It is said that the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Vryad's intentions are as varied as the forms it takes, but the road is often downward nonetheless.
Vryad is a relatively unknown deity, having few followers and almost no worshippers. Those who do worship it are usually insane or do so because they have no alternatives. That having been said, Vryad has no trouble getting people to believe or pray: anytime anything bad happens, "Damn you Vryad!". A man unable to get the woman he desires? Pray to Vryad, and he might stand a chance. Or he might die in a freak accident. A toss of the dice can turn your luck, and Vryad has a penchant for the hopeless. It doesn't like to be 'played' however, and will turn the tables on anyone who even considers it.
It is said that a one in a million chance becomes near certainty when Vryad becomes involved, while certainty becomes doomed to fail if the outcome is boring.
Vryad particularly likes the emotions in play when humans are attracted to each other, and thrives on miscommunication, getting a romantic couple on unequal footing just to see what happens, and parting those who obviously belong together. On the contrary, if two people despise each other to the bone, Vryad will go to great lengths to make sure they end up in bed together.
Vryad also wears the mantle of Death. All the Gods know that when a mortal dies, their soul is pledged to whichever deity they worshipped in life and a servitor of that deity (or the deity itself in some cases) comes to claim it (except in the case of contracted souls, which go to whomever contracted the soul, be it god or otherwise). However, when it isn't certain which god the soul belongs to (for example, the mortal was atheist, or worshipped a pantheon, or wasn't completely sure if he was doing the right thing), their soul is "judged" by Vryad, and their soul can end up anywhere Vryad's "system" deems "logical".
