Eurmal

Official Cult

Author: christopherallison

This troublemaker is a jester and a fool, but armed with divine energy and strength. His tricks change the world, his pranks create or destroy. Sometimes his jokes are harmless, such as when he attended a banquet of the Celestial Court and caused their clothes to become invisible. Eurmal can be helpful, as illustrated when he distracted the gate guards of Hell so that the Lightbringers could slip by. Often he is malicious, as when he ate all the flying raccoon babies. Despite his cunning, he is just as often the butt of jokes as he is the jokester. Eurmal is a self-indulgent buffoon. Eating, drinking, and fornicating are his favored activities; thievery and callousness are his entertainments. Every sensible deity throws this bum out of his court if he can, and every sensible human throws his worshiper out of his house. Only Orlanth can (sometimes) control him. Eurmal is usually shown as an attractive being provocatively dressed and impishly grinning, often with sharpened teeth. With one hand he holds a bag of tricks while making an obscene gesture with the other.
