( In response to my other ask about the pantheon of gods)
Yes I would
This is gonna be long, expect multiple parts.
Edalehan Deities
Gwælbáeth.
Lady of Light, Goddess of Justice
The Goddess of both an ancient death cult found in Edalehan and that of the Goddess of Justice, Gwelyn, Gwelbáeth is the personification of the Dale’s tribal past and of the Houses that make up what remains of the past. In later years she became known as Gwelyn. In her divine form she took on the aspect of a winged she-ram, better known as a Satyr with a woman’s torso and goat legs, a pair of ram’s horns sat atop her head. In her divine aspect she was seen dressed in a man’s toga, one breast on full display- tattoos and all, while the other was chastely covered. Her hair was the color of the darkest of ink with eyes the color of the deepest greens was seen across several paintings born during that time. Scholars claim that her weapons of choice were an ironwood bow and axe, and from eyewitness testimony, her arrows were bolts of air.
Gwelyn was one of the few gods to have arisen, before the She-Dragon’s rampage. However, it is not known when or how she came to have awoken- if she ever was asleep in the first place. The Goddess of Justice was also one of the few gods found to be at full power at the time of the End. In journals and paintings dated around the same time as The Fell, Gwelyn is seen shooting arrows at the She-Dragon and her followers while the sea rises in anger at her feet. The goddess is also believed to be one of the first gods to to have vanished not long after the arrival of Magic. No one knows if the Goddess of Justice and Light was killed or not, however, like her daughters, she has not been seen since.
Dwæla.
Twin of Life, Goddess of Death
Twin of the Three-faced Life Goddess, Morcana, nine-winged Dwæla ruled over the other side of her sister’s coin, in the domain of Death. Specifically on where the dead dwelled, The Final Plains. She along with her sister were one of the few gods who did not awaken during the rise of the She-Dragon, nor have they been seen since. Instead, they still slumber in places unknown. From murals it can be deduced that Dwæla was similar in form to both her mother and sister, with goat horn atop her head and goat legs. Unlike her mother, she possessed an additional seven wings, the eighth having been removed for unknown reasons. Like her sister she appeared in the form of a young girl with solid green eyes and dark lifeless flesh.
Morcana
Twin of Death, Goddess of Life
The Three-Faced Goddess of Life, much like her sister, Dwæla, Morcana has not made an appearance on the mortal plane in eons. Instead, it is only her influence of creation that has been witnessed in the rise of new species and races that tells us that she still lives. In murals, Morcana took on the visage of a young faceless girl born with small horns atop her head and three floating masks, or faces, that she would change into depending on who she spoke to. Her true face was never seen, however one myth claimed that if one were to ever look under it, they would find themselves entranced. Like her sister and mother, she possessed a pair of wings, however hers had never matured and remained close to her body, unfeathered and burnt.
The Burning Stag
Master of Good Omens, God of the sky
The Burning stag, while ancient, was believed to be a strange god formed long time before The exile of Elves. Born from a backwoods cult, The Burning Stag was one of the few gods to have been awake before the She-Dragon arose as well as one of the few gods to have never taken on the aspect of a human. Fully seen as a Deer, The Stag is believed to have been hunted by the She-Dragon’s followers for three months and eleven days before falling to her merciless talon. He was the first to perish at her hands and it was his blood that many believed to have brought back magic. Or cursed us with it more like it.
The Deer God’s bones and horns make up both the Godswood’s throne of the Round Table, where King Dugant and his Mistress of the Hunt sit during meetings, as well as the King of the Deep Wood’s crown. Neither acknowledges the fact that neither worshiped the Burning Stag, nor that his followers have all since vanished past the Fell-Mountains. Interestingly a few of the Groa and Lilibuel bear shields with the aspect of a burning deer...
The God of the Forest
The Whisperer, God of the Mother-grove.
