Hailing originally from the world of Greyhawk, Charmalaine is a bold and adventurous halfling lass who was sponsored to godhood by the combined efforts of Brandobaris and Fharlanghn. She gained her nickname “the Lucky Ghost” from her ability to leave her body to scout ahead in spirit-form. In this form, she is believed to warn halfling adventurers of impending danger. Charmalaine is a young halfling woman with alert eyes, black oiled leather armor, and boots coated in mud. She carries a mace called Fair Warning, a title it earns from its ability to shout warnings to her if she is somehow taken by surprise, and is usually seen with Xaphan, her ferret familiar. She is energetic, spontaneous, and fearless.
Charmalaine preaches vigilance and attention to one’s environment. Her followers are urged to hone their reflexes, to be quick on their feet, to enjoy exploration but also safety. They are taught that too many material things can be too much weight.
Charmalaine is one of several obscure racial deities who received a 5th edition update and a crossover into "core" canon in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes.
