Da'ir the Ever Present Mother | Viðer the Tree Spirit | Silvanus the Oakborn |
|---|---|---|
Da'ir, Mother Nature, is the spring of the natural world, the beginning and end of all living things. She holds us together and keeps our harmony. She is the Source that runs through all of nature. | Viðer the Spirit of the Trees is ever present in the woods and groves, his whispers bring renewal and telling fate. He is the Spirit of the Trees who led the elves from to expel the devils of Asdar. Even now his spirit is strong amongst our fae forests, guiding our hand and whispering of fate. | Silvanus, Born of Oak, is the spirit of the wild, his nature a virtue and a guide. Run free, spirit of nature, that we may follow in your steps. |
Da'ir is the goddess of nature and its cycles. | Viðer is the god of forests, renewal, and fate. | Silvanus is the god of wilderness and the wild, chaotic side of nature. |
The Wild Accord
The Wild Accord is a faith devoted to the wild and untamed spirit of the natural world. Followers of the faith tend to seek the outskirts of civilisation or to live in the wilds. Some priests of the Wild Accord keep temples yet most of its holy men are druids.
The Wild Accord is the ancestral faith of the Elves of Asdar, and particularly the Wood Elves. The faith stems from the Expulsion of the Devil Lords and the fae that remained in the Material Plane to in time become the Elves. The faith preaches closeness with the Fae Forests, the woods formed of the Spirit-Trees of the elven ancestors. Elves of the Wild Accord believe these forests to be of the utmost sanctity and will die in their defence.
A follower of the faith is called a wild one or aen fae (of the fae).
Ideals/Tenets
Harmony. The Wild Accord preaches harmony with nature. Take not more than you need and know when you are to give to others. Death and destruction should never be so strong as to break the harmony.
Freedom. You are free, as are all beings. Respect and uphold their freedom as you expect them to do of yours.
Cycles. All things begin and end and begin anew. Recognise the cycles around you and accept them. Oppose those who prevent the natural cycles.
Our Forests are Sacred and Stand Proud. The fae forests are formed of the countless ancestors before us. The spirit of our people lives on there and is without compromise.
