Corellion (Cor-rell-ion)

Divine Domains
Elven people
- Corellion was said to be the Shaper of Elves. Her creations were to be the most fair, and kind people of the realm, but the elves of the Wych Wood beg to differ. This failure is used by many to be proof that the Gods are Fallible.
Arcane Knowledge, Magic
- She was said to have gifted her creations with what is known as Elven High Magic. Available only to elven mages, this magic is considered some of the strongest that was ever known. However after the Calamity, few know if it is still possible to cast such magic and fewer still know how.
Beauty
- Corellion is considered one of the most beautiful of the Goddesses and is considered the reason why elves are so beautiful. Her form is the muse of many, and the target of much envy.
Holy Books & Codes
There is only one known book pertaining to Corelion and her faith.
The Word of Heritage
-
This book is considered incomplete and so much liberty has to be taken to transcribe the writing. It appears to be a testament of the first elves and the role of Melora and the Fey in their Creation. It appears to detail how the fey are the creation of Melora, and how Corellion asked for help from her Mother in their shaping. It also appears to detail a bit about her sister Lolth, but it overall has a focus on Corellion and the Elven People. A few prayers are found in the book as well as some sacraments, but these are mostly incomplete.
