Nbatu, the Hero, Saint of Honor and Justice

Stand together against evil and injustice, and the forces of darkness will never prevail.

Nbatu is the Hero, the shield of the innocent and the sword that cuts down the wicked. He believes fiercely in the need to do the right thing, no matter the cost, and that evil can only exist when good folk do nothing to stop it.

Symbols

Appearance

Nbatu is most often depicted as a dark-skinned man with a bald head and a curly beard, his eyes glowing with golden light. He is often depicted with one hand wielding a flaming executioner’s sword and the other empty and glowing with cleansing holy light. He is usually shown smiling, either a kindly expression when looking upon followers or innocents, or as a fierce grin certain of victory when he is depicted fighting against evil.

Blessing

When a Mystic of Alethos performs the Blessing Of The Divine ritual, they can choose to grant Nbatu’s blessing upon the target:

Blessing of Nbatu

You feel a deep need to see justice done, to right wrongs and fight evil, to protect the innocent and stand up for what’s good and hopeful in the world. You find it much harder to accept when a lesser evil is allowed to exist for the greater good, and feel compelled to stop such evils from harming others.
