Thea

Thea is the patron of art, particularly those using a physical medium, such as painting, sculpture and non-military architecture. She is a peaceful deity, encouraging her worshipers to avoid conflict where possible. Her priesthood tends to be politically significant in most regions where they exist, though active worship tends to be moderate, limited primarily to artisans, sculptors and builders. She encourages the creation of new forms of art and new ideas in general; many new inventions come from her followers or clergy.
