Ecstasy Wanderfar

(a.k.a. The Learner)

A lesser deity in the The Leitan Pantheon, Ecstasy Wanderfar is fount of endless curiosity. Their clerics roam The Peninsula seeking out new knowledge. The Learner is typically only worshiped by gnomes, but there are occasionally other races that will pay tribute to them.

Widely worshiped amongst the gnomes, Ecstasy Wanderfar is rather aloof. They tend to spend most of their time wandering, learning, and protecting nature. Rarely does The Learner meddle in the affairs of mortals. Regardless, if proper sacrifices are made they will lend aid to followers in need.
