Liriel, Goddess of Dreams

Other titles: Lady of Sleep; Slumbering Divinity   Liriel is the manifestation of dreams: The act of creation from absolute nothing.   The minds of those who go to sleep fall under her protection, and in turn fuel her power. She assists people in their dreams by granting them advice and guidance (through relatively confusing and often incomprehensible means due to the unwieldy nature of dreams) and bridges the gap with other dieties who wish to communicate with their followers during their time of rest. Spells such as the Dream spell act outside her jurisdiction, and she is unable to gaze upon the effects of it, as if it had never even happened.   Followers of Liriel see the act of dreaming as a divine gift, and attempt to study and understand the hidden layers of dreams to interpret and catalogue their meanings. Devotees of Liriel often engage in nighttime rituals before sleep, as these practices are believed to create a sacred connection between the dreamer and the Goddess herself, granting one greater control over their minds and bodies both in and outside their dreams. Lucid dreaming is common among them, and is seen as a great honor when achieved.
