The Isisethren (she who returns, Spirit’s heart, the lady of balance)
Greater Power
Symbol: White Owl, Black Raven on a bare white tree
Home Plane:Limbo/Purgatory.
Alignment: Neutral Good, strong chaotic tendencies
Portfolio: balance, protection, good, magic, healing, wisdom, justice, shadow, death
Worshippers: The weak, the helpless. Those who have been wronged.
Cleric Alignments: Any non-evil, usually NG.
The Isisethren is a daughter of Osiris and Isis. As a greater power, the Isisethren is not worshipped in the usual sense. She has no temples, no clergy in the truest sense of the word. She is the guardian between heaven and hell and as such, neither heaven nor hell has complete dominion over her. The Isisethren is the link between the divine and the mortal realm, and is reborn again and again as a female (usually human). She is the ruler of Limbo, a place where the souls of those who do not fit into heaven or hell reside.
The Isisethren appears as a woman with pure white eyes and black hair. She is normally depicted as wearing black robes. A white owl and a black raven are always in her company.
Dogma
The Isisethren upholds the truth that might does not mean right and strives to protect those who cannot protect themselves. She holds that by fighting evil, you are upholding balance, because evil is so often trying to upset the natural order, perverting it to their own ends. No one knows exactly how old the Isisethren is. Some maintain that she is simply a reincarnation of an older goddess no longer worshipped or even remembered. Others believe that she is the last survivor of a long dead reality, who escaped destruction by casting her soul to the winds of chaos and Limbo. In all her incarnations, the Isisethren upholds the balance of the cosmos by promoting good, fighting evil and striving to keep the hordes of hell from destroying reality as we know it.
In one of her incarnations, The Isisethren was the twin sister of Imhotep and helped him achieve godhood status. Because she is the ruler of Limbo, she is frequently called upon to settle disputes between heaven and hell. The lords of heaven trust her judgments and the lords of hell are not willing to anger her. The Isisethren frequently reincarnates into mortal form, so she can reacquaint herself with mortal motivations and reaffirm her role as a bridge between the divine and the mortal realm.
Clergy and Temples
Though not worshipped in the usual sense, the Isisethren is revered as a part of the Pharonic patheon and shares a single grand temple with Osiris, Isis and Re-Horakhty.
The Isisethren offered shelter to Nephthys when she ran away from her husband Set. She is also a great friend to Nephthys because of this and charged her with the rule of Limbo when she was reincarnated into ‘mortal’ form.
