The Church of Her Inimitable Joyousness

The Church of Her Inimitable Joyousness is a large colourful circus that runs nightly performances doubling as both entertainment and sermons meant to spread the joy of their goddess Lliira.

* Local Knowledge: “Worse part of the whole city getting plopped into the Feywild? The travelling circus ain't travelling anymore. Gotta hand it to them, they know how to put on a show, just wish they wouldn't do it so late into the night."
* Directions: "You can find their tents on the west riverbank, North Ward. A few little ones and a real, real big one. Major eyesore, obnoxiously loud, can't miss 'em."

When the party enters, read the following: *Explosions of colour and light momentarily blind you. The sound of the announcer's voice booms through the flaps of the tent. "Our main attraction, ladies and gentlemen, the Joydancers!" You feel the rush of wind on your skin as acrobats flip and dance in the air. The showstopper is the synchronised aerial formation of three stars joining in a point, the symbol of the goddess of Lliira.*

The concierge Greta, a lithe half-elf, helps the party find their seats and says joyfully that she’ll check back in on the party periodically to make sure they’re having fun and take food orders, before skipping off to help other patrons.

Religious Details: Chaotic Good.  The joydancers of Lliira provide a welcome distraction from the tribulations of the common people.  Their church is a modest but long-running curcus, and it risks pulling farmers from their families, knights from their quest, wives from their husbands, and children from their parents, all for a chance to be lost forever watching the hypnotic sway.  Non-worshipping citizens are often unsettled by the relentless smiles of the Joydancers.

Activities:

* Black Tent Clerical Duties: For a fee of gp equal to 200 times the spell level, Greta offers the party access to cleric spellslike lesser restoration and raise dead, but they'll need tocome quietly with her into the smaller satellite tents around the main performance where they can get some privacy. Followers of Lliira (or those who falsely claim to be and succeed on a DC 15 Charisma (Deception) check) have a 50% discount on these services. She'll introduce them to her sister Hannah, a surprisingly elderly half-elf cardinal (NPC 63) with the same cheery demeanour as Greta. If a receiver of clerical services makes small talk, a DC 15 Charisma (Persuasion) check convinces Greta and Hannah to reveal that Lliira has a surprising connection to one of the archfey that has made contact with Endercoast: Lliira was once engaged to be married to Cirrus the Jester. Cirrus went insane after learning of Lliira's true identity as a goddess.  (This could lead to the Court of Jest quest)
* Joyous Celebration. Followers of the goddess Lliira (or those who falsely claim to be and succeed on a DC 15 Charisma (Deception) check) are invited to join the Joydancers as they attend an after-party at the Nine Layers. An attendee of the party can make a Charisma (Persuasion) check with advantage using the Nine Layers Carousing table (IW 32) without spending any money.
* Work. A party member with proficiency in Acrobatics or Performance can earn money by spending a week of downtime performing at the circus. Doing so earns the performer a 50% discount on clerical services, a wage of 5 gp, and tips equal to 1 gp times the result of a Dexterity or Charisma (Acrobatics or Performance) check. The performer has advantage on this check if they are a follower of Lliira.
