Ehlonna (of the Forests) [Intermediate Power]:
Ehlonna has many aspects: huntress, ranger, woman of the woods, protector of elves and half-elves, fertility goddess. She is concerned with all aspects of woodland life including the protection of good humans and demihumans, especially (half) elves. She is depicted as a young, lovely female (human, elven, or half-elven, choosing which form she wills). In any form, she is recognizable by her startlingly deep blue-violet eyes and a very clear and fair complexion.
Ehlonna is kind and benevolent, but sternly opposes evil humanoids and marauders who despoil woodlands. Her faith is strong among the Highfolk (where she is the most widely revered Power), wood elves in general (especially in Ulek, Celene, and the Suss/Welkwood/Gnarley forests), and in many scattered woodland communities. Services of worship include simple repasts (often of uncooked, "natural" foods gathered in the woodlands), drinking of wine, and the playing of flutes, pipes, and lyres. If a bard is at hand to entertain, so much the better.
Ehlonna's Priests:
Ehlonna's priests are fine woodsmen, with males and females equally represented and regarded within loose hierarchies. They are skilled hunters and woodland spies, and work to protect woodlands against evil. |
