A question, NotFishing, Good sir: Do Monks of Malis have monestaries, or is that just a human thing?

Anyways, we need to talk about this character of yours. Is she going to be fifteen or sixteen? Is she going to have magic, and are you going to give her the typical spy background?

You should know that if she does have magic, then unless she has spent a few years in the Mage Guild (which would therefore detract from her spy skills, as they don't teach stealth and swordplay over there), she would only have a basic grasp of one element. You can still be a spy-mage, but you'll have to decide which one is your main skill, and which one is your fallback skill. Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

I don't know know what you mean by human thing. If you're referring to the fact that she is an elven goddess, elves don't have temples as the clans are nomadic.

But yes, all gods have monasteries. Malis's in particular have rich libraries, and her priests also specialize in science and magic. However, the Aspects of Order and Chaos do not grant Faith Magic - they prefer to aid mortals by granting prayers, visions, and advice. If you want Faith Magic, you'll have to go with someone who follows either an Aspect of Good or an Aspect of Evil. But you can still worship Malis in addition to that god.

NotFishing, good sir, What about an assassin Shadow-college where Annie could train in stealth and become a Nightblade? =)

There's the Assassin and Thieves Guild, but they don't train their members so much as they wait for them to become half-decent thieves and killers in their own right before recruiting them. If they ever employ children, it's usually as couriers and pickpockets.

However, I could write something about a group that kidnaps magically gifted children and trains them to become assassin-mages. However, the Drow Empire would be the only nation that could really get into that. Maybe instead of Half-Elf Annie could be Half-Drow? And maybe she ran away because she wanted out of that life, and ended up joining a mercenary company in the Petty Kingdoms.

How does that sound, Annie? Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.
