The Wiccan pantheon

Created by Speaknoevilma. PDF by brothersale Pantheon History The Wiccan pantheon is a prime example of a new pantheon emerging from a modern re-evaluation of ancient ideals and concepts (even Wiccan experts admit that the religion that spawned these new gods only began about sixty years ago). The Wiccan pantheon like many of the others is focused on humanity but their focus is their inner enlightenment. They believe that by helping humanity to look inside of themselves for knowledge and wisdom they can better the universe. As such they interact very intimately with humanity both in the past and now and their weakness lies in their vulnerability to the human beliefs that the other gods seek to avoid. Though they are willing to let their own natures evolve and change so long as they evolve along with the mortals they care for. Virtues: Courage, Expression, Harmony, Intellect Pantheon Specific Purview Book of Shadows With this purview a Scion is able to utilize the tools that have been a staple of the wiccan faith since its inception (and parts of the component beliefs that Wicca composes itself from). Able to call some of their divine parents powers through every day items as others of the faith had one before. Boline (1 point) With this ability a Scion is able to designate a knife or dagger, either a cooking utensil or actual weapon and it will operate as a competent tool for any craft or art using their hands and also adds a two dice bonus to these skills. This boon costs one legend to active and the item stays blessed for the rest of the scene. Athame (2 points) A Scion is able to designate any dagger or knife as their Athame a blade that has been used by many before them to channel the energies of the wiccan pantheons worshippers. The Athame allows a scion to boost the powers of his boons either by increased in the distance or time by 1/4th the distance. Activating this power costs the Scion one legend point and a single item cannot be marked as both a Boline and an Athame. Pentagram (3 points) A Scion is now able to designated a 10ft diameter circle as a Pentagram so long as he possesses some materials to fashion a physical pentagram (ie chalk, stones, powders, rope, etc) Within the pentagram a Scion is protected from supernatural threats such as a Titanspawn or the abilities of another Scion. They are still vulnerable to all physical and mortal threats. A Titanspawn isn't able to enter the pentagram and any supernatural attacks or abilities directed inside is unable to breach the circle. Scions

are able to enter the circle at will, even enemy Scions but any enemy Scions boons will suffer the same penalty. If anyone who is within the pentagram when it is cast leaves it the Pentagram is broken. It costs one legend to dedicate the Pentagram and a willpower point must be spent to imprint each given Titanspawn or Scion as an 'intruder', and it lasts for a half hour for every success they roll on a (Intelligence + Occult) roll.

The Maiden The first incarnation of what is known as the Triple Goddess, the Maiden is caught in the first blush of her youthful beauty, turning many heads not only with the beauty of her face but of the innocence she espouses.
