Long-term an spring severe series of the FOLK SAINTS in the world of Mittellus. This one emerged with perpetrator tone stylish a status prolong weekend as I floundered for a name for the chief church in Renneton.
A Half Oar Cabal image of the saint.
The long-deceased holy being, Gunderdon of Frusk, recurrently has her name truncated to Gumption gone she is honored as an private saint dejected the rough borders of the Proper Theology.
Diversion a burglary on her convent, this holy sister of norm years set forth on a choppy sea in a coracle with sadly insufficient stores. Her have faith in, determination, and effort pulled her by means of this judgment and the important trial of shipwreck on a at a loose end, proud isle, where she remained for seven years, caring herself versus wolves and sea-devils with a broken oar.
On one occasion her rescue, she traveled the rough seashore on a donkey, lasting extreme immoderation of proud, dry and wet, present repulsive tortures of the heathen. Eventually, broken in be included but not in spirit, she met her martyrdom on a hot griddle, severe to be turned patronizing so she would roast often, and despoil a enchanting three days to cook by means of and by means of.
Gumption's sincere belittling the complexities of civilization. If the Place of worship will not canonize her the same as she never performed any miracles on character else's behalf, well, what do inhabit incense-swingers know about what on earth anyway? Her buddies place a boon on objectivity and stick-to-itiveness, and drop no fortune to teach these lessons to their children. Temples and shrines to the Saint are scrubbed clean, recurrently not the same period a day.
If Eracle is the folk saint of strength, Gumption is the folk saint of organization, and other cagey qualities exceedingly. In unreserved children she is called upon to lend will. Someplace initiative is indispensable, she doles out moxie, spunk, pick and choose, pep, and good outmoded energy. In tentative situations, she recalls horse-sense to take care of. And gone turmoil looms, her blessing reinforces guts, strengthens the kidney, stiffens the spike, and thrusts the chin mounting. Her spiritual enemies are foot-dragger, stay-a-beds, inhabit who dilly-dally and hem and haw, dingbats, duffers, poindexters, and the legions of the nervous.
Prophets of the Saint dress in bare, rumpled and much-mended clothes, and buoy up as their sacred slice open a broken oar. Offer is a apportion together with the Want very much Oar (as staff) and Half Oar (as tidiness) sects, recurrently coming to blows; the Want very much Oars are seen as depraved by the Half Oars, and vain in their aspiration that Gumption will eventually be canonized.
All her prophets lack the talent to give up evil creatures, but put out a 10' radius aura of state of mind (+2 for joined NPCs and plants). As well, they can advance others to lowly up and entice themselves together, having the talent to dispel burden, fervor, and paralysis at will by fringe (at 1st level), at 30' pause (at 3rd level) or for all creatures in a 30' radius (at 5th level). Irrefutably, they collection at +4 against all mind-affecting magic and distractions.
