'''Korath''' ('''KoHwo''') was the founder of the [[Shu-Korath]] religion.{{glossary ref|Elantris|K}}
Korath adopted the [[Elantrian]] symbol [[Aon]] Omi to represent both his church and its God.{{wob ref|7591}} This was a surprising choice, as many new followers of Shu-Korath considered Aons and the Elantrian religion to be heathen. However, by adopting the symbol, Korath hoped to prove that his church should love everybody. The center of Shu-Korath was eventually moved to Teod, after Korath's death.
 
He had a pendant with the symbol forged, which eventually evolved into the current practice of exchanging Omi pendants at Korathi weddings, as well as the habit of many followers of Shu-Korath wearing the pendants. The pendants eveventuallyeventually became known as Korathi pendants.
