Kyrenar, Goddess of Protection
Kyrenar (Keer-an-arr) Skopundotter (Sko-pun-dot-tier)
Kyrenar is the Goddess of protection, and her physical form is a bit unusual, as she appears to the different races as a member of their species (i.e, she looks human to humans, elvish to elves, etc). This is by design, as she wants each person who communes with her to feel as comfortable as possible with her, which is also shown by her stunning beauty across all her forms. Another thing she has in common among all her forms is a large shield, a gift to her from Gryphalkur that was formed from the remains of a giant ancient tortoise.
Once, long ago, Kyrenar was the weakest of the gods and an enticing target for Gryphalkur, who came to kill her personally. For some reason, there was something about her that made the God of the Hunt feel mercy and pity. Gryphalkur spared her, giving her the Shell Shield to protect herself against those who wished to do her harm. However, this might’ve been one of Gryphalkur’s greatest mistakes, as she took advantage of his mercy to help protect the weak, giving others a second chance, much like the one she received.
One of Kyrenar’s central tenets is the protection of those who cannot protect themselves, and she sees those who defend them as her Champions. This brings her into direct conflict with Gryphalkur, who sees those who cannot fight for themselves as food for his predators. However, her ability to woo the God of the Hunt and appeal to his better nature usually prevails in their disputes, much to his chagrin. They both feel affection for one another, despite the fact that one constantly tries to undo the work of the other, bringing the world into a state of balance in this regard.
