Taal

Kurnous

Taal is one of the older gods of the Human tribesmen that created the Empire. He is a member of the 'northern' or 'country' family of gods. He is the God of Nature, the Lord of Beasts, Mountains and Forests. Taal rules nature and is considered "King of the Gods" by his followers. He claims the wild places as his domain and is primarily worshipped by hardy woodsmen, trackers, and rangers. His wife is Rhya, the Earth Mother, his brother Ulric, the God of Winter and Wolves, and his son Manann, God of the Sea. He is known for his volatile nature and urge to hunt. Like Nature, Taal is often viewed as indifferent to mortal concerns.
