Aelbwynn The Creator, God of the Elves
Alignment: Neutral Good
Typical Worshippers: Elves, Ontogshorsai
Domains: Animal, Earth, Knowledge, Magic, Plant, Travel
Symbol: A sun entwined in vines
Favored Weapon: Bow
Aelbwynn is revered by elves as their creator. Whether he created the elves, the world, or everything is unknown and a matter of debate among the elves. Aelbwynn is rarely worshipped actively by modern elves, but he does play a prominent role in elven sagas and lore. When he appears in elven art, he is portrayed as a young, virile, handsome elf of tall stature, wearing deep blue robes and a crown upon his head. The crown has a single blazing jewel that sits upon Aelbwynn’s forehead. Legends tell that Aelbwynn is the husband of Malunas. He is the light that gave forth life, but has no active role in the world’s affairs currently. This role separated him from his beloved as she watched over the night sky in the absence of light. It was Aelbwynn, in union with Malunas, who created the Song of Life and gave it to the bard Riordan to drive an ancient evil from the land. The Ontogshorsai still revere Aelbwynn as their primary deity. They see themselves as caretakers of Aelbwynn’s creation, and form the bulk of his active priesthood. These clerics seek to maintain a balance and to keep the forces of evil from having too strong a hold upon the world.
