Dasa, or the Temptress as she is known, is the Goddess of Seduction and Ill-Used Love. She is a careful watcher of those who would seduce others for gain, pleasure, or both. She thrills in the act of the chase, especially if it involves a truly innocent. In her mind love is for the weak and a tool to gain riches and fame. It is because of this her daughter, Aiyana, Goddess of Love, fights so hard against her. She appears usually as a human woman who's dark beauty is unsurpassing. She wears her blond hair loose to fall to her shoulders. She wears sheen silk clothing that leaves just enough to the imagination. Her eyes shine blue, with a hint of lust, her pouty lips a fine ruby red. Her favorite avatar is Salina, a mistress of a house of ill repute in Astadi.
Some generic roleplaying mechanics are as follows: Her Mages bare the symbol of a black rose rapped seductively about a red rose. Her Mages tend to wear little at all in their temples, and when they go about the world their robes are made of the sheerest, finest silks. Color varies so as to highlight the best attributes of that Mage. They usually have small daggers as their weapons.
Alignment (if your system calls for it) is Chaotic Evil. She uses trickery, seduction, and chaos to get what she wants.
Her followers usually are women, though some men do worship her. Mostly human followers and sirens.
Dasa created Sirens, shapechangers, lycanthropes, and Tsula (a race of centaur with goat heads and bodies).
Her Mages are charged with breaking any innocents heart, with gaining pleasure from the act and revealing in the thrill of the chase. Temples are often simple houses of ill-repute, though they do actually build temples to her, as gaudy and impressive as they can get.
Her interactions are mixed. She adheres to the Balance better then some of the other Gods and does not slight Catiana in the least. Her thought is without innocence in the world she would not be able to get what she wanted. Lokar and her are allies, but not fast friends. Aiyana despises her and Taniger, God of Dwarves, hates her for using innocents. Targon is a slighted lover, but remains neutral where she is concerned. Her followers, on the other hand, have little magic for he doesn't like to see his daughter, Aiyana, to be upset by losing innocents.
Monday: Pezuta, Goddess of Luck
(A correction for the last few days, Lokar's followers include wizards, necromancers, and intelligent undead. Sarjon's followers include knights, fighters, mercenaries, war wizards and battle mages.)
