The Church of Mystra is a neutral church which allows all alignments into her fold. Guardians of magic and mysteries, we serve the plane of
Aber-Toril as teachers and counselors between states and countries.
Choice decision, and knowledge, leavened with a healthy dose of good for most individuals are the hallmark of Mystra's faith — though there are many of those who lean to the darker and the neutral sides of magic.
Magic is great power and with great power comes great responsibility. We treat magic not for the power it can wield but as a true art, greater and more beautiful then any other. We strive to use it efficiently and eschew carelessness and recklessness as it will lead to catastrophe.
.
We, the Mystran clergy, work hard to preserve all magical lore and sometimes in order to keep them safe hide them in secret libraries, private
safeholds, and well guarded research laboratories so that magic may flourish eternally throughout Faerun.
We also search out beings skilled in the Art, seeking to keep watch of identities,
powers, and behavior of individuals
likely to become magic-users of great importance. Not everyone can find old magic of note, but all of Mystra's clergy are taught to devise
their own magic so that magic will always be strong and hardy. They are the devotees of
mysteries and are constantly enshrouded by it's mist.
How do you join our Church?
You could sooner ask: "How do I touch the Universe?"
Simple. You do not. Fate will draw these mysteries to you.
Mystra herself directs us to those she selects - and she is always watching.
Over time, the existing members of the Church have noticed a pattern to her
actions. She seems to favor those whose character stands out uniquely - unswayed
by their capacity for violence. There is no need to look for her. She's already
looking for you.
