Divine Symbols & Sigils

Imon has many symbols and entities associated with him. Shields, towers, and stags are all seen as his manifestations in the Prime Material Plane; each of the Anvil Towers have a different prayer dedicated to Imon carved on their cornerstones, and Prasri shieldmakers often inscribe branching horns at the shields' rim.   Coedenimon is a massive sacred tree in the Diarchy of Peraserasia that is seen as a bridge from Arcadia to the prime material plane made by Imon to watch over Grausur and its forests.  
Sacred Animals
Scáthadóir is a mythical horse that according to legends was gifted to him by Nyx, his lover. This relation with an evil goddess is somewhat peculiar, as Imon is commonly perceived as a benevolent deity.   Deer are seen as his extension, and are considered sacred in Prasri animistic traditions where they are depicted as his envoys and agents; his avatar takes the form of a great stag whose antlers are made of branches, fur is made of grass, and body made of fertile soil.

Holidays

The first snowfall is associated with Imon among his worshippers; once druids fortell it, the day is announced as a holiday during which none work. Traditionally it is seen as a sign from Imon that people need to prepare their defenses against the winter to come.
