Diasilva

Goddess of Nature

The eldest daughter of Karn, Diasilva is a goddess of wild places. She extends her patronage to the untamed hill, the deep forests, the untrammeled bogs, arid deserts, and abandoned Skylands. She stretched her influence over all places that are far distant from civilization and the people that live in them. She is a patron of rangers and druids, offering them aid and guidance in their efforts to explore wild places and to live with them as much as they live within them.
Diasilva is also a goddess dedicated to preserving the balance of nature and the health of environments. She understands the value and the other purposes of a huntress. She will occasionally manifest in the mortal guise to challenge herself against strong and crafty beasts in a great hunt. In part, this is to keep the room in the food chain, like cutting down a great tree so the shoots beneath it can gain sunlight to grow. But this is also simply something she does for the thrill of the hunt, a deep passion of Diasilva. Those beasts that survive being hunted by Diasilva, or even those that prove clever enough to hunt her in return, gain her respect and her blessings, giving them magical power in addition to their wiles. Any creature that survives her hunts become true kings of their domain.
Her followers construct simple shrines deep within wild places. Should she give her blessing to a shrine it will quickly become overgrown and “returned” to her. Ruins of past kingdoms that have been lost and overgrown are considered especially sacred to followers of Diasilva. This recognition of ruins and overgrowth, as well as the thrill of the challenge of the hunt, makes Diasilva a frequent companion of Vister. She believes that his destruction of civilization will allow room for her wilds to grow and he relishes the connections between her hunts and his foundations of individual strength and honor.
Diasilva is considered a patron of werewolves and similar monsters, creatures with a bestial side that coexists with their humanity.
