raze through the land, burning whats there to clear the way for new, better growth. This is not always a sign of anger. It hurts and it seems cruel, but in the long run it's for the best.
