Kind
Don't hurt people who don't deserve it
But sometimes break the rules, especially if they're stupid
I’ve spent so long in the temple that I have little practical experience dealing with people in the outside world. I am tolerant of other faiths and respect the worship of other gods.

I always try to help those in need, no matter what the personal cost.

I will do anything to protect the temple that took me in and taught me Eliestraee's truth.

A Brief Interlude

by Dark Lady Jisra Evensong

Revered Dark Lady DeVir,
Our first (and probably only) practice for Mage Tower went pretty well. I think we have a solid team and stand a good chance of winning. Before the practice, though, the student referee, gnome by the name of Rosie, asked us to search the Aerojaunt stadium and take inventory, telling us that it hadn't been done in years, and that we could keep anything interesting we find. And we did find interesting things! I found a Cloak of Elvenkind! Mist found a Cloak of Displacement, and Luckstone, and an Oil of Slipperiness. Star found a Potion of Climbing, which was given to me, since the Cats have a natural climbing ability anyway. The following day, we cleared Sedgemoor Bayou and ended the lives of several creatures. Not to worry, Mist made quite a delicious stew he called "gumbo" with the snakes and crawdads, so nothing was wasted.
We continue to learn more about Muxagor. Star and I found out more about this "blood whip" ability he uses; it's part of the arsenal of something called an Oriq Blood Mage, a faction of mages that occasionally come to Strixhaven to start trouble because of some old grudge. Even if Muxagor is not a full blood mage, he seems to have some of their skills. In the past, they had targeted lonely, bullied, or otherwise outcast students, making Muxagor a perfect candidate for them. One could almost feel pity for Muxagor, if he hadn't gone off the proverbial deep end, messed with death itself, angered a Rakshasa, and killed three of his peers.
The Mage Ball match is at the end of this ten-day, then exams and home to Waterdeep and the temple. I very much look forward to returning to the sanctity of the church and the closeness of our brethren. Until then, I remain a most humble servant of the Dark Lady.
