Waukeen is the goddess of trade, commerce, and the free flow of wealth. She is pragmatic, energetic, and deeply invested in the prosperity of merchants and the markets that connect civilizations. She believes that trade is the foundation of civilization — that it connects people, creates peace, and generates the wealth that makes culture possible.
She is notably neutral in alignment, believing that commerce serves everyone regardless of their morality. She has no objection to selling to evil buyers as long as the transaction is honest — it is deception and theft she opposes, not the moral character of her customers.
Followers
Waukeen is worshipped by merchants, traders, moneylenders, and anyone whose livelihood depends on commerce. Her followers value fair dealing, the sanctity of contracts, and the free movement of goods and coin. Her clergy often serve as mediators in trade disputes and as bankers or moneylenders. They tend to be practical, energetic, and surprisingly non-judgmental — in Waukeen’s faith, a profitable deal done honestly is a holy act regardless of what’s being sold.
Divine Relationships
Waukeen has cooperative relationships with most non-evil deities, as trade benefits everyone. She is allied with Oghma, as the spread of knowledge and the spread of commerce have much in common. She opposes Mask, the god of thieves, whose followers undermine the honest trade she champions, and Cyric, whose deception corrodes the trust that markets depend on.
