Drabble: Turn, Turn, Turn
Jul. 8th, 2008 08:12 pmIn the original Dungeons and Dragons, and the First and Second Editions of Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, clerics (priests) had the ability to ‘Turn Undead’. That is, they held up their Holy Symbol and the power of their faith would drive back the skeletons, zombies, or whatever. In Third Edition clerics of Evil and Neutral deities have a modified version of the ability called ‘Rebuke Undead’. That makes me think of something entirely different and inspired this drabble set in the ‘Tabula Avatar’ ‘verse. What if Tara hadn't chosen to worship Mielikki but instead had been converted by Viconia and become a priestess of Shar? 100 words, PG, no specific time within the overall story.
