Tamara is the kindest and most benevolent of the draconic deities. Some mistake this characteristic for weakness, though such beings don’t make the same error twice. She appears as a luminously beautiful silver dragon, her eyes shining with the brightness of the sun.
Dogma
Tamara believes in mercy both in life and in death. Not only does she heal the sick and tend the injured, she also delivers a merciful end to those dragons nearing the end of their natural life span. She fiercely detests those who artificially prolong the life of a dragon, particularly when it is against that dragon’s will.
Clergy
Tamara’s clerics are healers, but also deliverers of death to those who would escape it. They prefer to destroy any undead they encounter, particularly draconic undead (such as dracoliches). Though theirs is a peaceful and merciful faith, the worshipers of Tamara do not hesitate to stand against evil or tyranny.
Quests
The most common quest from Tamara is undertaken in opposition to some endeavor of Falazure. Those seeking undeath are corrupting the natural order and must be stopped, so Tamara’s quests focus on destroying or thwarting undead creatures, especially undead dragons.
Prayers
Prayers to Tamara have joyous, uplifting cadences and are often melodious paeans to light and life.
Temples
Tamara’s temples are not simple places of worship. They tend to be hospitals, infirmaries, or hospices where the sick are welcomed. Severely or terminally ill individuals are cared for with dignity and respect. When a patient dies, his passing is greeted as good news, a merciful escape from the cares of this life.
Rites
Births, returns to life and even final deaths are celebrated. They are opportunities to reflect upon and praise Tamara’s generosity, mercy and peace.
Herald and Allies
An old silver dragon is Tamara’s primary herald. Her allies include good dragons, half-dragons, and draconic creatures of all sorts.
