Parvathian
Weaver of Gold, Proud Porcelain Prince
A traveler steps to the side of the road, content with their progress and eagerly awaiting a rest. As another enters their view, the traveler invites them to join their rest for the evening, serving tea and sharing both woes and joys. Where does the journey lead next? A regal and finely dressed acolyte addresses the concerns of the crowd gathered in the square beneath the balcony of the House of Luck. Her voice rings out with authority and an underlying melody of calm. The gold-lined market of the City of Fortune closes as the 4th day of the month approaches. A day of rest mandated by the Spirit of Fortune. Parvathian – the recently elevated god of gold, presentation, and domesticity – is the patron god of wanderers, merchants, and homes. Like his predeessor Judas, Parvathian regularly moves amidst the growing population of his region and amidst the City he has made his own. Everyone is aware when Parvathian makes an entrance, for he is the god of presentation for a reason. It is fitting that one who must have been carefully and meticulously sculpted by the gods is now a god himself. Yet those who have come to serve the god of fortune are well aware that their regal and seemingly extravagent god far prefers to spend his time amidst more simpler things.
Rebuilding a Region
A testament to and reminder of the true origin of the Dremoran pantheon, Parvathian was once mortal, and recently too. Once the leader of the Gold Dragon Clan in Caliban, Parvathian was disgraced, downtrodden... and then offered godhood. Much like Parvathian was rebuilding his life, he now has a region to rebuild. Once covered in miasma and a desolate wasteland, Parvathian's domain is slowly building upon the ruins and relics of the past. Hopefully, Parvathian and his people will avoid the same fate as those that came before.

Tenets of Faith
Blessed Are They That Wander – Life is a series of journeys, some better than others. A journey need not be physical, though a journey that requires one to tread the roads of the world may help one find oneself or enter the next stage in the broader scheme of life. Seek your own path. Others may help carve a path for you and, while you may accept their aid, advice, and guidance, only you can and should dictate how the stones of your path are laid and where your path will wind. Do not fear wandering off the path you have built thus far; you may find the start of another path or encounter fellow travelers. Share your burdens as frequently as you share your joy.
The Greatest Fortune Isn't Gold – In and of itself, gold harbors little. It is a gold metal that merely reflects the warm glint of the sun. Gold is useful in the meaningful things it can obtain: wealth to buy materials to repair a home, the means to assemble a thoughtful gift, and the time to spend with people and nature or to expand the mind and improve the body. True wealth lies within and between. Gold, at best, is merely the messenger. One that should be given its due and made available to all... but not the greatest fortune to behold.
Well-Spoken and Well-Honed – The way one presents and carries oneself often speaks more than the words that leave their lips. Equally so, one's initial bearing may be rendered null by the poorly spoken word. Thus, it is imperative that one's image be honed and mastered. Equally so, the art of wordplay and negotiation should be well-practiced. Imperfection is to be expected and honesty demanded. This is not a mask to be crafted, but a version of the self to be cultivated.

History
Parvathian and Ismera's first actual meeting was a formal request to become... a throuple: dragon, dragonborn, and the Being of Blood. Despite agreeing to an initial proposition, Ismera was initially hesitant and possesive of Ghilani, but ultimately acquiesed when they learned of Parvathian's love and respect for the arcane (despite his inability to wield magic) and their shared distaste for the region of Caliban. Over 100 years, Parvathian is one of the few people Ismera is willing to leave Carmenthia's Library for.
