Oracle
The gods incarnated are truly terrible to behold. For this reason, when they have cause to treat with mortals, they do so through intermediaries called oracles. A god extends a portion of its essence into the host and reveals its intentions to the world through the mortal vessel. In these throes of ecstasy, you experience the joy of divinity, even if the time is fleeting.
Strange happenings follow you when the god manifests in your body. The phenomena depend on the god you serve: Mother Sun brightens nearby flames, while Draconus causes flowers to bloom; wind blows from the Sky Father, and shadows crawl around you if you’re in the grip of Lord Death. Such effects cause no harm but represent the gods’ proximity.
