Issek of the Jug (LL)

__TOC__
==Issek of the Jug (intermediate god)==
Issek appears as a tall man with twisted wrists and ankles. Issek is said to give enduring power to anyone under torture. Torture can be loosely defined and includes such things as a wife who constantly shouts at her husband or a little boy being picked on by a larger bully.
Role-playing Notes: Issek desires to help all those who are being oppressed in any way, although he is not the brightest or most even handed of gods. A step daughter being overworked is just as important to him as a world saving paladin fighting off the multi-dimensional entrance of a horde of undead.
Statistics: AL lg; WAL any lawful; AoC tortured souls; SY amphora.
==Issek's Avatar (fighter 15)==
Issek's avatar always appears from a male being tortured on the rack. It is the suffering of the mortal that brings on the full spirit of Issek.

Every avatar of Issek carries a great jug with him when he appears. This jug can pour out any liquid that the avatar of Issek needs at the time. It is not intended as a weapon and is almost always used to help the suffering souls that might be in the area.
Issek's avatar will first break out of the rack that confines his host body and then hunt down the person who ordered its confinement and torture. The avatar will pick up weapons and helpers as needed. After the victim is eliminated, Issek will disappear and return the body he possessed back to the person it belongs too. The body will be in perfect form and show no signs of the torture it underwent.
