Tenets of Faith
Astara praises action over intentions, results are important. It is better to make a mistake then stand idle. Astaran followers do while others talk. She encourages her followers to find their respective niche in society and hone their individual skills to perfection. Astara praises creativity and invention - and enjoys when her followers find unorthodox solutions to problems. She advocates for community and order. Astaran follower dominated communities are reputed for their technological advancement, stratified social system, and harsh punishments of criminal behavior.

Astara despises the use of fey and fiend derived magic and actively encourages her followers to hunt down and eradicate those who practice it. She holds that magic has left the races of men lazy and beholden to foul spirits and advocates that it be used sparingly even when it is granted by her own power.

Many of Astara's clerics fall into the Forge, War, and Knowledge Domains - while her paladins tend toward being Oath of Vengeance.
