Skill description: The table is used exactly as the 'Turn Undead' table. The skill affects only humanoids creatures having an intelligence between 5 and 18 (including 5 and 18). The sole exception, is bonus for high wisdom applies. (ex: a 4th level priest attempting to pacify a 5th level bard with 16 of wisdom would need at least 15 on his die roll.) When a creature is pacified; it will cease any immediate hostile action. (ex: A thief attacking a peasant will stop.) Also, the creature will not engage any hostile action towards the priest while he's in the creature's sight. (ex: A king will not order his guards to attack the priest, he wont stop them neither.) A threat towards the creature will negate the effects, but not towards the priest. (Unless the priest threaten the creature; which is against the priest's beliefs.) (ex: a ranger fighting a dragon will be pacified but an instant.) A creature having more than 13HD is entitled a saving throw vs spells if the pacify roll succeeds. P means the creature is automatically pacified regardless of wisdom bonus. F means the creature is friendly to the priest. The rules used are the same as the first level wizard spell friends.

Nythysiss

(The Undead god) Greater Power of Asseasse, Neutral Evil Portfolio: Death, disease, undead Aliases: None Domain Name: Alvanas/The Pyramid of Power Superior: None Allies: None Foes: Ertiam Symbol: Ank Wor. Align.: LE, NE, CE

Nythyssis (NEE-THEE-sess) is the twisted goddess that is now holding the Realms in her grasp, doing with it and its people as she pleases. As feared as she is worshiped around the Realms, she has spread out her follower base at a frightening pace, promising riches and power to all that venerate her while dealing out death and despair to those that do not. Strangely enough, Alvanah is an elf turned deity who holds power in the human pantheon of gods and yet holds no direct influence in the elven pantheon. She is mainly worshiped by humans, although her followers come from all humanoid races in Faerûn.

After acquiring the sought after Mask of Myrkul as a mortal, she fell into the servitude of Cyric, who claimed the mask as his own. At this time she attained the status of a Demipower, given control of the portfolio of envy since in exchange for her power, the mask took the beauty she so adored. Serving the Dark Sun unwillingly, she spent this time shaping her plans of freedom and eventual true godhood. She saw it as her destiny. Upon the trial of Cyric due to Mask's manipulation and the Cyrinishad event, his loss of power and sanity weakened his attention on the activities of the then enslaved Alvanah. She slipped from his control at this time to aid in the destruction of Zhentil Keep, effectively reducing Cyric's followers enough to weaken him and usurp the portfolio of murder from him. This is when her follower base began to grow and due to the dramatic increase in its numbers, she claimed the portfolios of power and power hunger as her own.
