Ciao, qualche informazione in piu' su ABADAR:

Abadar
Abadar (AB-uh-dar) is a patient, calculating, and far-seeing deity who
wishes to bring civilization to the frontiers, order to the wilds, and
wealth to all who support the progression of law. He strikes a careful
balance between good and evil, seeing benefits of both sides and refusing to
endorse one or the other. His followers believe he is responsible for elevating
the demihuman races from simple tribes to beings capable of creating huge
cities. He puts words of diplomacy in the mouths of men, guides the pens of
those who write laws, and steers coins into the hands of those who practice
good commerce.

The Grand Vault of Abadar, a meticulously well-kept
structure of white marble and gleaming bronze friezes,
stands in the North Point district of Korvosa. Within, the
Vault serves several purposes. While the first floor holds
a few small side shrines and counseling chambers, the
majority of its airy halls are given over to the business of
banking, with acolytes of Abadar eager to serve any with
coin they would bestow in the god’s trust, while armored
clerics keep watch for ne’er-do-wells. The floor above holds
the god’s sanctuary and the quarters of a small number of
resident priests, although most are encouraged to maintain
their own addresses away from the temple. Finally, beneath
the temple lies the physical vault, a heavily guarded
storehouse where the clergy’s considerable fortune—as
well as the investments of thousands of citizens—are
safely stored. So trusted and respected are the priests that
for decades these lower levels have also housed the presses
that mint Korvosan coins.


PNG legati ad Abadar:

Ishani Dhatri (LG male human cleric)
When you know him first time he attends a kettle
boiling in the kitchen hearth until Grau and Tayce come
back downstairs. He’s just nearing 30 years old, yet still
only a low-ranking priest in the church of Abadar
