Sif, Goddess of Justice

Sif's domain is that of blind justice. She punishes those who do wrong, but forgives those who repent. Calling on Sif the Oathkeeper to witness a pledge is not something one does lightly. Her scales represents not only the balance between right and wrong, but also the balance of nature and civilization. Her connection with the lawful order of society has made Sif commonly worshipped among gnomes.

Sif is often depicted wearing a black-and-white stola and a cloth headband adorned with a fleur-de-lis. Her hair is long and golden, with a single tuft of dark hair. Many of her clerics also wear similar dress.

Divine Relationships

Sif is the wife of Thor, and her influence is one of the few things that can calm his storm. Travelers often thank Sif when rain and wind subsides.

Sif's favor

Sometimes doing the right thing requires sacrifice, something that champions of Sif are usually well acquainted with. Walking the narrow road between good and evil is a lonely path.
