Prayers from the Faithful is a sourcebook for the Forgotten Realms using the 2nd-edition Dungeons & Dragons ruleset. It details a number of holy books and relics of the Faerûnian pantheon.
“
Ever wonder why priesthoods in the Realms continue to flourish, despite the secular power of rich merchants and the land-shattering spells of the archmages?
The answer lies in the mighty spells heretofore kept concealed by the robed clery of the cloisters. These sacred spells are now revealed in these pages, drawn from legendary holy books presently "lost" on Faerûn. To read Prayers From the Faithful is to know holy awe and blessed fear at last!
Learn the long-suppressed secrets of:
- Which gems to place into the eye sockets of the carved faces on Gorothir's Girdle to call forth deadly magics.
- The hallowed album that was used to slay six dragons - and now bears the unblinking, preserved eye of one of them.
- The divine tome that is a gem that served to lure and slay thieves for over 30 years.
- Why it's dangerous to hold the Chanting Chain carelessly - and what wakens to its chants.
And much more! Prayers From the Faithful is an essential guide to the magic of priests in the FORGOTTEN REALMS campaign world, and a useful aid to those portraying priests in any ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS campaign.
Suitable for all levels of play.”
