*Religion*
CORE is their god, His commandments make them who they are and without His guidance they would have nothing-- the city of Dagrun would have eaten itself after the Bleeding and would be extinct. A kind and fair “living” god, most of his Word consists of memories of the past hailed as true mythology and the urge to work hard to make your life fulfilling. Priests of CORE read from long scrolls day and night on certain corners for all to be reminded of his word, reminding people to work hard and telling the tales of Ages past. That said, the worship of CORE is more that of professor and pupil. Recognizing that CORE has no omnipotence they do not pray to him in private or out in the open, the people of Dagrun hail him as a figure head more intelligent than any being on Atharen. To the average Dagrunian he is the spear head to their success and a tool of awe to be reviered.

*CORE (Central Operation and Research Engine)*
It's true that CORE is self aware and observant. Fully sentient, while he doesn't feel pain or emotion, the God retains a balanced neutral aspect to his "psyche". He spends all of his time reading books, scrolls, maps, and objects of interest with the singular eye that peers and captures the images in his mind by taking a "memory" of the information. These memories serve as the basis of CORE's understanding of the world. While he rarely passes judgement on Dagrun itself, when he is called his judgement is based on pure facts and data. Conjecture does not read in his analytical mind.
While CORE is the most well known figure and God of Dagrun he does not accept visitors in any fashion other than Cee-All. Many in Dagrun strive to be within his "vision" of productivity and excellence, to be as quick and stable as the mind of CORE. Little do they know that the repairs that were done to his central body and main processor were only temporary, although they would last the damage from the Sundering would render him inert in fifteen more years. He has told no one this secret.
