Istus (IS-tus)

Istus, Lady of Our Fate, the Colorless and All-Colored, remains one of the greatest deities of the Flanaess. She originated among the Baklunish, but because her focus is on the fate of the universe and all of its inhabitants, she holds herself aloof and apart from all other gods, including the other Baklunish deities. She sees how the threads of time connect all things. While a person can push and pull against them, Istus knows that the threads of fate have an unyielding pull that cannot be escaped.   Depicted in three avatars, she can be an old crone, a mature and haughty noble dame, or as a cold unfeeling shepherd maiden. All aspects carry her gold spindle of fate.
