Aerielara

Usual depiction: A high-elven woman of unsurpassed beauty, wearing little except strategically placed gemstones. Her hair color is iridescent and her pose is scandalous. Usually white marble or alabaster skin.

Worship: Commonly worshiped by artists, musicians, bards, and prostitutes. Her clergy, both men and women, are always beautiful and charismatic. Her temples (which are many, especially among the high elves and the rich) are beautifully decorated in rich materials. Youths are often tutored in sexual arts at these temples before they marry. For humans and high elves there is very little stigma to patronizing one of her acolytes. The second-most worshiped deity in the Stone Throne, especially among the Isal classes. There the primary focus is dance and rhythmic music. In beauty hides thorns—her clergy often are also trained in poisons and unarmed self-defense.

Religious Precepts: Truth is found in beauty; ugliness is evil. Give in to passion—do what makes you happy without regard for the judgement of others. Spread beauty and pleasure, destroy ugliness and misery.

Personality: Vain. The musician of the Gods. Beautiful and sensual. Deceptively intelligent.

Home: Estate on Mara. Part museum, exhibition area, theater, and brothel all in one.
