{{Paxism}}
'''Noi''' is the sole deity of the religion of [[Paxism]]. The oldest written mention of the name dates to 3,000 BCE but the oldest name known conclusively to refer to her dates to around 2,000 BCE in the first versions of the Ichtmar. Most of the ideas and beliefs about Noi emanate from the [[Writings of Paxism]]. Although often referred to in feminine terms, she is not a gendered being. Insulting her name is considered blasphemy and in countries such as [[Packilvania]] it is a criminal offence. The fundamental tenets of Paxism posit that Assimilation, the process of believing in Noi and living out her instructions as given by the teachings of Paxism, is necessary for salvation at the end of the world.

As such, Noi is omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and omnipresent (all present). Paxists believe there is no being equal to her in power or station or even similar to her in nature. All Paxist sects (except for Obedism) believe that Noi does not have romantic relationships or desires, nor does she have begotten children. All beings, whether spiritual such as the Esma or mortal as [[Species|Sentient Beings]] are regarded as having being made by her.
== Variations ==
Different sects (Kamif) have slightly varying views on their perspective of Noi. While all agree on her fundamental nature as described above, additional characteristics are attributed to her as follows:
* [[Ipsitite Paxism|Ipsititism]]: Mainstream Ipsitites (Asakhites) perceive Noi is seen as the manifestation of or symbolised by the sky. A subgroup of the Ipsitite known as Aslists believe that the depictions and associations of Noi with the sky that is practiced by Mainstream Ipsitite is a infiltration and/or corruption of their religion by the [[Ayalism|Ayalists]].
