外貌特征PHYSICAL APPEARANCE:
阿祖尔Azul 经常被描绘为一位微笑的小天使——这多少让人联想起他最喜欢的牺牲。他的皮肤彻底地洁净;他的身材偏向于丰满。他总是身着一袭最干净、最柔软的棉制礼服。
Azul is often portrayed as a smiling cherub—a somewhat ghastly reminder of his favorite sacrifice. His skin is meticulously clean, and he leans toward plumpness. He always wears a gown of the cleanest, softest cotton.
角色ROLE:
作为雨和所有形式的水分之神,对 马兹特克大陆Maztica 的民众而言,阿祖尔是位非常重要的神明。在那片本就干旱的大陆上,阿祖尔眷顾的地方便是适宜居住的土地,所以当人们定居到某座新山谷时,首要事务之一便是修建一座新神庙,并将它奉献给阿祖尔。
As god of rain, and all forms of moisture, Azul is a tremendously important god to the people of Maztica. In that inherently dry continent, those places favored by Azul are the lands that are worth living in, so one of the first things people did when they populated a new valley was to build a new temple and consecrate it to Azul.
他和他的众多面相,代表着湖泊、大洋、溪流、雪以及水的本质的几乎其它任何方面。阿祖尔同样是 沙母仙人掌酒Octal 之神,并且因此也成了醉酒之神。
He, and his many aspects, represent lakes, oceans, streams, snow, and virtually every other aspect of water's nature. Also, Azul is the god of octal, and consequently, drunkenness.
原则与祭司实践TENETS and PRIESTLY PRACTICES:
阿祖尔的祭司们出于对他们神祇本质的顺从,小心翼翼地保持着自身的洁净。事实上,祭司的皮肤上覆盖着由粗糙的浮石肥皂(他们洗澡时仪式的要素)造成、被作为荣誉勋章的擦伤。
The priests of Azul keep themselves scrupulously clean in deference to their deity's nature. Indeed, a priest wears as badges of honor the abrasions in his skin caused by the rough pumice soap that is the ritual ingredient in their baths.
为了保证一场生长良好的雨季,阿祖尔要求的主要牺牲是将一个年幼儿童(最常是奴隶或囚犯的孩子)的生命溺死在仪式池塘中。大部分社群无论规模,都会有一位祭司在每年主持该仪式,虽然这对那条年幼的生命来说是一种毫无意义且使人毛骨悚然的要求。阿祖尔的祭司能够使用以下主要领域:元素,气象;次要领域:利爪hishna、羽毛pluma、保护、创造、以及魅惑。
The primary sacrifice demanded by Azul, in order to insure a good growing season of rainfall, is the life of a young child, most often the child of a slave or prisoner—drowned in a ritual pool. Most communities of any size have a priest perform this ritual each spring, though it is a senseless and horrifying claiming of a young life. Priests of Azul can have major access to spells of the Elemental and Weather spheres; they can have minor access to the spheres of pluma, hishna, Protection, Creation, and Charm spells.
