Atyaism, also known Atyaic and officially known as the Imperial Faith, is a monotheistic religion based on the writings and the philosophy of Atya, the last surviving wolf of the Second Wolf Palatinate before, during and after the Extinction of the Wolves.It also discusses the immediate roots of The Empire and the rise of the Seven Races of the Empire. Atyaism generally believes that Atya is the common ancestor of the Seven Apostles, and utilizes both the older Teremto and Atya's newer writings to provide a religious textual basis. Atyaism also places belief that the covenant of Atya gave moral and cultural standardstothe Seven Apostles,the protigenators that gave rise to the dogs. Atyaism is very diverse and at its core, it is an ethnic religion that often appropriates divisions and differences between some ethnicities. There are two primary traditions that are prevalent in Empire: Orthodoxy and Heterodoxy. The largest denomination of Atyaism is the state religion of the Empire as well, Northern Orthodox Atyaism.

Atyaism religious doctrine is held within the official text called the Gyűjtemény, which is subdivded into smaller texts and traditions. Many Heterodoxic faiths are rooted in tribal traditions or codes that overwrite, discard, or have different interpretations of parts of the Gyűjtemény. Much of the Gyűjtemény is rooted in Tanulas, inscribed oral traditions that made up the basis of Teremtoism.
