Faenella

Faenella - "the fair bard", Faenella is a performer extraordinaire and a muse of poetry and wanderlust, she is also an inventor of creatures. Faenella is the creator of the Faerie, who are considered her "progeny". Dryads, sprites, nyads, and angels (who are not Faerie but are of her domain) are all her "children". She is the patron of bards and youths who runaway from home to seek adventure, as well as adventurers themselves. Her gift to mortals was inspiration, and she created the harp and stringed instruments. Caravans are often under her protection. Despite the fact that her emblem is the wren, she loves felines (as well as birds), and keeps one close at hand as she plays her music. She is, like her other aspects, highly visible and often portrayed with glowing brown hair and bright green eyes, slender and Elven. Faenella despises undead, and will destroy them as often as possible. Her emblem is the wren.

Murrula - the goddess of beauty and gifted youngsters, Murrula sings mostly a cappella and is virtually indestructible - her creation is the phoenix. Murrula cannot stand bad singing, and will silence those who sing badly or else gift them with a beautiful voice. Murrula also seeks out young bards and will train them incognito (or one of her servants will) and make sure their wandering feet do not stray them into trouble. She is the protector of travelers and her kiss remedies hangovers, she is the creator of the flute and woodwinds. She is often pictured as a beautiful, slender young woman who appears Elven, with flowing fiery red hair and bright amber eyes. Her emblem is a phoenix.

Idon - the "reaver" is a god of roving bands of thieves; as well as rakish rogues who love and leave women, and mothers who abandon their children to continue their life "unburdened". Idon is obsessed with his own good looks; if he sees a man or woman who he feels "outshines" him, he may turn them into a pig. While Idon is very vain, he is also charismatic. Idon is extremely lusty, and once when a member of a clan exclaimed, "By Idon!" and a visitor asked, "Why do you say that?", the clan member responded, "Because half of us are!" Idon is the god of lust and wild music usually unfavored by others - his creation is the drum and other percussion. Idon's music is often too outrageous to listen to, but no one will ever say so to his face without risking his wrath, which can be dangerous. Idon appears as a black-haired and blue-eyed youth who is lean and well-muscled. While not a good fighter, Idon is an excellent backstabber, and he is second only to Damaris in planning a good ambush. His emblem is the heron.
