Bite Mark (Su) Zamakaya's unimpressive bite leaves visible bite marks that carry a curse that lasts until the bitten victim takes at least 1d6 days tending to Zamakaya's needs, worshipping it, or entertaining it—and Zamakaya can and will obstruct the process for those it doesn't like. Until the curse ends or is removed with break enchantment or remove curse, the target suffers –2 penalty to AC and saving throws.

Divine Gifts (Su) Entities that spend their time and effort tending to Zamakaya needs, treating the little god with reverence, and entertain it are blessed with a fraction of the divine power. After spending a total of thirty days of full-time worship, attendence, and providing entertainment one receives a single use of a spell-like ability picked from a bard or druid spell-list reflecting the activities the supplicant done in Zamakaya's service. The spell is typically a first level one, though people who entertained Zamakaya with a skill bonus of +10 may receive two uses of a single level spells, those with skill bonus of +15 may receive a single use of a 2nd level spell or three uses of a first level spell, and those with the skill bonus of +20 may receive single use of a third level spell, three uses of a second level spell, or seven uses of a first level spell. A supplicant can't receive more spells until the previous uses are exhausted.

Empathy (Su) Zamakaya doesn't speak nor seems to be capable of using languages. Instead, the little god projects feelings, emotions, and desires, and understands general intent of communication, though not the underlying emotions.


Zamakaya is a little strange entity that is belived by those who flock to it to be a divine being—and it certainly is bestowing minor blessings on those who attend to it. It asks for no services, beyond simple requests to be feed, bathed, and entertained, though it is a capricious entity, nosy, easily bored, and a fussy eater. Some of people who came to know of this entity speculate it is merely a child with a spark of divine power.

Zamakaya's would be priests and worshippers are often struggling to fulfil their little deity's requests, seeking food, toys, and entertainment that will be suitably pleasing. Some priests speculate those who are determined to serve Zamakaya despite the obstacles will receive great rewards in unspecified future, others are simply doing this for sheer joy of watching the cute deity's simple happiness.
