Faith and disposition
Wee Jas is lawful neutral, but she and her followers tend more toward evil than good. Necromancers and mages whose focus is on fire or death tend to view Wee Jas as a patron. However, it should not be assumed that Wee Jas is seen as the enemy of all that is good. As a patron of death, Wee Jas's followers are often an important part of a large community, helping citizens to deal with the most painful of family events. The focus on tradition, ceremony and respect for the knowledge of previous generations makes the followers and clerics of Wee Jas an important part of many communities.
Symbol
Wee Jas's symbol is a red skull with a stylized fireball exploding behind it, and flames licking out of the eyes and mouth.
Cauldron
The church of Wee Jas is a powerful member of the community in Cauldron, but Kord and St. Cuthbert are seen as warmer and more friendly. The clerics of Wee Jas deal with the unclaimed dead of Cauldron, and maintain vast catacombs for the wealthy members of the community that do not have a personal crypt.
Cathedral
The Cathedral of Wee Jas in Cauldron is an impressive and striking structure. It is a towering ediface that appears to be carved from a single, solid block of volcanic stone, impossible though that would seem to be. There are many local stories about the cathedral and its construction, but the fact that there was powerful magic used in its construction is indisputable, not that that would be terribly shocking for a temple of a goddess of magic.
