Realm
The restless goddess Joramy maintains no fixed realm, but wanders the planes of
Bytopia and Elysium.Relationships
Joramy gets along with non-evil gods who aren't afraid to be aggressive, but cares little for such emotionally distant deities as
Delleb and Rao. Her disdain for such beings extends even toZodal , her estranged lover. Joramy is a slightly subservient ally ofPelor who values her willingness to go to lengths he would not in the fight against evil. She is also allied withKurell , who shares her reactionary, emotional nature.Joramy hates
Erythnul and her church has a "kill on sight" policy concerning his clerics and worshipers. The exact cause of her enmity is unclear, except that it is centered on Erythnul's jealousy of the Fire Goddess. Joramy is also an enemy ofBeltar . This is due to several instances of Beltar's followers in theHellfurnaces making sacrifices of Joramy's followers. This is likely to lead to all out war between the two factions, presently.Artifacts
Mordenkainen believes that Joramy played a role in the creation ofQueen Ehlissa's Marvelous Nightingale .References
