+**Nyym:   The patron of street performers.**
+<color #00a2e8>Very Much needs tidying up later.</color>
+No one really knows much about Nyyn, but one day, deep in the slums of a city, a shrine came into being.  Somehow, it attracted followers, with a bit of charisma, from the local common folk.  And before long, they were walking the streets, with simple marionettes, silly songs, bad jokes, dodgy juggling and other very minor street entertainment skills.  Between them, they collected enough  (via donations or very minor theft, scrounging) that they could maintain a small community around the shrine.  It isn’t a good life, but it isn’t a particularly bad life either.  Better than that of someone without a living or a community.
+Over time, Nyym has grown.  The original shrine hasn’t grown, but other, similar, shrines have grown up in other towns and cities.  In some cities it is common to see the street performers, trying to amuse kids, tell bad jokes, embarrass young women (and men), and generally play the fool -  all in return for a carrot, a copper or handful of chives.  However, there is more to it than that, many of the entertainers are very minor priests of one sort or another, and may well cast a L0 or L1 spell, if they feel like it.  While most spells are beneficial, they have less pleasant alternatives to fall back on  …
+In some of the larger shrines, you can buy (prices negotiable) Clerical spell casting, scrolls and even potions.
+Most ‘priests’ are  pathfinder:npc_classes:adepts [JohnB's Games]   Lay Preachers -  but there might be one or two with other (lesser) adept classes.
