Description
Isbrea is coy, flirtatious, sensuous, and has a strong sense of humor. Her appearance is just a beautiful woman who is usually scantily clad. Her skin tone, hair, and body shape vary depending on the telling. Some say she just appears as the most beautiful woman a person can imagine, and her look varies depending on who is viewing her at the time.

Isbrea has often stayed out of the major events of history as she doesn’t see the point of all the politics and drama. She has had dalliances with almost all of the deities and numerous mortals at one point or another and has gotten involved in mortal matters only when an offspring or lover is involved.

Currently, Isbrea is well liked by most of the male Deities (and some of the female). The Nether Planes Deities only see her as a fun distraction. The Midplanes deities see her as a beautiful guest they are proud to have visit. The Higher Planes deities like her, but many of them wish she would be more involved with mortal matters and less involved with the deities of the Nether Planes.

Clergy
The churches of Isbrea very seldom take the form of a temple in the traditional sense. Some don’t take the church seriously because they pop up in cities serving strange roles. Some are bathhouses and brothels, focusing on the beauty and love portfolios of Isbrea. Other run orphanages and family clinics, usually inside some hospital or medical tent, focusing on the fertility aspect of Isbrea. Still some are playgrounds for children or funhouses, focusing on the joy aspect of Isbrea. Nothing is traditional.

The clerics of Isbrea are often wearing red or pink, sometimes white. They serve in the various roles depending on which type of organization they run inside the city. Some manage orphanages, others brothels. Some are prostitutes themselves, others are medically trained and provide fertility assistance for couples.

The main ritual performed for daily spells is performed at night before bed. Major rituals which are done to bless certain buildings or perhaps a couple trying to conceive often involve coitus in some form, or at the very least some nudity.

Dogma
Love your friends and enemies alike. Admire beauty, give it respect, and treasure it while you have it. Love and beauty are fleeting, and should be valued because of how temporary they are. Fertility and bearing children is forever, and should be viewed through the seriousness it deserves.
