Church of Liira
Creed
joy is the essence, the spark, and the reward of life when expressed in revelry. Joy bound up inwardly is joy unshared, and joy shared is joy increased for all. Celebrate daily with non-Joydancers, even if only in impromptu dances and chanted ditties and jests imparted. Awaken smiles and laughter, lighten hearts, and encourage folk to express their joy. Sing without shame or criticism; mimic without malice; lam¬poon without nasty intent, but only in laughter.Secular Aims
Joydancers (priests of Lliira) are expected to put on revels, large and small (but larger is better), whenever they can. To share joy, they want strangers and passersby to join in, and they are pleased when crowds are lured together. Although unbridled horseplay can be a feature of many such events, Joydancers are good at revelry and so often get hired by nobility, the wealthy, and courtiers to put on events. They are experts at organization, subtle crowd control, costumes and decorations, food and drink, the establish¬ment of proper mood, and the pacing of revels. They are expected to share twenty percent of their takings with the church of Lliira, but may keep the rest—and many Joydancers do quite well from sideline businesses such as training dancers and acrobats, selling and renting costumes, and catering. Some of Lliira’s priests aren’t above covertly causing or encouraging local rivalries between the sponsors of revels. This interplay results in each side trying to outdo the other, year after year, by putting on larger, longer, and more ex¬pensive festivities—which Joydancers and others derive ever-increasing profits from. In Sembia and Amn in particular, such efforts have led to a rise in flamboyant high society over the years, setting trends among nobility and the wealthy, making increasingly florid clothing fashionable, and popularizing ever more costly feasts and rev¬els. As Joydancer Mralaera Tretta of Saerloon put it in 1354 DR, “Times hard? Play harder! Times a loving manner, so that those you inflict the cagood? Play harder still!” resses of Loviatar upon will seek them willingly, Whenever possible, Joydancers create a culture of celebration in which folk rich and poor see no reason not to hold frequent nightly feasts and revels, after the day’s work is done. These events Be an ever more accomplished actor, playing the part of someone who cares deeply, so that you will be loved and longed for by those you hurt. Doing so makes the hurt deeper. Seduce kings inevitably become “the” places where adventurers meet those who want to hire them, where deals bright and shady are done, where strangers and “long aways” hear the latest local news and gos¬sip, and many go to see and be seen.Этика
