Amisra

Mistress of Malady

Amisra, the goddess of disease and poisons, is a figure shrouded in darkness and decay. She embodies the chaotic nature of illness and the insidious effects of toxins, reveling in the suffering and turmoil they bring. Her personality is cunning and unpredictable, often delighting in manipulation and the chaos that follows in her wake. Amisra views disease as a natural part of life, a force that can disrupt and dismantle the status quo, and she encourages her followers to embrace this chaos as a source of power.
When appearing to mortals, Amisra often takes the form of a hauntingly beautiful woman, her skin marked with intricate patterns that resemble veins or creeping vines. Her presence exudes an unsettling charm, and she may carry a vial of a noxious substance that seems to pulse with dark energy. In other manifestations, she may appear as a swarm of disease-ridden insects or a shadowy figure that spreads sickness and despair wherever she goes. Her appearances are often accompanied by a sense of unease, as if the very air grows thick with malice.
Her followers include alchemists, assassins, and those who seek to harness the power of poisons and diseases. Many clerics and warlocks are drawn to Amisra, seeking her favor to gain insights into the darker aspects of magic and the natural world. Her devotees are typically cunning and resourceful, often working in the shadows to spread her influence and chaos. They may create deadly concoctions or unleash plagues, believing that through disorder, they can achieve a greater purpose.
Amisra’s influence can manifest in sudden outbreaks of illness, unexpected betrayals, or the creation of potent poisons that wreak havoc. She may bless her followers with insights into the secrets of toxic substances or grant them the ability to spread fear and despair among their enemies. Those favored by Amisra often find themselves surrounded by shadows, their actions driven by a desire to disrupt and dismantle. Through her guidance, they learn to embrace the chaos of life, finding power in the darkness that others fear.
