Meliboea

From FeyworldWiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

Meliboea has many of the same interests as her mother, Majestas, but shares little of her interest in fairness. Meliboea desires nothing more than to see the wrong be brought to justice, regardless of local legal systems. Despite having strangely opposed spheres, Tisiphone and Meliboea consider each other reluctant allies, as often the same people who seek vengeance are also seeking justice. When those two aims are at cross purposes, Meliboea and Tisiphone become the direst of enemies.

Meliboea’s priests tend to be younger than most, as she encourages them to go forth and mete out justice whenever possible. It is also because of this that her priests are often not welcome in the most peaceful of nations, though they are rarely proscribed outright.

Meliboea rarely has temples of her own; her priests typically worship in the same physical structure as the temples of Aridnus, Majestas, and Fides. In some regions, these temples also double as the local judicial houses and Meliboeans are unusually influential and restrained in these areas.
