Avandra, the Changebringer
(a.k.a. She Who Makes the Path, Lady Luck)
Matron of the open road, difficult choices, and the perseverance needed to change oneself or anything else that needs changing. Change is hard and she is here for you. She emphasizes freedom, trade, travel, adventure, and luck. She encourages her followers to venture into the unknown. Her will heralds open frontiers, and her call beckons her followers to discover that which awaits them beyond the known. Her worship is common among merchants, free spirits, and adventurers, and tavern cheers celebrate her as a bringer of luck and fortune.
There are few urban temples dedicated to the Change Bringer, but her shrines are often found along well-traveled roads and off the beaten path.
