Babeester Gor
The Avenging Daughter
When the Gods War perverted the world, Ernalda brought forth her own grim defender. Babeester Gor was born from Ernalda’s corpse, axes in hand, body ritually scarred to carry deadly magic. She destroyed all kin-slayers, all oath-breakers who swore by her mother, and everything which desecrated the sacred places of the earth.
She was merciless and cruel. Once she slew so many defenseless residents of Healing Valley that she waded breastdeep in the gore, drinking the blood of victory and slaughter. Eurmal saved some of the healers when he turned the blood to beer, which Babeester Gor drank to blissful oblivion.
Every important temple to the Earth deities is guarded by Babeester Gor’s initiates and includes a shrine to her.
Babeester Gor is depicted as a ferocious woman whose eyes are red with intoxication and rage. Her hair is disheveled and her blood-red tongue lolls drunkenly. Her skin is black, but her hands and feet are painted red with blood. She is naked except for her garlands of grisly trophies—scalps, hands, and male genitals. She carries a double-headed copper axe that is also decorated with her grisly trophies.
Although the cults are not associated, Babeester Gor protects and defends Aldrya like she would any other Earth deity.

Elves and Babeester Gor
Babeester Gor is the primary war deity for the Aldryami outside of High King Elf. Elves see her as the grafting of the Grower and Taker, the two primordial forces of the universe. She is particularly popular with rootless elves. Despite being sister goddesses, Aldrya and Babeester Gor are not associated cults and are always worshiped separately. Some humans believe this is because Babeester Gor is so closely identified with the very weapon that cut down Flamal in the Gods War.Although the cults are not associated, Babeester Gor protects and defends Aldrya like she would any other Earth deity.
