Shu-Dereth is one of the major religions on Sel. Shu-Dereth is an offshoot of Shu-Keseg, but focuses on the equality of obedience, rather than the equality of mind. Shu-Dereth is based on the worship of Jaddeth, a God who is said to slumber in the earth, waiting for a time when the whole world worships him to return and rule the world. Shu-Dereth is a highly militaristic religion, and is based on a regimented ranking, known as the Great Chain. The leader of Shu-Dereth, who acts both as Jaddeth's prophet and regent during his entrapment in the earth, takes the name Wyrn as a title upon his ascension to the position.

Followers of Shu-Dereth are known as Derethi.
