Silent Night - Faithful of the Black Butterfly


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 I ask about what kind of character you would make to follow a god. This week I'm looking at The Black Butterfly, the Empyreal lord of distance, silence, and space..

Sitting at our theoretical gaming table, our GM turns to us and says, "All of the characters must be followers of The Black Butterfly, although they do not need to be divine casters." What character do you make? Who are they? Why have they chosen The Silence Between as their patron? In what ways do they further this Empyreal Lord's goals? Why would he be attracted to this beings doctrine?


Well, this character (a Talisman Crafter Occultist) venerated both Desna and Black Butterfly...

So an easy tweak would be to make her more focused.

The character's interest in the blackness between the stars is essentially mystical in nature, a sort of fascination with universal mysteries...

Occutlists always seemed like the perfect class for anyone dealing with the Dark Tapestry. Although The Black Butterfly's hatred for all the things that come out of it makes the reason for studying it different than say those who worship the great old ones or outer gods.
