New Deity - Alia - Goddess of Beauty and Serenity

Another Deity in the Evosan Pantheon I came up with.

Since I'm using this in a Ferunian pantheon, I've not included any spells which come with that resource book. This is because I originally only wrote these for my benefit and as such, didn't need them as I already had the Faerun book in front of me whilst playing anyway...

So...umm...sorry.

As usual, please buy the books if you see someting out of them you like.

Spell Resistance: Yes (Harmless).

You draw forth the material essence of joy from a living creature experiencing great bliss.
This physical manifestation of joy, called Ambrosia, can be used in the creation of good magic items, as a special spell component, or as a drug-like substance (with no addictive qualities).

The caster draws Ambrosia from the target and contains it within a tiny receptacle, such as a flask or vial. Ambrosia can only be dawn from a blissful creature; how the creature achieves this state of bliss can vary from one individual to the next. For example, Distilled Joy can be cast on a deliriously lovestruck character, a dryad dreaming near her tree, an artist crafting his life's msterpiece, or a character experiencing a moment of rapture or undiluted sexual pleasure.

Good spellcasters can use Ambrosia in magic item creation. Each dose provides the equivelent of 2 experience points needed to create the item. A dose of Ambrosia can also be used as an optional spell component (See below...)

A living creature that drinks a ose of Ambrosia experiences a soothing sensation that wipes away and minor aches and pains, takes the edge off of grief and sadness, and cures 1 point of damage. These positive sensations and emotions persist for 1d4+1 hours.

!!!AMBROSIA RULES!!!

Some spell components are optional (and not specified as a component in any spell description). These components sometimes increase the potency of a good spell and the component is consumed whether it helps or not.

You can only use one optional component in the casting of a good spell, so using two doses of Ambrosia, or a dose of Ambrosia and another optional component (you'll have to get the book to find out about more of these wonderful things ^_^) wont improve your chances.

As with any spell component, you must be touching a optional good spell component and have it displayed prominentely for it to function. These optional components can only be applied to spells with the good descriptor.

Spell components that are derived from the body of a good creature must generally be given frely, not taken from a dead creature. Killing a good creature in order to harvest it's parts or organs is an evil act, and often inflicts a curse or affliction upon the perpetreator, at the DM's discretion. Though these items must be given freely, they can still be sold and thus have suggested market prices. Most oft he time, however, they are given as gifts and not stolen.

- Ambrosia 200gp Value.

A mysterious substance made from distilled joy, Ambrosia is a celestial food, the heavenly sustenance of some gods. Created by means of a Distilled Joy spell, Ambrosia can be used as a special spell component, in addition to the other uses mentioned in the spell description.

As an optional component, Ambrosia automatically increases the effective caster level of a single good spell by +2. This increase doesn't stack with previous applications of distilled joy or any other bonuses to effective caster level.






!!!REDEMPTION RULES!!!

When an evil enemy throws down his arms and pleads for mercy, a good character faces a host of new issues, sometimes enough to make her wis hthe enemy had simply fought to the bitter end.

Justice demands mercy, so killing an enemy who surrenders is out of the question for a character pursuing the exalted path of good. Righteousness also encourages the virtue of prudence, and a prudent character certainly recognises that an evil person requesting mercy is quite possibly hoping for an opportunity to kill her when her back is turned.

However, a character with many ranks in Diplomacy can attempt to turn a hostile character friendly on a lasting basis, whether to extract needed information or to convert them to their side.

At a DM's discression, good treatment of a prisoner can grant a circumstance bonus to the check, from +2 (minimum standard of care that a good character would expect) to +6 (for truley exceptional treatment).

To redeem a prisoner to the ways of good, firstly the evil prisoner must be treated with exceptional care and respect - far better than the prisoner knows he would treat the characters if the situation were reversed. initially, an evil character might greet this treatment with scorn and look for opportunities to escape.

When he finds the character's gentle but firm, kind but smart in their defenses, he gains a new degree of respect for them, gleaning at least a glimpse of an idea that one needn't be cruel to be strong.

Secondly, the captors must display a willingness to forgive the evil that the prisoner has done. If their convresation is laced with talk of punishing their captive, or gleeful anticipation of the punishment he will receive when they turn him over to the authorities, he sees little purpose in even contemplating a change of heart, instead directing all of his energies towards escaping the grim fate they have planned for him. He can only be redeemed if there is the possibility for forgiveness.

Third, a character must spend at least an hour evey day with the prisoner, encouraging him to talk about the evil he has done, and in turn describing the benefits and rewards of the life of Good. Thi task is best performed by a cleric who can speak with authority, not only about moral forgiveness, but also divine mercy. Often it is important for a villain to know that the deities of good will welcome him as a worshipper.

Each day this conversation takes place, even if it begins rather one-sided, the good character makes a Diplomacy check. The evil character then makes an opposed Will save, adding his level as a bonus on the saving throw against a DC equal to the good character's Diplomacy check result.

The DM can give the same circumstance bonus on the Diplomacy checks as for checks made to interrogate prisoners.

Creatures whose alignments are listed as "always" a specific alignment, and characers who would lose class abilities if they changed alignment (including evil clerics and blackguards) gain a +4 to their Will saves.

Outsiders with the Evil subtype are immune to redemption in this maner. Neutral (neither good nor evil) characters take a -2 penalty on their Will saves. Creatures who have been enthralled by an Emmisary of Barachiel (you'll have to read the book - The Book of Exalted Deeds) or who have been subject to a Vision of Heaven spell take penalties on their Will saves.

If an evil character fails 7 saving throws in a row at any point during the process of redemption, the evil component of their alignment changes to neutral. If a neutral character (including a former evil character who has already failed his save 7 times) fails seven sving throws in a row, his alignment changes to good. The change is permentant.

Redeemed villains have no special link to the good characters who facilitated their redemption. They might choose to continue assosiating with te PCs, or they might strike out on their own, the DM decides. However they are always friendly to the characters and feel that they owe a debt of gratitude to them, which the PCs can collect sooner or later.
