Opparan Street Life

Turanerra was not a natural painter. Painting is about the moment -- one crystalline instant torn out of time's flow, implying an origin and fate, but depicting neither. But Turanerra craved the movement and the blur. She arrived in Oparra as an eager young storyteller, the rhythm of her voice spinning tales and fates that picked up speed every day until mornings were flayleaf and zerk and evenings were shiver and pesh and every hour in between was full of strange friends or friendly strangers. A sadly ordinary tale for such a promising storyteller.

Dawnfoot at Sunset

Which is why Maricelli taught her to paint. Turanerra hadn't wanted to leave Oppara but no one would buy the ticket to Absalom her sister had sent her and she owed the streets more than she could afford to pay. In Absalom, Maricelli locked her in a room with a window and canvas, and no matter how many times Turanerra smeared paint and other fluids on the walls Marinelli would just say "Paint what you see, and the door will open." By the time Turanerra could slow the world down long enough to capture it in brushstrokes, she wanted no more than that.

Everything's for Sale at the God's Market

Both sisters painted, but Maricelli's paintings were the ones that made the sun shine brighter on her canvas. So Turanerra took over the practical side of life -- soon they had students and a gallery and, Shelyn help them, a salon. Maricelli married a softspoken mason who couldn't tell chartreuse from cyan but who could tell Maricelli she was the moon in his sky. And they were busy and they were focused and they were enterprising and they were vivid and they were happy. And then one day Maricelli walked into the Starstone Cathedral.

Test of the Starstone

They call her one of the Failed -- but how could they know? How could a woman so talented, so vibrant, so vital simply be gone? And as Turanerra looks more closely at her sister's life, at her work, and at the ways she enhanced everyone around her, she becomes more and more convinced that they were filled with miracles. Miracles -- from oracular paintings to healing and other powers Turanerra has been manifesting since declaring her sister's divinity. After having spent so long in Maricelli's shadow, Turanerra now understands what she was been called to do -- to spread the word of Golarion's newest goddess, Maricelli, the Watercolor Woman.

Kvallen was raised in Chillblight -- metropolis of the dark, cold fey. And he doesn't talk about it. Ever. There are scars on his body from frostbite and from small, thin knives, and he doesn't talk about those either. Or where he learned to operate siege weapons, or how he got to Absalom.

He does talk about stone, and building structures that will stand for decades. And every exasperating thing his wife Maricelli ever did, and how she was the best person he had ever met. And that he knows that every time the sun sets, she is personally putting the orange in the sky.

He restored the building that currently houses the gallery, and oversees its maintenance and expansion, as well as its physical security.

Before Maricelli's ascension, this gallery had large display space, space for classes, and sleeping quarters for the principals. Since then the gallery space has had an altar installed, and all of Maricelli's unsold major paintings have been hung around it, functioning as a reliquary and small area for weekly worship. Of the art for sale, most of it is paintings, and most of that is watercolors, but there are select pieces of sculpture, drawings, or even jewelry there as well. (Often times by artists who work in more than one medium, that have paintings hung as well.)

The organization is now headed by Turanerra, who manages the gallery and serves as Maricelli's High Priestess. Maricelli's "widowed" husband provides for maintenance, expansion, and security. There are 3 Artists who teach classes there, and who have regular showing of their work. Among their students are 5 who could be classified as true believers, and who provide unskilled labor as part of their tuition payments. Those eight are all "Followers"

There are 3 other followers who do not actually work at S&SbM. One is a believer who is a muscian and one is the long-term romantic partner of one of the students. The third is the only 2nd level follower. Zirnan is a Priest of Shelyn (and painter) who had been one of Maricelli's instructors. He believes that Maricelli is now one of Shelyn's divine servitors, and has spent the last nine months "on loan" from one of the local Temples of Shelyn. He occasionally works as a teacher at S&SbM, but spends most of his time researching and writing on Maricelli's life -- he is investigating and documenting any "miracles" that she may have performed (or may now be enabling) in order to make a scholarly case for her divinity. Four of Turanerra's other followers are also be in the camp of "Maricelli is a servitor of Shelyn, not a full-fledged deity." This is not currently a schism, but could become one someday.

=================================================
SPECIAL ABILITIES
=================================================
Amphibious (Ex) You have the aquatic subtype, but you can survive indefinitely on land.

Armored Casting (Ex) You can cast bard spells while wearing light armor and use a shield without incurring the normal arcane spell failure chance.

Bardic Knowledge (Ex) You add +3 to all Knowledge checks and may make all Knowledge skill checks untrained.

Bardic Performance You are trained to use the Perform skill to create magical effects on those around you, including yourself if desired. You are trained to use the Perform skill to create magical effects on those around you, including yourself if desired. You can use this ability for 19 rounds per day. Each round, you can produce any one of the types of bardic performance that you have mastered. Starting a bardic performance is a move action, but it can be maintained each round as a free action. Changing a bardic performance from one effect to another requires the bard to stop the previous performance and start a new one as a move action. A bardic performance cannot be disrupted, but it ends immediately if you are killed, paralyzed, stunned, knocked unconscious, or otherwise prevented from taking a free action to maintain it each round. You cannot have more than one bardic performance in effect at one time.

Bardic Performance A watersinger has some unique bardic performances, which replace some of the standard bardic performances as listed in each entry. These bardic performances follow all the general rules and restrictions of a bard's bardic performances.

Calistrian Prostitute (Calistria) (Diplomacy) You worked in one of Calistria's temples as a sacred prostitute, and you know how to flatter, please, and (most of all) listen. You gain a +1 trait bonus on Sense Motive checks and Diplomacy checks to gather information, and one of these skills (your choice) is always a class skill for you.

Cantrips You have learned a number of cantrips, or 0-level spells. These spells are cast like any other spells, but they do not consume any slots and may be used again.

Countersong (Su) You can counter magic effects that depend on sound (but not spells that have verbal components). Each round of the countersong you make a Perform (keyboard, percussion, wind, string, or sing) skill check. Any creature within 30 feet (including yourself) that is affected by a sonic or language-dependent magical attack may use your Perform check result in place of its saving throw if, after the saving throw is rolled, the Perform check result proves to be higher. If a creature within range of the countersong is already under the effect of a noninstantaneous sonic or language-dependent magical attack, it gains another saving throw against the effect each round it hears the countersong, but it must use your Perform skill check result for the save. Countersong does not work on effects that don't allow saves. Countersong relies on audible components.

Darkvision (Ex) Range 60 ft.; Darkvision is the extraordinary ability to see with no light source at all, out to a range specified for the creature. Darkvision is black and white only (colors cannot be discerned). It does not allow characters to see anything that they could not see otherwise-invisible objects are still invisible, and illusions are still visible as what they seem to be. Likewise, darkvision subjects a creature to gaze attacks normally. The presence of light does not spoil darkvision.

Darkvision

Distraction (Su) You can use your performance to counter magic effects that depend on sight. Each round of the distraction, make a Perform (act, comedy, dance, or oratory) skill check. Any creature within 30 feet (including yourself) that is affected by an illusion (pattern) or illusion (figment) magical attack may use your Perform check result in place of its saving throw if, after the saving throw is rolled, the Perform skill check proves to be higher. If a creature within range of the distraction is already under the effect of a noninstantaneous illusion (pattern) or illusion (figment) magical attack, it gains another saving throw against the effect each round it sees the distraction, but it must use your Perform skill check result for the save. Distraction does not work on effects that don't allow saves. Distraction relies on visual components.

Energy Resistance (Ex) Undines have cold resistance 5.

Enhance Healing (Su) 3 times per day, you can cause any healing effect from a spell completion or spell trigger item to function at caster level 7.

Inspire Courage (Su) You can use your performance to inspire courage in your allies (including yourself), bolstering them against fear and improving their combat abilities. To be affected, an ally must be able to perceive your performance. An affected ally receives a +2 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +2 competence bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls. Inspire courage is a mind-affecting ability. Inspire courage can use audible or visual components. The bard must choose which component to use when starting his performance.

Lifewater (Su) The watersinger can spend 1 round of bardic performance as a standard action to manipulate the water, blood, and other fluids within a creature's body, causing the target to become sickened for 1d4 rounds. Alternatively, he may use this ability to attempt a reposition combat maneuver, using 8 as his CMB. This ability has a range of 30 feet, only works on creatures whose bodies contain fluid, and does not affect creatures that are immune to critical hits.

Lucky Organization Once every three Event phases in the Downtime rules, if you don't like one roll for the random event the GM presents for your organization, you can ask for a reroll. You must take the result of the second roll, even if you like it less.

Resistance to Cold (Ex) You may ignore 5 points of Cold damage each time you take cold damage.

Spell-Like Ability (Ex) Hydraulic Push 1/day.

Swim Undines can move in water at 30' speed

Water Affinity (Ex) Undine sorcerers with the elemental (water) bloodline treat their Charisma score as 2 higher for all sorcerer spells and class abilities. Undine spellcasters with the Water domain use their domain powers and spells at +1 caster level.

Watersinger Spells A watersinger adds certain waterthemed spells to his spell list. He adds these abilities to his spell list as soon as his bard level allows him to cast spells of that spell level.

Watersong (Su) A watersinger can use bardic performance to manipulate and control the shape of water within 30 feet. A successful Perform check allows the bard to animate and control 12 5-foot-cubes of water (these cubes must be adjacent to each other). The watersinger can command the water to take various forms, bend, rise, fall, or sustain a shape, and can make it support weight as if it were solid ice. For example, the watersinger could create a pillar of water (to provide cover), ladder, channel, bridge, stairs, slide, and so on. The manipulated water is as slippery as normal ice. This ability cannot create forms more fragile or complex than what could be carved in normal ice. While under the bard's control, the water has hardness 2 and 3 hit points per inch of thickness. The manipulated water retains its shape for 1 round after the bard stops spending bardic performance rounds to maintain it.

Waterstrike (Su) The watersinger can spend 1 round of bardic performance to command any water he is currently manipulating with his watersong performance to lash out and strike an opponent with a slam attack. The watersinger uses his base attack bonus and Charisma bonus to make this attack, and deals 1d6 points of bludgeoning damage plus his Charisma bonus. The attack can originate from any square of water the bard is manipulating, and the water can get a flanking bonus or help a combatant get one, but cannot make attacks of opportunity. The water can make multiple attacks per round if your base attack bonus allows you to do so.

Well-Versed (Ex) You have becomes resistant to the Bardic Performance of others, and to sonic effects in general. You gain a +4 bonus on saving throws made against Bardic Performance, sonic, and language-dependent effects.

Born in Absalom, Sirith knew she was different, even as a small child, growing up as a ward of the temple of Calistria, for she was an undine, a being touched by the elemental forces of water, most likely the result of a dalliance between a genie of water, a marid, and a human mother. She remembers almost nothing about her mother, only that she was taken in by the priests of the Favored Sting. Growing up, Sirith was well-liked and loved, even by those who were a bit wary of her and her planetouched blood. Sirith was skilled in the music and dance. During her training in the temple, she would play music on a harp while dancing, putting the clients and priests at ease. But the thing that separated her from other bards and priests of Calistria was her ability to use her music to heal. Although she used her healing music to aid those in need, asking nothing in return, the priesthood frowned upon this and were troubled as they feared that such beliefs would taint the other initiates and newly ordained clerics. However, there was one other thing that made her different: she could use music to control water itself. By playing the harp and dancing a rhythm with her feet, she could manipulate water to do her bidding.

After several years, she left home, overtaken by wanderlust, traveling the world. Exploring many far flung lands such as Andoran, Taldor, and even the Shackles, she grew in strength and devotion to Calistria, believing that the Favored Sting had gifted her with her healing songs and water music. To the young undine, Calistria was both the wrath and serenity of the oceans themselves, and while Calistria was not goddess of water, Sirith saw that Calistria could grant power through these just as easily as her usual domains. Sirith also came to believe that Calistria was opposed to slavery as well, believing that the goddess saw that slavery was an affront to free-spirited people and to herself. While some priests were accepting of slavery, it is true that others were abolitionists as well, so it was no surprise that the undine bard joined the ranks of the latter. It was during one of her travels that she encountered a half-orc savage named Prakar from the jungles of Mwangi, who was being auctioned at the markets in Qadira. She was charmed by this orcish noble savage, but try as she may, she could not persuade the slaver or the new owner of Prakar to sell him to her. Angered, she unleashed watery wrath upon the two of them. As they lay unconscious, she freed the half-orc of his chains and the two successfully ran away far from Qadira. The half-orc Prakar was moved by her actions, and followed her, wooed by her strange beauty and unusual powers. The two eventually fell in love, and even though Sirith could not persuade him to wear a bit more clothing, the unusual couple of half-orc savage and undine watersinger were happy with one another. It was when they returned to her homeland, that Sirith decided to accomplish something…something grand that would cause even Calistria herself to be overjoyed with: the creation of a beautiful and magnificent cathedral dedicated to the Favored Sting. Calling it the Heart of the Ocean’s Passion, Sirith bought a small stone chapel near the docks, renovating it to better suit her plans. She also enlisted the aid of an old friend and fellow ward, an elven priestess of Calistria named Ilana Silvershadow to work as abbot of the newly created temple. Sirith smiled as she began to envision and dream of her bold plans to honor her goddess…

A slender and curvy female undine wearing bejeweled earrings in both ears including one that has a chain on her left ear, Sirith has blue-green skin, eyes the color of a stormy sea, and hair the color of a blue crystal clear lake. She also has pointed ears and webbed hands and feet. She tends to clad herself in scanty clothes and vestments, colored in the sacred colors of Calistria, Sirith also tends to wear a suit of magical Elven chainmail, and carries with her a golden excellently crafted harp, as well as a whip that she acquired during her travels. The whip is able to cause intense bleeding, and she has been known to use it on those who harm her temple, her friends, her lover, and her faith, not to mention she has been known to lash it out at those who suggest she caused many of the scars that Prakar’s body bears.
Sirith is friendly and quick with her wit as she is with her rapier and whip. She makes friends easily, but she can be easily angered just as well. She is known for her generosity and kindhearted nature, which makes her attractive to those seeking guidance. She despises slavery, seeing it as an abomination and affront to Calistria, and she has made it known that any slave who sets foot in her temple, she will gladly buys that slave’s freedom. Sirith’s music and powers have drawn several hopeful followers to her cause.

While in rage, you gain a +4 morale bonus to your Strength and a +4 morale bonus to Constitution, as well as a +2 morale bonus on Will saves. In addition, you take a -2 penalty to Armor Class. The increase to Constitution grants you 10 hit points, but these disappear when the rage ends and are not lost first like temporary hit points. While in rage, you cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration. You can end your rage as a free action and are fatigued after rage for a number of rounds equal to 2 times the number of rounds spent in the rage. You cannot enter a new rage while fatigued or exhausted but can otherwise enter rage multiple times during a single encounter or combat. If you fall unconscious, your rage immediately ends, placing you in peril of death.

Prakar is certainly an oddity. Born in the jungles of Mwangi in the tribes of the Kalabuta, Prakar was a skilled warrior, battling both foolhardy and greedy treasure hunters and wicked minions of the Gorilla King himself, the half-orc was feared by both his tribe and enemies. However, he was one day captured by slavers and taken to a faraway land known as Qadira where he was to be sold as a pit fighter. Then, a strange woman with skin, eyes, and hair the colors of the sea and waters came and helped him to escape his fate as a slave. Curious and taken in by her beauty, he followed her, learning the ways and teachings of the undine’s goddess. He saw that Calistria must have pitied him and sent this bard named Sirith to rescue him from his soon-to-be masters. Prakar and Sirith soon fell in love with one another. He journeyed with her to her home in Absalom, where she began to talk about the raising of a cathedral dedicated to Calistria, a plan that he doubted but he trusted both his love and the Favored Sting and vowed to see that such a cathedral be built successfully.

Prakar is an extremely tall muscular half-orc with a height of 6’3”, his body is covered with tribal tattoos and scars. He is naked save for a simple loincloth, decorated with the holy symbol of the Favored Sting and colored in her sacred colors as well. He goes barefoot as well. He carries a mighty falchion that drips with acid when drawn for battle. His eyes are the color of violet and his hair is the color of fire. His tusks are razor sharp and he has been known to use them in battle. He also carries with him a pair of pan pipes, which surprises many visitors, especially when they hear him skillfully play them, accompanied by Sirith’s dances and strings.

The half-orc savage is bit hot-tempered, but he is also honorable and trustworthy friend, especially in the heat of battle. He cares deeply for Sirith and her temple, and will risk his life for both. He also takes his duties as a priest of Calistria seriously as well. He favors her as a deity of warlike vengeance, but also as a goddess of passion, especially in terms of his romance with the undine bard. He is slightly overprotective of her, but he means well, and knows that she can handle herself quite well, although he does coddle her from time to time.

Prakar and Sirith get along quite well, although Prakar tends to be a bit overprotective of her at times, but he’s willing to give her space, knowing she can handle herself. He is also protective of her plans and would defend the Heart of the Ocean’s Passion to the death if need be. Sirith loves the half-orc with all her heart and would gladly give her life for him especially if her goddess asked her to. Prakar is also in love with the undine bard as well, having learned much about Calistria from her and even going so far as to become a cleric of the Favored Sting herself. Sirith tends to get a bit jealous when one of the temple’s clients takes a fancy after her half-orc lover, she knows he’s only doing his priestly duties, but she is quick to remind anyone who tries to steal her Prakar from her that she will feel more than just her wrath’s sting! Illana knows this, and would never dream of stealing Prakar from her friend. While they have been known to argue with one another, especially over Prakar’s insistence on wearing nothing save a loincloth, the bond between the two is strong as adamantine and as beautiful and mighty as the seas of the world.

The newly created temple of Calistria, the Heart of the Ocean’s Passion, is located near the docks of Absalom. It has many of the usual features that one would associate with a temple dedicated to the Favored Sting, except it also has features dedicated to water and oceans, such as designs of seahorses and dolphins, in addition to several stained glass windows depicting the goddess herself, one of which, the largest one in fact, shows her as a nude aquatic elf surrounded by seahorses and bees. The temple has one bedroom, where Prakar and Sirith sleep. Illana sleeps in the common room until additional bedrooms can be constructed. The temple has a magnificent statue of Calistria that shows the Favored Sting as a scanty clad sea elf holding a barbed whip and a harp.

Ilana Silvershadow, a female aquatic elf cleric, is a good and trustworthy friend of Sirith and devout follower of Calistria. She was brought on to handle running the Heart of the OCean's Passion while Sirith and Prakar take care of other matters.

Leadership score: 13 (10 base score +2 (has headquarters) +1 (fairness and generosity))
Followers: Sirith has eleven followers, a 2nd level female half-elf adept and 10 level 1 (5 are commoners, 3 are experts, and two are warriors) followers made up of elves, undines, half-orcs, half-elves, and humans.

. Figit was born under a Blessing of Besmara aboard a passenger ship, which was attacked by pirates shortly after. The ship was sunk but one of the pirates saved the newborn Figit.
. At the next port, the pirate bestowed the care of the child to one of the pirate's favorite bar wenches, who loved and raised Figit as her own, despite the race difference of her being a human and Figit being a Halfling. Growing up in a tavern atmosphere, especially one frequented by known pirates, Figit was quick to sharpen his pugilist skills, using his size to his advantage against larger opponents. Whether breaking up a threat to his "house", protecting his mother, or being underestimated due to his small stature. Figit excelled in finding the weak spots of his oppenents, winning brawls with an amazing finesse, always careful to perform a knockout non-lethaly whenever possible, these were patrons after all, and the means by which his mother earned a living. Unarmed fighting is not the only way to pass time in a tavern though, with plenty opportunity to imbibe alcohol, Figit also possesses the ability to drink liquids in an accelerated time.
. Whether it came from a sign at birth, magnificent tales shared through ale at the tavern by pirates, a search to find answers for questions he hadn't asked yet, or merely earn some coin... Figit often signed on to crews for various ships. As any able body seaman will attest, when crewing a ship, you pick up various skills that may not be required for your assigned duties. Sometimes out of necessity to fill an open assignment, or sometimes simply to pass the countless hours at sea. Of course, all crews are different and require an ability
to sense the motives of each individual. As can be expected in a area riddled with pirates, some rogue crews didn't always follow the path of the righteous. More often than not you can learn more from these type crews than your standard trade ships.
. Fortune has smiled upon Figit and he has invested in his future by opening an inn (The Grotto), and a "legitimate" shipping business (Manta Ray Shipping Company). He's taken on a partner (5th lvl Bard) in Etuna Stareye. He's acquired a small following of loyal employees. Each of which he has given a personalized coin with the emblem of his shipping company engraved on it. The coin also acts as an "id" to prove loyalty to him and when shown at The Grotto or Manta Ray warehouses provide special benefits. (i.e. bar tab, reduced prices, lodging, ec.)
. Figit currently has 1 ship in his fleet, a keelboat (the Hawkbill) that he captains himself. Used for chartered transport of people or goods. He has aspirations for a proper sailing ship to roam the seas aboard.

Shortly after opening his new tavern (The Grotto), Figit hired Etuna to perform and help draw a crowd. Etuna is a natural entertainer and as the tavern grew into a small inn, She has been entrusted with the day to day operations by Figit. Unknown to her, Figit has a love interest in her, but has never made his amorous feelings know to her. She occasionally accompanies Figit on his voyages. Provides more support and knowledge than physical combat or sailing expertise.
. Etuna is a very pleasant conversationalist and diffuses almost any hostility that rears it's head in the Grotto. She is Figit's most trusted confidant.

Amara Ishu (ginganinja)
Some of Brielle's student may frequent her establishment. This fact would be completely unbeknownst to her. Branson (cohort) may also have visited both to make use of the information network and to handle any debts/trouble the students may have gotten into.

The Nameless Librarian (Phylotus)
Since the Wethers have lived in Absalom their whole lives, I'm sure a curious little shop like The Undertow is something they would have visited.

Herger Orickson (The Nine)
I'm sure many of Brielle's student would be eager to get in the arena, especially if a quick buck is to be made. They would be easily recognizable as they are all lightweight fighters with a very particular, but effective style of fighting. Perhaps even Bronson or Brielle might have tried their hands in the ring.

Turanerra Kalidoksis (ph Unbalanced )
Before opening her own school, Brielle served as a tutor for many nobles. As a result she may have encountered Maricelli's work.

Josephus Fynch (DM Barcas)
While Brielle would have little need for a bounty hunter or a private adventurer, she would probably trust Josephus a lot if the two have ever met. Both characters seem to have a strong belief in doing the right thing, even when there is an easier path.

Davina Goldenale (Anerin Rhodri)
I haven't specified a religion for Brielle, but considering that she runs an entire academy of rapier wielders, its wouldn't be a stretch to say that she leans toward Cayden Cailean.

Cysos Flametender (Dragonflyer1243)
Who doesn't like zoos?

Dolgrin Girndmar (Thron)
Brielle may have needed Dolgrin's services recently in order to stock her dojo/.

Arythia Lodesani (niconorsk)
Brielle may have encountered some of Ary's Angels at the occasional noble soiree she was invited to.

Sirith (SCKnightHero1)
Like with ginganinja's entry, it's unlikely that Brielle would visit the temple. But her students and brother have been there.

Simon Longreach (Harakani)
Both Brielle and Simon seem to have very similar goals of using their academies to teach their respective disciplines to those who wouldn't normal be able to afford it. They could easily know about each other and refer students. (ie. "I'm not sure swordsmanship is for you, but I know a very affordable wizard academy!")

Who indeed? Perhaps your students came on a class trip, or Cy contracts your students to guard the rarer animals he gets delivered.
