Waukeen is the goddess of wealth and trade, on both sides of the law. Her most ardent worshipers include shopkeepers, members of trading costers, wealthy merchants, caravan guides, itinerant peddlers, moneychangers, and smugglers. She is interested in anything that increases trade and the flow of money, whether new trade routes, new inventions, or the whim of changing fashion. Those who take Waukeen as a patron can be reliably thought of as greedy, but the Coinmaiden is said to frown upon misers and smile upon the industrious and the profligate, and thus priests who bear her holy symbol find themselves welcome in many towns and cities.
Temples of Waukeen resemble guildhalls and often
serve as meeting places for trade consortiums. Those
who follow Waukeen's ethos seek to create more opportunity for all and see competition for wealth as one
of society's main means of progress. Thus, the faithful
of Our Lady of Gold often find themselves at odds with
trade guilds and others who would form monopolies. It's
common practice among those who seek Waukeen's favor to set aside a tithe of ten percent of their profits, but
rather than being given to a temple, the money is meant
to be spent to help a struggling business, to finance a
new endeavor, or, if all else fails, on frivolous fun.
