Melios

The Mirthful, Trickster

The god of trickery and good fortune, Melios the Mirthful bestows presents and good luck to those he favours, and ill fortune on those he doesn't. Supposedly, he never wears the same face twice and chooses to follow a different routine every day, to stay completely unpredictable.

Description

Said not to possess a face, only a flickering white light in place of a head. Instead, he creates illusory personas and switches them out as he wishes, in order to explore Mistral unnoticed.

Personality

Cunning and wily, the Trickster loves to play pranks on everyone from his fellow Gods to the mortals of Mistral.

Worshippers

Thieves, rogues, and bards all love Melios and devote themselves to his worship. The high elves of the Isles of Morning are particularly faithful as well, due to their love of illusory magic and light.

Chosen - Cheat

Thought to be a blue-skinned tiefling man, who was always clad in drab colours that allowed him to blend into a crowd.
His representation of Melios' mirthful side is part of the reason that tieflings have a reputation as troublemakers.

Divine Domains

Illusions, gamblers, mischief.

Chosen - Miracle

Miracle is always portrayed as a beautiful elven woman, often wearing brightly coloured dresses that mimic the vibrant hues of her hair. Though she is never shown with a weapon in hand, many murals of her include a crystalline instrument of some sort.
The opposing force to Cheat, Miracle represents the good luck and light that Melios brings to Mistral.

Divine Domains

Fortune, wonder, hope.
