Ildross
The Wild King
Ildross is an exception to the deities. While most came to help and aid the folk, Ildross was drawn to the animals of the land, heeding and protecting them. In time, as folk began to domesticate animals, he slowly entered the minds of the folk to ensure that they were looked after and treated properly. Shepherds, farmers, and anyone dealing with livestock are sure to pay heed and homage to Ildross and make sure that their animals are cared for properly, lest Ildross rile them up and cause them to go wild. His followers tend to the animals and the deepest wilds that no one else may enter. Because of this affinity many of the Fae venerate Ildross.
Ildross is depicted in many forms, all of them animal or beast. He is a great white stag in the distance, a coyote trickster, a watching hawk high above. His followers are careful as any animal they find could be Ildross.
