Games - Tyr


Tyr is the Faerûn
ian deity of Law and Justice in Ed Greenwood
's Forgotten Realms
fictional world of Abeir-Toril
. His dogma is primarily concerned with the punishment of wrong-doers, and the general furthering of Law and Good in the world.

Tyr holds great prominence in the Faerûnian pantheon due to his position as leader of the Triad, a trio of lawful good gods that are collectively devoted to the concepts of courage, justice, perseverence, relief of suffering, duty, obedience, honor, and to some extent righteous martyrdom. Not coincidentally, these values are ones held by most paladins and any given paladin in Abeir-Toril is more likely to follow the Triad than not. The two gods who serve Tyr as part of the Triad are Ilmater
, deity of healing, suffering, and martyrdom; and Torm
, god of paladins and personification of courage, dutiful service, and obedience.

Tyr is blind and missing his right hand, for which he bears the title "The Maimed God." Ilmater, true to his ethos, works to teach Tyr to live with these disabilities, though in truth they are not a great hindrance in view of his power as a greater god.

In the Second Edition Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, Tyr originally came from Earth. This was omitted from the Third Edition Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting.

Favor

To keep Tyr's favor, one must respect fallen enemies, never make sacrifice of a corpse, and keep one's alignment lawful good. Tyr considers slaying agents of evil to be honorable and worthy of the highest praise.

Orders

  • Knights of Holy Judgement
The Order of the Knight of Holy Judgement tends to attract the paladins who emphasize the "lawful" part of their dedication to Tyr.

  • Knights of the Merciful Sword
The Order of the Knight of the Merciful Sword tends to attract the paladins who emphasize the "good" part of their dedication to Tyr.
