Leira

Leira was the goddess of deception and illusions. She was an enigma: she never told the truth when falsehood would do. Everything she did and said was shrouded in layers of illusion and lies. She believed the truth is worthless and that misbelief and falsehood are what gives life meaning.

Worshipers
Leira had quite a small following. Her priests, known as Leirans (or Worshipers of the Mistshadow) wore silver masks, and often disguised themselves to deceive those around them. Leirans would speak the truth only to other Leirans. High-level clerics of the Leiran faith were called Mistcallers.

Every morning, and on every moonlit night, Leirans lay face down and prayed to the Lady of the Mists. If there was any mist, Leirans would walk through it and pray. The most revered act in the Leiran faith was the "Unmasking", a purification ritual performed when new followers entered the faith.

History
Two years after the end of the Avatar Crisis, in 1360 DR Leira was slain by the new deity of death Cyric, wielding the sword Godsbane (an avatar of Mask). Her portfolios were subsequently absorbed by the mad god.
