Biography
"The Moonweaver sends her will as the goddess of moonlight and the autumn season, as well as the patron of illusions and misdirection." Many consider the Moonweaver to be the goddess of love. It is very difficult to encounter lovers on a tryst, as the Moonweaver creates the shadows for these secret meetings to take place. "Those who work in darkness and trickery often ask for her blessing." There is no official holy day for the Moonweaver; however, her worship is greatest on "the night of the decade’s largest full moon." Elven astronomers record the moon’s cycles and how during these cycles the moon gets closer and further away from Exandria, and they can forecast these days with considerable precision. Many haughty elves use this celebration as a pardon to be mischievous; some youthful elves use outfits and illusions to play tricks on their peers.
Commandments of the Moonweaver
-Seize your own destiny and pursue your own passions.

-Walk unbridled and untethered, forging new memories and experiences.
