The helping Hand
A mysterious unseen, that literally likes to lend a helping hand, now on a divine level.
Alignment: (Neutral)
The Helping hand, a.k.a. "The Coincidence", “The mysterious stranger” or “The Guide”, is an invisible god, never directedly contacting his followers or whoever is graced by his fleeting presence. An unrecognizable whisper behind you, a shadow in the corner of your eye, a glint in the distance, that are his signs and also his forms of communication. The helping hand warns, reminds and altogether draws attention towards things, that is how he contacts mortals. His help is also only ever minor, as the creed of the helping hand is to not solve problems, but to just give a little nudge in the right direction, a chance to notice something. Everything else has to come from the individual: "Offer a helping hand." Nothing more, nothing less. Ironically the most devout of his followers followers are known as the "unseeing". As the helping hand can never be directly looked at, they live their life without looking at people in case their god would hear their pleas and grant them an audience and so they don´t unintentionally drive him away. Until now no confirmed contact was ever established by the helping hand, but this does not deter his most feverous devout. The followers and institutes that dedicate themselves to the ideal of this benevolent god, try to help people so they can help themselves and unearthed the potential and talent that everyone has. They believe there are no useless people, and everyone in the world can thrive, some may be better as they don´t believe all to be equal, but they thinks poverty and helplessness are "made" concepts that should be eradicated or at least minimalized. "Not everyone can be rich, but no one has to remain broke." It is a mystery why the most benevolent of gods doesn´t has a bigger followership.