The God of the Forest, also known as The Whisperer and Bane of the Phantom was a possible Godling, who lived at the edge of the Fell-Mountains in what is Modern day Edalehan. He took on the form of the mutilated corpses of both man and Deer. With elongated limbs, rotted flesh spliced with hundreds of eyes along his flesh. antlers and horn ridges that ate at the festering crown of his head, and a twisted- doglike smile filled with jangled teeth that made up his mouth. It is known that he could drive followers of his and other gods to madness with just his voice- and some believe it was he who maddened the She-Dragon. His voice still calls for rescue and vengeance even as its speaker sleeps.
Not much else is known about The God of The Forest, other than the fact that he was born not long before the Rise of the She-Dragon and that he was turned to stone while in mortal combat with a woman only known as The Ghost by modern historians. His body can be found in the deep forests, just south of The Thuldarans, his killer's body however was taken not long after the battle and was interred in a mausoleum within the Deep Forests of what once was Dunholde, by a hamlet that claimed to have been saved by her while she still lived. The bones of her steed are buried below her glass casket. Those who journey to her resting place have noticed that her body has not decayed since her ‘death’; as her blood still oozes and her lips seem to still draw breath. She has not aged in the near six-hundred and fifty-three years since her death. A Mourning Owl guards her grave, though none know why.
Grima, The Crone
Crone of The Mother Grove, Seer of the God of the Forest
The Crone is not a god in the traditional sense, it is believed that she was once the follower or mother(?) of the God of the Forest, who was eventually given immortality and magic not long before the rise of the She-Dragon. Or that she was one of the first mages to be born during the age of the elves. Either way, she is an ancient beast,
It is said that both she and The Ghost are bound by the God of the Forest and that they will not perish until either magic is taken from the earth or That every God has perished. She is often seen as an exceedingly elderly woman with deep, purple and pitch black sclera. She wanders the Deep Forests and the various slopes of the Fell-Mountains in search of children and the lost to sacrifice to her god. Driven mad by unheard voices. She is seen as an ill-omen to those who travel in the area.
Though, there are times when The Crone is calm, in these times she takes on the visage of a middle-aged woman with ink-black muck for hair and funny lilac eyes- she tends to help passerby and claims her name to be that of Grima and that she is searching for her missing children; a girl and a boy named Lorelei and Zagreus. However, few know if this is to be true. When she is in this Grima persona she tends to give startlingly accurate fortunes and advice.
Domus
Shadow of Death, God of Guiding the Dead
An ancient psychopomp, Domus is believed to have never gone to sleep before the rise of the She-Dragon. Forced to wander the lands of Tor in search of the Dead, he was one of only a few gods able to survive the fall of Gods and the rise of Magic. Even the She-Dragon bade him credence once he came for her soul, or so it is believed. Taking on the aspect of a young man in a traveler’s cloak, his veil was a black as the night and his blade gleamed with the wrath of the last soul he slew. It can be noted that he was seen in the company of the shapeshifting godling, Rūn not long after the fall of man.
Rūn
Hound of secrets, Godling of loyalty.
The shapeshifter Rūn is a godling, born from the remnants of a tribal-woman and a wolf within an unknown Mother-Grove. It is not known how old Rūn might be, seeing as how they frequently come up with different answers depending on their rather weathervane mood. Though, what is known, is that they chose to wander the earth in search of adventure and companionship. Even while they are a new god, Rūn is old enough to have seen the end of the old world and the rise of magic in their human and wolf lives respectively. In their Godling form, Rūn has seen much, much more, though they do not always understand it. Recently they have taken up following the Psychopomp, Domus for their own amusement.
Rūn takes on the appearance of either: a robust Canine of impressive size- with silver fur and yellow eyes, or that of a human of either gender with silver hair and yellow eyes. Not much else is known about them other than the fact that they enjoy wandering and keeping their life debts. The only thing that remains are the eyes and color of their fur/hair. Yellow and silver.
