Prodigal appears in the heavens as a happy-go-lucky young lad so caught up in the feelgood moment, he's unaware of the wealth disappearing behind him.
Prodigal invites us to live for today. Prodigal also reminds us plans seldom work out as intended, education is rarely useful, and it’s best to spend coin while you have it.
Prodigal sometimes shares the road with Grave Robber and Vagabond, for all three love to travel. Prodigal sometimes offers encouragement to victims of Greed. Prodigal avoids Lust, for deep down he knows that Lust has been at the root of his problems.
Prodigal will aid mortal companions who carry its fate card in any action that involves pursuit of desire while shunning responsibility. Prodigal is particularly inclined to support these sorts of actions during Prodigal Week, or anytime for those born in this week.
When Prodigal is Called
If Prodigal answers a calling---when his card is drawn from a fate deck during the ritual for summoning aid from anumians---the seeker and the seer will experience minor supernatural manifestations of Prodigal, like the sound of festive music, the scent of fine baked sweets, or a craving for the taste of alcohol.
Prodigal will typically ask seekers to do something fun, sneak into and enjoy an extravagant party---enjoy another round of gambling or find a lover who mother would never approve of.
