As A Deity - final v2.png
Textual submission

Qyreia is known as a goddess of, like many pantheons, multiple attributions: fire, beauty, strength, and pleasure. Given her affinity for fire, she is the patron of blasters and righteous gunslingers. While not part of her specific iconography, the legends of her temper and protectively vengeful nature has given rise to the tradition where, if (usually) a woman kicks someone in the groin, it is coupled with the phrase, "A gift for Qyreia!" Her aspect of pleasure is, contrary to non-worshippers' understanding, not merely sexual, but covers an array of topics that include music, cuisine, and various forms of art. As such, she is also known as a patron of tempered hedonism; not to be confused with the excesses of some of the other gods and goddesses of the galaxy.
