Verk/ Pierre / Somewhere to rest his holy head
-
Hello!
Im starting this topic to discuss a reward for Pierre. After some discussion on Discord we thought it might be appropriate to offer them a shrine or something similar within the city limits with some storage and a place to sleep. This serves two purposes:
Firstly. I don't think we can argue that Pierre's isn't involving others and organising countless dmless
activities and expeditions etc. They also took the lead on removing the Salt Cultists and succeeded. I know Zolm and Pierre often have joint things. But Pierre has successfully brought Lanna into the Lathander fold and 'converted' her.Secondly. Having a shrine/temple away from Eveningstar takes the focus away from turning it back into what it once was. This allows us to look at new concepts for the village.
Thirdly. There are now three Lathanderites running around the server, 2 of the clerics. They might be temporary but gives them a logical; place to convene, hold sermons etc.
Please let your thoughts be known. Once we have established what the options are, Ill put up a poll.

My own thoughts on this is that we could overhaul 'The Temple of the True Sun' I've been looking at the forums and it doesn't look like its seen any action in a few years.
It would be made smaller to begin with, and have the interiors half finished. But enough of the basics. IE a bed, personal storage and alter and pews for sermons and a collection bowl. Have the rest be 'under construction'
Gives the opportunity for Verk to carry on working on his stuff while dangling the carrot (although I don't think they need any encouragement!) of completing the shrine potentially then looking at Offical clergy.
If Verk gives up, another Lathanderite can then take over 'rebuilding' the temple.
I think this could be a good half way point for Pierres ultimate dream of being official clergy and or even High priest

Where’s the poll nerd?
Yes- make a modest shrine to Lathander somewhere beside Eveningstar that has a room for Pierre. I’m fine with a redo of the True Sun area into something usable.
We can put the NPC sponsor there as the Dawnbringer/Priest of the temple and a couple other NPCs ( move the store merchant)

I didn't add the poll as I wanted to see what the options were going to be. Now added :-)

Sounds good

Small place in Arabel. Needs more actual restoring/building the faith/re-earning people's trust for a long run of idiocy and IC/OOC cowardice or bad decisions. Lathander really has been knocked down from the a major faith. A lot of worshippers will have been killed, turned away from the corrupt and broken church etc.
The Queen will be very careful about crazy Sun Worshippers. She endured the True Sun, The Vigilant Sun, and the mess of Eveningstar.
I never updated the shrine/temple post so my bad but Lathander is not a Temple level influence anymore.
So many players have worked to remove/reduce Lathander faith but for some reason we keep having Lathander come back. Granting the faith that True Sun Temple is opposite of player agency. Cyric and Black Chalice got completely wiped out from the setting with far less effort from players than what has been invested by players in crushing Lathander.

Updated my vote.

I'm happy with either of those option. As long as its 'Under construction' thats my main want.

Suggestion #1:
Tent shrine in Historic District, interior with statue, cot, NPC from Collinwood
Suggestion #2:
Corner in South Gates, has 2 small road shrines and a nice bench already, no function. Can add statue and a cot
Suggestion #3:
Shrine of Tymora/Lathander in Collinwood, already there with an NPC. Just add cot
-
The leader of the shrine needs to be the NPC sponsor of Verk. Can’t remember the name of her

Posted the update. Missed it after the death of the Duke and destruction of Eveningstar

I think historic is the better option out of these.
Are we able to add a 5 item personal storage?
Also, would these be tents IG or are we able to add an under construction small building?
The NPC sponser is called Aurelia Lightsworn

Since this is about Pierre getting a cot/storage, and not about establishing a new shrine. He already got that road shrine in Eveningstar after all. I think option #3 is better, with a cot/storage in the shrine in Collinwood. Its already there, and Lathander's faith has had so many set backs that three shrines is a bit too much. So if we do decide on a new shrine around the capital, I would say we remove the one in Collinwood.
Atm there is already
- Shrine of Tymora/Lathander in Collinwood
- Road Shrine in Eveningstar (Recently earned)

Cleric 7, NG, HumanThis elder noblewoman is a beacon of hope herself, a spiritual embodiment of Lathander's teachings and virtues. She possesses a serene countenance, her ocean-blue eyes sparkling with warmth, compassion, and unwavering faith. As she moves, her steps are marked by serenity and purpose, an embodiment of Lathander's ever-rising light that banishes darkness and brings forth clarity.
With a humble yet commanding presence, she emanates a sense of strength and wisdom, for hers is not just a physical prowess, but a spiritual connection to the divine. Her valor and unwavering devotion to Lathander inspire those around her, instilling a steadfast belief in the power of hope and the beauty of new beginnings.

Yeah if the shrine moves to Arabel. The Collinwood should 100% be removed.
I know you spent time on the Eveningstar one as well but i would also be in favour of just leaving that as the statue, and remove the offering bowl should the one in the city materialise.
