+This slender taper is dedicated to a deity and shares that deity's alignment. The candle's alignment can be detected with the _detect evil and good_ spell. The GM chooses the god and associated alignment or determines the alignment randomly.
+
+| d20   | Alignment       |
+|-------|-----------------|
+| 1-2   | Chaotic evil    |
+| 3-4   | Chaotic neutral |
+| 5-7   | Chaotic good    |
+| 8-9   | Neutral evil    |
+| 10-11 | Neutral         |
+| 12-13 | Neutral good    |
+| 14-15 | Lawful evil     |
+| 16-17 | Lawful neutral  |
+| 18-20 | Lawful good     |
+
+The candle's magic is activated when the candle is lit, which requires an action. After burning for 4 hours, the candle is destroyed. You can snuff it out early for use at a later time. Deduct the time it burned in increments of 1 minute from the candle's total burn time.
+
+While lit, the candle sheds dim light in a 30-foot radius. Any creature within that light whose alignment matches that of the candle makes attack rolls, saving throws, and ability checks with advantage. In addition, a cleric or druid in the light whose alignment matches the candle's can cast 1st* level spells he or she has prepared without expending spell slots, though the spell's effect is as if cast with a 1st-level slot.
+
+Alternatively, when you light the candle for the first time, you can cast the _gate_ spell with it. Doing so destroys the candle.
