The Old World - Grim and Perilous Beta v3

Priest of Shallya
Shallya is the goddess of love, mercy and healing. Her temples are a place of solace
for the tired, sick and desperate who cannot afford medical help. Though Shallya's
followers are usually the poorest, it is good practice among the wealthy to make donations
for the maintenance of her temples, so they can be found in almost every
corner of the Old World.
The priests of Shallya are usually idealists, believing in the power of grace and forgiveness,
tirelessly caring for the sick in the temple hospitals. Some of them are given
the grace of miracles by the goddess, while most receive the gift of good health and
exude an extraordinary aura of warmth and kindness around them.
