Azura
Azura is the goddess of agriculture and nature: sowing and reaping, seeding and harvest, breeding and butchery, shearing and weaving. Azura is the wife of Azuth, the sister of Mystra and Istra, and the mother of Azoun,and Ioun. In this aspect she is a rural deity rarely prayed to behind the walls of a city except by kitchen gardeners. But Azura is also the Great Mother, a goddess of the crib, hearth, and home. And as such she is welcomed into all homes at mealtimes and at the birth of children, and folk give her thanks whenever they experience the pleasure of settling by a fire and feeling safe and loved. Azura has the powers of a 30th level Cleric, and a 20th level Druid. Azura's faith is one of nurturing and growth. Agricultural aphorisms and farming parables dot her teachings. Growing and reaping, the eternal cycle, is a common theme in the faith. Destruction for its own sake, or leveling without rebuilding, is anathema to her. Temples of Azura maintain a great body of lore about farming and cultivation. Her priests work closely with communities in rural areas, and they are willing to roll up their sleeves and dig their hands into the earth.Divine Domains
