Korrin, The Silver Hand
(a.k.a. The Boss, The Coined Counter)
For Power and Purchase
Korrin is the God of Trade, representing commerce, fair exchange, and the flow of wealth. He is often invoked by merchants, artisans, and travelers seeking success in their ventures. Depicted as a silver-cloaked figure with a hand raised in both greeting and promise, Korrin symbolizes the handshake that seals a deal and the prosperity that comes from honest trade. His clergy, known as the Silver Accord, serve as mediators, negotiators, and protectors of fair trade. Temples of Korrin, called Trade Halls, double as bustling marketplaces and centers of arbitration, where disputes are resolved, and contracts are signed under the god’s watchful gaze. These halls feature silver inlays, scales, and coin motifs, with a central altar often taking the form of a massive balance scale. Korrin’s worshippers include merchants, guildmasters, artisans, and travelers. Adventurers often seek his blessings to fund their expeditions or barter valuable goods. His faith is also popular among nobility who oversee economies, and thieves’ guilds occasionally pay homage to him when disguising their illicit dealings as trade. Before embarking on a journey, many merchants visit a Trade Hall to receive Korrin’s protection for their goods and safe passage, called The Merchant's Prayer.Divine Symbols & Sigils
