This guide provides a concise overview of Tyr, the god of justice, in the Forgotten Realms setting for Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition. It's designed to be easily printed and used as a quick reference for Dungeon Masters and players alike.

Tyr: The Lord of Justice

Alignment: Lawful Good

Portfolio: Justice, law, heroism, chivalry, redemption, vigilance, and righteous warfare.

Symbol: A silver sword or a clenched fist.

Domains: Trickery (ironically, as justice often requires cunning), Light, War, and perhaps even Knowledge (for understanding the truth).

Worshipers: Paladins, knights, judges, law enforcement officials, and those who strive for righteousness and fair play. Many adventurers seeking to right wrongs also find themselves drawn to Tyr's ideals.

Tyr's Story

Tyr, once the mightiest of the gods of Faerûn, was betrayed and grievously wounded by the infamous god of trickery, Malar. During a conflict, Malar cunningly used his powers to sever Tyr's hand. This act of treachery continues to be a potent symbol of the constant struggle between good and evil. Despite the loss of his hand, Tyr remains a steadfast defender of justice, even if he struggles to overcome the consequences of that treachery and his following has diminished.

Tyr's Teachings

Tyr's followers believe strongly in upholding justice, not just through force but also through righteous conduct and a fair application of the law. They seek to balance mercy and punishment, understanding that true justice often requires a nuanced approach. They are commonly known for their bravery and their unwavering commitment to what is right. However, the loss of Tyr's hand has led some to question his ability to uphold his ideals.

Interacting with Tyr's Followers

Clerics of Tyr are typically lawful good, emphasizing the importance of fair judgment, upholding oaths and promises, and standing against tyranny. They are often found actively seeking justice, whether it's assisting those in need or bringing evildoers to account.
