For a game in Savannah, GA, I'm considering an Emissary of Power with some sponsored magic from some loa--I'm thinking either Baron La Croix or Baron Samedi.  Any ideas on what kind of benefits that might have?  I'm thinking I might satisfy the Catch against Undead, and perhaps get bonuses towards Healing magic.
I don't believe in things that go bump in the night.  It's more like a thud...

One, two!  One, two!  And through, and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went gallumphing back.

Champion of the Phoenix.

This whole idea is just AWESOME!  I'm going to adopt it as well.  Thanks!

Champion of the Phoenix.

The Phoenix Spirits of Hiroshima and Nagasaki would be EPICALLY powerful. Like, rivals of the Faerie Queens powerful. Which could be a really neat "loophole"-- maybe faerie magic just plain doesn't work inside the boundaries of those cities.

Just a quick thought off the top of my head.

I love the phoenix/thunderbird idea Ryanroyce, it works really well!

In my game there are two emissaries, one is the middleman for Mithras and the other is led by the Lady of the Lake.

Also, another player used to be an emissary for Apollyon after finding a powerful item but is now trying to use it for good. She's basically a recreation of Spawn but without needing to die first :).
