Description
''Boebar is the brother of Bosht, who created the heavens and the earth and the planes and all within. Boebar created very little (unless the siring of gods and demigods counts), instead being content to take a humble shape and walk around this grand creation, enjoying himself.''

''Boebar is said to take the shape of a portly middle-aged man in crumpled and travel-stained garb who walks around the modest places of the world, scrounging food and drink where he can get it. In some cultures, it’s customary to give a drink to any vagrant who comes knocking on your door at night in case it’s Boebar.''

''He has a coarse, earthy sense of humour and loves pranks. He is troubled by the tendency of mortal beings to worry too much. He interferes very little in the affairs of gods or men, except in sly, indirect ways.''

Priesthood
There are temples to Boebar here and there, but in human lands his is mostly a disorganised priesthood where the clerics imitate the example of the man himself. Many are wanderers, but many settle down quite fast, often becoming innkeepers.

Cleric Special Abilities: Once per day, a cleric of Boebar can touch a non-alcoholic liquid and turn it into wine, ale, cider or mead. He can do this with 2 litres of liquid per cleric level. The drink is of pretty good quality, unpretentious and drinkable. Additionally, alcoholic drinks are treated as Holy Water in the hands of a cleric of Boebar.

Cleric Restrictions: A cleric of Boebar might incur disapproval by


 * Refusing hospitality except in life-or-death circumstances; Boebar particularly frowns on refusing food and drink


 * Showing excessive haste; forgetting to enjoy life
