Church of Sune
Creed
True love wins all, and so love should be encouraged everywhere—for people, for beauty and the arts, for hobbies, and for well-done accomplishments. Foster attraction, allure, and the display of beauty. Perform a loving act every day, and acquire things of beauty not to keep for private enjoyment, but to share and display. Move beautifully, dress beautifully, and meet others with warm affection that deepens into friendship, respect that deepens into admiration, and flirtation that deepens into romance that becomes love. Let all of this behavior be genuine, for true beauty is found inside rather than in the artifice of outward display.Secular Aims
Sune (soon or soon-ay; the lat¬ter is more recent and rarer) expects her clergy to guide others to follow her creed as well as follow it themselves. As such, they’re called Heartguides. In a similar fashion, the upperpriests are known as Heartwardens, and the high priest is the Heartwarder. Sunite clergy network very well, having many friends to whom they offer support and loyalty. They are valued partners in any businesses concerned with fashion, such as garments and accessories as well as those involving body enhancement, such as corsets and other reshap¬ing foundation garments, scents, cosmetics and adornment paints, and jewelry. They also aid businesses concerned with dance and “carriage” (gait and stance), etiquette, singing, and voice control, and they have established themselves in many businesses that provide provender and “dressing” (props and transformations) for revels, feasts, and more intimate gatherings. Especially in larger urban areas, some Heartguides enjoy great financial success as a result of such work. Thanks to their winning ways and extensive net¬works of friends, ever since 1349 DR onward they have even been hired for lucrative but short stints to spread word of new wares and artists of note and to sway public attitudes or political initiatives. Heartguides tithe twenty percent of all they make to the church of Lady Firehair to maintain temples, to aid other Heartguides in displaying themselves to their best advantage, and to make temple rituals as attractive and popular as pos¬sible. Some of those tithes go toward embellishing rituals with moving song performances, dances, and prayers accompanied by lush instrumental music. Most Sunite clergy live a high lifestyle, spending lavishly and never accumulating all that much—but never needing it. The church is charged to provide shelter, nursing, and food for its elderly, ill, or maimed members, and later to tend their (beautiful) graves, usually in remote (but sometimes inner-city) “Goldenrest” monas¬teries—and it diligently does so.Если вы хотите что то добавить или присоединится к команде редакторов - пишите комментарии
