Maepheles

<--The Many
==Sin God of Greed==
I want it, I need to have it, please give it to me. I like it, it should be mine. Maepheles is greed, Maepheles is avarice. When mortal men want for wealth they pray to the Golden Toothed God. He snatches the coinpurse of the rich and keeps it hidden 'neath his bed. There are no rewards greater than those that shine.
His sigil is a smile with golden teeth or a rat with a crown. Maepheles always smiles, his body is plump and round, his arms are short, and his head is small, as he steps, hidden coins jingle and jangle. His followers know that true happiness is found in the soft reflection of gold. Many are secret worshippers of Maepheles. His devout are all those who value themselves above all others. Greed may make men steal, but it may also make them protect their friends and allies; just as a child protects their toys.

“A second does not pass by
That a fancy avoids my eye
I always take what I please
I charge every hidden fee
I can’t avoid it; I begin to deplore,
More. More. More.
They say my wishes are void
That my character long since destroyed
They are fools; I do not listen
The gold in my hand glistens
I chant until my voice is sore,
More. More. More.
I obtain but it’s not the same
As if I had yet another claim
I seize each want; I seize it all
Each desire has an insatiable call
My heart beats fast and with a roar,
More. More. More.
There is no way to contain
What I forever seek to gain
Attaining infinity is the goal
And greed is the unavoidable soul
Avarice is my veritable core,
More. More. More.”
- a well-known prayer of Maepheles
