Waboo is the personification of strength and retribution. He will always avenge any insult against him. Despite this he is gentle, calm, and rational. He prefers skill in arms over brute strength, but also thinks that skill without strength makes an inferior fighter. Waboo fights evil and injustice. His favored servants are blade elementals. He loves to watch duels and swashbuckling action. He appears as a young human man with a tidy mustache and wears leather armor that has been dyed red.

His church has clear ranks and each temple reports to the high priest of the region. The temples and high priests stay in regular contact. His temples and cathedrals are decorated, but never to an ostentatious level. His temples usually have weapons, armor, and shields on display that belonged to famous warriors that died in battle. His clerics usually exercise a lot to stay strong and fit. His clerics encourage and help others to exercise and to have strong bodies. His clerics watch over duels to ensure that no one cheats and there is no foul play at hand. His clerics exact retribution upon the evil and those that hurt the weak and defenseless. His clerics are especially harsh on those that harm children. His temples are fortified places. His clerics teach that people must be strong in body and mind. He has many duelists and swashbucklers as followers.

Clerics of Waboo pray for spells just before dusk, to arm themselves before night comes. They have only one calendar holy day, the 25th of Obrate - which is the day that Waboo became a demigod. On that day they celebrate, hold friendly duels, and engage in contests of strength. Clerics of Waboo often multiclass as fighters, rogues, duelists, and swashbucklers.

History/Relationships: Waboo used to be a mortal warrior hundreds of years ago. He was a fighter who became a ranger, then trained as a swashbuckler and duelist. He specialized in using two bastard swords. He was incredibly strong and his combat style was a perfect blend of brute strength and precise skill. He became powerful enough to be a demigod and Darkzumi was his sponsor. He has no permanent allies and his enemies are most of the gods of good. Although Darkzumi is not an ally, Waboo is on friendly terms with him.
