Sometimes called the voices of the gods, | Sometimes called the voices of the gods, Emissaries are planar beings that serve as spokespeople on behalf of great pantheons. Some Emissaries might be children of the gods, and some might be champions that were once mortal and rose to a form of immortality. Sometimes, one or more gods might simply wish an Emissary into existence. | ||
Emissaries will strive to represent their pantheons as truly as they can. An [[Emissary of the Celestial Council]] is likely to be cordial, reserved, and diplomatic; even if they do want to help a person, they are only likely to do so if they see no potential downsides or imbalances that their assistance might cause. Emissaries from the Exiles can come across as similarly diplomatic, but their demeanors [[mask]] careful political calculations as they attempt to leverage their power to force mortals into their service. | Emissaries will strive to represent their pantheons as truly as they can.
