Relics of the Saints and Holy Ones

Saints are heroes of faith, those who performed deeds of renown in the name of their god. Saints have magical powers above and beyond normal and may grant magical aid beyond death.

Many saint objects look common but accessories, carrying cases or scabbards will be valuable artworks often covered in gems and gold worth hundreds of gold. Some encrust common objects in gold and precious stones.

    1. so mog is slang for cats in some parts of the world?
      MOG is just my current d&d house-ruled campaign.
      It's word a corruption of Gogmagog; biblical characters reinterpreted as celtic giants reskinned as the spirit of a science-fantasy D&D campaign seemed appropriate enough.
