Water
The element of water is the most rare and precious, on Athas. It is a giver and sustainer of life. Plants would not grow and animals would die of dehydration without it. Water flows moving through almost any opening and filling any container, surrounding all it touches. Water’s nature is mutable taking on the form of whatever holds it, yet easily escaping through any crack to spill out onto the dusty ground. The priests of water share it’s mercurial nature. Their ever flowing minds allow the children of the waves to fill and exploit any circumstance that presents itself, following the path of least resistance to their destiny.
In its pure form water is the essence of life itself. It courses through our bodies in the form of blood. It spills forth from our eyes in the form of tears washing away our sorrows. And it trickles down mountain sides gathering into streams and rivers, pooling into ponds and lakes, and sustaining the growth of all the plants and animals of the world. Those chosen by the living waters often feel a great calling to provide for the health and well being of others and enjoy the natural beauty of all living things.
But Water does not only bring life and growth with it, it can also bring great pain and suffering in its wake. The sorrow of the children of the waves runs deep. The seas, once filled with life and energy, are now a barren choked wasteland of dust and death. And most of the rivers and lakes of days past, have dried up under the relentless gaze of the cruel Sun. Some Cleric of Water seek to make the people of Athas understand the pain and suffering their careless actions have wrought, so that they might learn from the mistakes of the past.
Because of its deep ties to the past, and its calling to restore the vibrant beauty of Athas, many Halflings follow the ways of the Water spirits. Halfling more than any other race, have learned how to step lightly on the earth and live in harmony with nature. And more than anyother race they remember the mistakes of the past that brought them down this road. The weight of responsibility for their ancestors actions hang heavy on their shoulders.
At it’s Worst, Water grows foul and stagnent turning bitter and brakish. Trapped by the mistakes of days long past, it cannot find the way to move forward. Foul things begin to grow within, poisoning all who come to drink from it, and breeding parasites and disease. Evil Water Clerics seek to spread the taint that has infected them so that others may sare in their suffering and know their torments. Evil Water Cleric come from the ranks of those who have suffered great misfourtune for which they can never come to terms with.
