Inventions are expensive, and this one doesn't contribute to city building or larger development of the economy. What are you willing to pay me?

Me, Calistria, and Irori are willing to put together this much intervention budget for it.

Close, but not quite enough. Ask Nethys to contribute, he likes magical inventions.

Fuck. 

Alright, she'll approach Nethys.

Hey Nethys, I have a proposal for a magical invent- 

Yes! But only because of your lover with all the selves. She was very convincing.

Uh, what?

Was I unclear? 

Go back to Abadar and say your piece.

Oooooookay.

Hey Abadar, Nethys agreed.

Good. The most efficient way to do this is to get Desna to send a dream about it to a particular individual... 

Just a moment while I write the contract.

This is wonderful! I would have sponsored it had I known.

Yes, well, the point was largely to get the Neutral deities to pay for it.

Who are you sending this dream to?

This particular mortal.

Hey, I know her!

Have a Cleric level.

And in an upscale adventurer brothel in Absalom, a casual devotee of Shelyn wakes from a wet dream with the image of a buzzing device pressed right against her sex, and the impression of a distant woman's voice... 

And discovers that she suddenly has a cleric level.

Clearly she's just gotten a dream from Calistria or Shelyn. About a sex toy. 

Wow, big responsibility. She had better not screw this up or she's fucked, and not in the nice way. 

She goes and talks to a wizard who's one of her clients.

The wizard knows people who know people.

It's not a very hard invention, as things go. It's a little surprising it hasn't been created yet. But it'll take a little while anyway.

In the meantime, she tries to channel her newfound powers through the medium of a songbird charm lent to her by a cleric she knows. 

It doesn't work. 

Not Shelyn, then. 

Calistria?

She tries again with a charm of three daggers. That doesn't work either. 

... some other deity?

(She should be remembering about now...)

There was something else, in the dream. The taste of... it was a fruit. Something sweet. 

She tries with an apple. It doesn't work.

Getting closer.

It tasted like... blackberries. 

She tries with the blackberry.

She channels positive energy. 

She's been chosen by a... new good or neutral goddess? Or maybe some obscure empyreal lord. With the symbol of a blackberry. And her domain involves sex toys. 

And she chose her. Even though she's a whore. 

Huh. 

There she goes, her first game piece. The intervention was pretty cheap, since she was able to piggy-back on top of the dream Desna was already sending. 

Now let's see what she does.

She doesn't know much. Just the taste of blackberries, the positive channel, the toy. The fact that she was chosen, and not anyone else at the brothel. 

She preaches a little. About the Lady of Blackberries, who believes everyone is allowed pleasure. That's a safe guess. That sexuality is not wholly the provenance of the evil gods. That a whore can be a cleric. She advocates for sex workers like herself. She keeps sleeping with adventurers. Word spreads. She doesn't leave the brothel; she's doing more good here than off adventuring. 

She doesn't feel like there's much more to share, yet.

The wizard gets back to her with a prototype. It goes buzz.
