Wee Jas (wee jass), deity of death and magic, is most often portrayed as a stunning woman dressed in a beautiful gown, wearing some piece of jewelry with a skull motif. Wee Jas is a demanding deity who expects obedience from her followers. She respects Boccob, but the two do not have an alliance.

Wee Jas appears as an attractive woman who never diminishes her awe ability when appearing to mortals. She wears beautiful and expensive gowns and delights in changing them often (instantly, by magic). If she gives a gown to a woman, it will act as a cloak of protection +3 for the next 72 hours.

Wee Jas promotes using spells and magic items (though many of her followers insist she favors the creation of such things). Wee Jas tells her followers that magic is the key to all things. Wee Jas promises that understanding, personal power, security, order, and control over fate come with the study of magic. She admonishes her followers to respect those who came before, because they left their knowledge and died to make room for them. She reminds them that death is inevitable, but she promises that their learning and memory will be honored by those who come after.

She is not on good terms with any chaotic deity. She is favored by Phaulkon among the Suloise deities of Good alignment and by Bralm among the Evil Suel deities. She is on favorable terms with all lawful deities because she is known to uphold law above all else. Demons and all other Chaotic figures loathe and despise her. Chaotic undead avoid her, but must obey her if she commands them into service.

Her clergy are always Lawful, and within any particular church they will all be of the same alignment (50% Lawful Neutral, 30% Lawful Evil, and 20% Lawful Good). Members of her clergy wear black vestments if Good, Gray if Neutral, and White if Evil. All of her churches are huge, elaborate structures, and services to her are long and complex affairs lasting for hours.

Wee Jas is worshiped in highly Lawful and civilized communities including Lo Reltarma, the Scarlet Brotherhood, and the Theocracy of the Pale.

CLERIC ABILITIES

Clerics of Wee Jas receive a special bonus reduced casting time for their spells. 

Clerics of levels 1-5 can cast 1st and 2nd level spells in one less segment than normal; at levels 6-10, her clerics can cast their 1st and 2nd level spells in two less segments; at levels 11-15, they can also cast 3rd and 4th level spells one segment faster than normal. At level 16 and above, clerics of Wee Jas can cast 3rd and 4th level spells in two segments less time, and 5th level spells in one segment less. Any spell reduced to a casting time of zero or less by these bonuses is considered to have a casting time of ½ segment. In any case, the cleric can only cast one spell per round.

Access to these abilities requires a cleric spend 10% more experience points per level for advancement and this must be selected during character creation.

Wee Jas is loath to allow anyone to be raised or resurrected who is lower than 9th level or not Lawful. It is 50% likely that she will not allow her clergy to raise a being who is Neutral with respect to Law and Chaos, and there is only a 15% chance that she will allow the raising of a Chaotic creature or character. A priest of Wee Jas who goes against her wishes or does not consult her in the matter of raising dead will be demoted one experience level and forfeit three levels worth of spell casting ability until he or she performs an atonement.
