Funerals and Passions
Posted: Sun Jun 07, 2020 10:46 am
I was thinking about burial and funerals in Barsaive, and if there is a Passion, and its Questors, who usually handle the burial and funeral of Namegivers. I would assume that a Namegiver who has devoted his or her life to one Passion will have it handled by that Passion's other devotees in one way or another. The funeral of a follower of Thystonius will probably be quite different from a funeral of a follower of Astendar.
But for the rest of the Namegivers? I did a serach of the words "funderal" and "burial" in the Questors book, and from those searches I got the impression that Floranuus might be the one Passion you turn to for funerals. But reading about the Passions in Player's Guide I think Garlen might be a viable choice as well. And when I thought about it a little bit more, I thought that if you consider the aspect of some sort of evaluation of your life, and where you will end up in the afterlife, Mynbruje might also be a viable option.
So, now I wonder if any of yo uhave any thought about what Passion might be the, sort of, default one to turn to for a burial rite?
The reason for this is that I will let my players find an old chapel in a ruined and forgotten burial place, and I wondered what Passion, or possibly Passions they would find statues of there.
Cheers,
Daniel
