The Maiden
The Mother
The Crone
The Maiden, The Mother, and The Crone weave the tapestry of fate; the material that keeps the universe in balance and decides the fate of everything. The Maiden spins the thread, The Mother colors the thread, and The Crone weaves the tapestry and cuts the thread. They are three of the very few beings that can directly manipulate the weave, bending it to their will to shape reality and keep magic in balance. While they create the tapestry of fate, they do not control it; they simply allow things to happen as they will and do not interfere unless absolutely necessary.
Some think that their fate is decided from the day they are born, some believe they have free will and that nothing is truly set in stone. These are debates that all followers of The Fates have had for centuries. They rarely bestow powers onto mortals, but when they do their clerics and paladins are very powerful and well-respected. Their followers are tasked with keeping the balance in the world and are expected to be True Neutral at all times. Warlocks who make pacts with the fate are the opposite of their divine counterparts; they do the dirty work, forcing things back into balance with arcane and physical might.
