Bayrion

Master of Coins, Lord of the Night, Patron of Inns

Bayrion is the god of darkness and wealth and is often worshipped by people whose professions cannot tolerate the light of day. However, he is also the patron of inns, taverns, and alehouses. Followers of Bayrion adopt a strict code of conduct. Those dealing with worshipers of the god of coins are usually offered a contract of sorts and can expect this contract to be honored. As the god main aspect is greed, many will try to out better in any dealing with others.

Although Bayrion is evil, it's not uncommon for a good-aligned rogue to whisper a small prayer to gain his favor when undertaking a dangerous job.

The god is depicted as a short-statured person, possibly a halfling, hooded and cloaked, with gold coins streaming from his hand.

Bayrion's teachings are as follows:

• Embrace the night, for it is your cloak.
• Wealth belongs to those who can acquire it.
• If you make a contract, honor it.
