Dibella

==Summary==
Dibella is the Aedric Goddess of Love, Beauty, Arts and Sexuality, and a part of the Pantheon of the Eight Divines. She one of the Et'Ada, the Original Spirits who took shape as consequence of the interplay between Anu and Padomay at the dawn of the universe. Like the rest of her kind, Dibella was originally boundless and ineffable, but through the creation of Space and Time obtained individuality and crystallized into being. She was among the Et'Ada who followed through with Lorkhan's plan to create the Mortal Plane, though it is unclear if she was tricked into limiting and binding herself to the Mundus, or did so willingly for the sake of creation.
Dibella is among the most popular deities of Tamriel, and is worshiped throughout the continent in a variety of forms and interpretations. Her myriad cults can range from moral teachings on love and relationships, religious artistic and aesthetic expression, worship of femininity itself, and even erotic instruction and ritualistic lovemaking. As a deity of sexuality, Dibella is often shunned by the more conservative cultures on Tamriel, who see her as a goddess of debauchery and denounce her priestesses as prostitutes. Other, more open-minded societies, meanwhile see Dibella as a goddess who embodies love in its purest form, and who expresses the beauty that can be found in all aspects of creation.
