Followers wear vails in reverence and as a way to show recent luck trends in their everyday lives. As open and revealing as these vails are, they are never worn while gambling or in competition. This practice would immediately bring bad luck to the competitor.
Many followers of Anwa are avid gamblers that are captivated by the unpredictable lure of chance than by the games themselves. Cards, dice, bones, chips, and many other game-related materials can be found on a follower of Anwa at any given time.
Those who do not follow or worship Anwa directly still acknowledge her hand in everyday life. Adventurers especially know of her presence and how her hand plays into their success or failure. Normally, they say a small prayer to the Lady of Fortune before embarking on adventures or entering caverns.
Common Verses or Phrases:
- (Before a competition) "May the luck of Anwa shine upon you."
- (Men): "May you wake with Lady Luck in your bed this morn."
- (Winning a game.) "The Fortune Queen has her hands in my pockets!"
