Hestia

Hestia is the Greek goddess of the hearth is protector and patroness of the home and marriage, though she is a more gentle and affectionate governor of marriage than is Hera. She is skilled at cooking and fire-building, and she appears to be a quiet, motherly type, a quality that accounts for most of her charisma.

Hestia uses protective spells rather than offensive ones wherever possible. As goddess of the hearth, Hestia's symbol is the friendly flame; no one within 100 feet of her takes any damage from fire. Her church is a small, quiet one, but it has a loyal flock. Her clerics who go adventuring do so to protect or guard their people, never to gain fame for the church.

In Latium and the eastern Obsidian Mountains, Hestia is worshiped under the name Vesta.

Note: Hestia originally appeared in this form in Dragon Magazine 153 for the AD&D game from TSR. Her use here is for the purposes of providing context for the campaign only.
