Dogma: Swanmay magic. Lead the Swanmays, Support, love, and care for your swan-sisters, and treat them all as equals. Walk the forest paths, and watch for signs of evil intent.

Day-to-Day Activities: Swanmays of Summa generally spend their time protecting the deep sylvan forests inhabited by the Seelie faeries and other allied creatures. They patrol the borders of the deep forests, and are frequently the first to detect the movements of evil humanoids and monsters who would threaten faerie communities. They maintain contact with other swanmays, gathering regularly to exchange news and information, and they time their patrols so they meet up with another swanmay at specific times and places. When a swanmay fails to show up, searches are quickly organized to find the individual and discover the reason for her absence, which is all too often a monster or evil humanoid incursion. Swanmays also assist any good beings who are in distress or danger, and have frequent contact with druids and rangers of all faiths.

Important Ceremonies/Holy Days: The Day of Tokening, each Swanmay will always celebrate the day of becomming, no other holidays or ceremonies are required but Swanmays of Summa are encouraged to spend time with the wounded and properly mourn the dead, and she instructs them to assist affected faerie communities in any way they require.

Major Centers of Worship: None.

Priestly Vestments: Those follow Summa usually wear practical clothing for their environment, favoring leathers or robes in brown or green, as well as comfortable boots. They keep their hair clean in whatever style they prefer. White feathers also feature prominently, usually in the form of a garland, skullcap, or a pauldron or epaulet like garment. Some prefer a feathered shawl or dress instead. The holy symbol used by the faith is either the swanmay’s feather token or a pure white swan feather attached to a silver chain. the swanmay’s holy symbol is their feather token used to change shape into a swan.

Adventuring Garb: Swanmays dress practically when in the field and in similar manner to their more formal garb, but with a greater emphasis on colors that blend in with the environment. They favor garments that allow ease of movement, and only rarely wear heavy armor.

Some of Summa's specialty priests are druids. Their abilities and restrictions, aside from changes noted above and below, are detailed in full in the Player’s Handbook.

• Swanmays of Summa must be swanmay humans.
• At 3rd level, Swanmays of Summa can cast whispering wind (as the 2nd-level wizard spell) once per day. They gain an additional casting of this spell for every three levels gained above 3rd (so twice at 6th level, three times at 9th, etc.).
• At 10th level, a Swanmays of Summa can craft a new feather token for another swanmay. This crafting takes a full month, during which the swanmay must pray and chant over the object. Generally, this process requires a small amount of blood from the individual the token is made for, and the individual must gather ingredients for the device. Each token is made for a specific individual and cannot be used by another, and the swanmay may not make one for themself.
