Demigods of nature and other specialized areas

Syhana, the Cloudmaiden and the Lady of Color, is the goddess of clouds and rainbows. She is the daughter of Madriel and the elemental Syal, born after the Divine War to help restore the weather patterns of Scarn. She is worshipped by many of the good aligned fey of the land, as well as farmers, some desert shamans, and mountain dwellers. Her rainbows serve as bridges magically connecting areas of Scarn for those who know how to use them.

Aspharal is the goddess of flowers. She was a skyquill raised to demigoddess status by Syhana and Madriel. She is in charge of overseeing the blooming of the flowers in the spring, and is worshipped by some elves, druids, and clerics of Madriel.

Fraelhia, the Snow Queen, is the goddess of snow and cold. She is worshipped by some of the Albadian barbarians and others who live in the far north.

Imal Wheatsheaf is the god of farms. He is worshipped in agricultural areas, in Ghelspad primarily in Vesh and Darakeene. Stories say that he is the son of Denev and a dao lord of the earth genii.

Katashama is the goddess of the hearth. She is as much of a household spirit as she is a demigod. In Ghelspad she is primarily worshipped in Dunahnae, Darakeene and remote parts of the Calastian Empire. The priests of Chardun tend to accept her as nonthreatening.

Laathsaal, the Crawling one, is the god of snakes. It is believed he was an asaatthi elevated to divine status by Mormo towards the end of the Divine War. He is worshipped by the asaatthi and a small number of hags. Alone among the gods, he seeks to reunite the sundered corpse of his mother Mormo and return her to power.

Luchanig is the god of the miredwellers. He is a huge and powerful miredweller, and is an expert in poison and dangerous plants.

Trelu, demigod of Form and Design, is the god of artisans.  He is worshipped by artists, architects, sculptors, and others who rely on the harmony of lines, shapes, colors, and shades. He is believed to be a child or creation of Enkili.

Volskalka, the Rider, is the god of horses. He is revered by the riders in the Keldar Steppes, and was granted divinity by Tanil.

The Beastlords are animal totems.  It is said that intelligent and advanced animals worship the Beastlords as perfect examples of their species. They have very few human followers, primarily druids. These paragons include Cat, Dog, Wolf, Eagle, and Bear. It is not unusual for familiars and highly intelligent animal companions to revere the Beastlords.
