Arna
The Dios Disruptum, The Godly Disruption.
One of the most intriguing elements of Edren Faith is the god of Tricks, Personal Expression and Personal Evolution, Comedy, Partying, Rebellion and the Defense of the Defenseless. Arna provides a unique function also known as the Dios Disruptum, a part of the pantheon separate from the other tiers the Dios Ragnium and the Dios Major. They humble the gods. Represented as a simple shape shifting gnome with a crooked smile, they often disrupt the gods more dangerous plan’s prevent the complete subjection of humanoid life, and prevents the vane gods from overreacting to heathen acts.
In the myth Arna realized the people of Edren were living horrible lives with everything dictated by Myrrine logical planning. Edra both feared their wife's descent and begged Arna for help, Arna believing this was just, promised to do so, so long as once a year all insults against the god would be forgiven, that day is called Heathen’s day.
History
Arna is a rather minor god in the original Gnomish tradition mainly just a cult of drunkenness, however the introduction in Edren’s pantheon as a singular unique entity. The Histories are not clear why it was made but the appeal of the Heathen’s Day is obvious, free fun and a chance to pick on the betters.Cult
Active cults tend to pop up during revolts, but no real permanent cult exists outside the bardic colleges. Rumors speak of a dark cult of Arna that seeks to destroy the Edren Faith as a whole, but these are merely rumors, and the hilarity and exaggeration of these dark rituals supposedly in play leave few willing to believe them.Divine Domains

Tenets of Faith
The Primary following of the faith is the creation of art and social complaint. Arna rather you worship by you having laughter in your life, insult power, and write a comedy than begging on your knees, which often is why there are not many large institutions in Arnas name.
The Creation of Comedies in their name are common. Many such comedies follow Arna and Corellion's friendship as a comedy duo messing with gods and Heroes, but never the less fortunate. Of the pair Arna is considered the more clever where Corellon’s jest’s are more destructive.
Worshiping Arna is deeply popular with Bards and most major temples to Arna are located at the bardic colleges. The College of Satire in Arda, a city that for no real reason shares a similar name, seized on this and built both their college and the gods largest temple, directly next to, and exactly one inch taller then, the nearby temple of Myrrine.
Holidays
Heathen's Day
