Yes. The name says it all...Hendrixism. Indeed, it is based off of Jimi Hendrix himself.

During these times, Witzgall has monitored its civilians and their religious beliefs. While many believe Jesus Christ was the messiah, others believe that he was mearly a prophet for God's work.

In Hendrixism, they are both correct. Jesus Christ was one of the messiahs, and he was a prophet for "The Lord." However, Jimi Hendrix was also a prophet and a great messiah.

Jimi Hendrix, one of the greatest guitar players ever, is now known as "The Musical Messiah." Using what is now referred to as "God's Instrument", which is a Fender Stratocaster, Hendrix brought the word of rock and roll to all souls who questioned their lifestyle.

He did not preach God, which was good. Nobody wants to hear a Rock and Roll player preach about Jesus and God and the afterlife and the Bible.

Now, Hendrixism isn't the official religion. However, it is acknowledged. There are currently over 75,000 civilians who "preach the word of Hendrix", such as the teachings of Hey Joe, the First Gospel of Jimi book. The second book, "Purple Haze", teaches the beliefs in science fiction and the dreams Hendrix had about the world.

*Green Sun is now recognizing Hendrixism as a religion. We request that Witzgall send representitives to spread this grand idea.

*There's an attatched DVD of the president, Earnest Equanant, playing some of Hendrix's most famous songs. Quite well, might we add.

We can send roughly 18 "priests" of the religion, which are commonly known as "Little Wings".

Wow. I personally love Hendrix's music, and we have a Church of the Universal Chord, a Who-based religion in Upper Xen. We would like to send men to investigate this new faith.

We shall send a Boeing 747, painted in the respectful orange with an image of our Musical Messiah on its tail, to pick up your investigators.

Also, now viewable in City Square in the Capital of Witzgall, is the following statue:
