All the Promise in the World - Voices of Lythertida


Lost Omens Campaign Setting General Discussion


One of the things I love most about Golarion is that there is a ton of stuff left unwritten. It allows me to expand on things in my games and invent new things to further enrich the game world. A part of the setting that always interests me are the divine being they have and how the interact with their followers and each other. On one of the Pathfinder FB pages I play a little game of creativity where as ask about what kind of character you would make to follow a god. This week I'm looking at Lythertida, Empyreal Lord of idealism, potential, and young death.

Sitting at our theoretical gaming table, our GM turns to us and says, "All of the characters must be followers of Lythertida, although they do not need to be divine casters." What character do you make? Who is he? Why has he chosen The Voiceless Tragedy as his patron? In what ways does he further the Empyreal Lords's goals? Why would he be attracted to this beings doctrine?


My latest PFS character does actually worship Lythertida. He is an Ectoplasmatist with a necromancy focus (fluffed as teaching himself holy warrior-ness after failing to be accepted to Paladin school sort of because of worshipping Lythertida and mostly because he has little CHA).

He follows her after he lost a close friend to a tragedy at a young age and wishes to save other children from suffering through what he suffered through. And Lythertida understands his pain... (in a slightly-less-emo-than-that-sounds way).

(Mostly I just wanted to make a Chill Touch specialist who thinks of himself as an almost Paladin, wielding negative energy for a good deity.)
