Role: Arcannis is the strongest advocate of honesty and righteousness amongst the powers. The Righteous One is often worshipped by court judges, litigants, and constabulary officials in lawful societies. As the patron of honorable, even friendly, competition, Arcannis is particularly popular amongst warriors. Though not as prevalent with knightly orders as Throntis the Strong, he is nonetheless held in high regard by many noble brotherhoods and holy sects. The Righteous One is not often worshipped by mercernaries, nor by those who would seek to steal from, or bully, the weak. Priests: Arcannis' priests can be found in most lawful societies, and in many cultures whose courts are either non-existent or corrupt. The Righteous One requires that his priests strive to bring lawful organization and institutions of justice to those societies in need. Younger priests of the Righteous One are often dispatched to small townships, where they serve in a constabulary or judicial capacity, and preach the teachings of Arcannis. Temples: Temples of the Righteous One can be found in many lawful cities and towns, and will rarely be located outside of settlements. They are almost always stone constructs. Most are white marble buildings, and bear strong resemblances to judicial buildings. Darkfuries: Temples and Shrines Copyright � 2002 by Brian K. Moseley. All rights reserved. |
