Stirna
Stirna, Primordial of the Stars
As Void appeared and created the universe, he spewed matter throughout all space. The first object and being this matter coalesced into was Stirna; the Second Primordial, Great Star Wyrm, Creator of the Stars. Stirna found himself in darkness and began collecting much of the matter his creator left flowing through space and spun it into his own creations. His first and greatest creation was Solar, the great star at the center of the system that spread it's life through all of it's black reaches. He then created all of the stars above, stringing them into constellations that glew with pristine color and brightness. It was Stirna that created the foundation for the world of Nora for his beloved primordial of the same name. As Nora gave her life to the world, Stirna remained above to watch over their combined creation and what events may transpire on it's surface. He kept the moon close to him, setting it to orbit the world and remain within his reach. He continued to weave the constellations so that all beings below him may look up at them in wonder. His form is that of a great Wyrm comprised of starlight and gaseous mixtures. Legends speak that he could change his length as he flew through the night sky, and at his longest could wrap the entire world with his body. Emblems depicting him either in story or worship are that of the topside of a black dragon's head, with a white star embedded in the middle. Worshippers of Stirna are typically powerful dragons or select Dahlen, owing favor to the creator of their respective gods.Stirna's Visit to the Surface
Stirna had visited the surface of Nora only once after the first gods emerged. Upon his visit, he combined Nora's essence with some of his own to create Sturn, his son made in their image to rule with them as a brother, and Firna, his son made in his image to watch over them from the skies above for any transgressions against the planet and power that was created and left for them. He then made a vow never to return to the surface again except to reclaim it from those who have sullied the gift they have been given. To this day he has not returned, leading many who have witnessed horrific acts and ages in the past to wonder how far the world will have to fall in order to have him acton his vow.
