Solonor Thelandira
Keen-Eye, The Great Archer, The Forest Hunter
The Great Archer teaches his followers to walk in harmony with nature. Hunting is vital, but should only be done to sustain life, and the faithful of Solonor know to seek balance over trophies, aiming not for the bull of the woods, but instead, for the weakest of the herd. When their work is complete, both kin and nature are stronger for their efforts. In all parts of life, Solonor's followers think carefully before they act, as the arrow loosed cannot be returned to its quiver.
The priesthood of Solonor are often called Hawkeyes, and they resemble woodland scouts more than priests. Besides scouting, they often serve as archers in the military, work as fletchers, bowyers, and archery instructors, or even hunters and providers within their communities. The Hawkeyes do not gather in temples or shrines, but instead conduct their duties surrounded by nature.
Under the full moon, Hawkeyes and the devout faithful of Solonor gather in woodland clearings to honor their god. They sacrifice hunting trophies, but specifically, only those that cannot be employed to better one’s survival; meat, fur, organs, usable bone and horn, fats, and the like are never sacrificed, but instead sacrifice things like teeth or eyeballs, which serve little to no purpose. Arrows are etched with the name of the Great Archer and fired in the sky, with the prayer that they will pierce the sky and let the light of Solonor Thelandira shine down on his people.
