Mystra

Mystra is the central religious figure of Arcana and is worshipped as the goddess of magic and the arcane.

Temples and shrines dedicated to her can be found throughout the city, and her clergy play an important role in Arcana’s religious and cultural life.

According to one of Arcana’s oldest legends, Mystra was not always a goddess.

She was once mortal.

The story claims that Mystra traveled into the heart of Koinonia and encountered the mysterious sacred treasure discovered by the founders of the island’s three great cultures.

When Mystra touched it, something changed.

Some believe the treasure transformed her.

Others believe it recognized her.

Whatever truly happened, Arcana remembers that moment as the beginning of Mystra’s ascension—and the foundation of the city’s relationship with magic.
