Mystra

D&D 2024 deity: Mystra. Source: Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn. pantheon Faerûnian The Lady of Mysteries is a god of tremendous power, even among other deities. Her dominion is the Weave, the sum total of magic, from which spells are drawn. Like magic itself, Mystra has undergone many changes over the millennia, including two known passings of her mantle. The faith of Mystra is pervasive throughout Faerûn, which is unsurprising in a land so touched by magic.

The blue-clad priests of Mystran temples, called dweomerkeepers, wield both arcane and divine magic. Mystra inspires magic-centric organizations such as the Knights of the Mystic Fire, her foremost martial champions.
