Oghma

==At a Glance==
Divine God of fertility, agriculture, and life, Oghma was a Neutral Good deity. Represented by a 8-sided wooden wheel. Since creation she had smiled down on the Fey-kin and humans who populated the world and paid her tribute, but recent calamaties have seen her favour dwindle across the realm.
She was well-loved by the earthen deities, save for her "brother in creation" Asmodeus.

===History===
Born from a grape-vine, Oghma's presence as a goddess has favoured the earth's cycle of life time and time again. She would heal the lands after earthquakes, regrow the vegetation after droughts, and push the waters of floods back to the seas. This was not an easy task, considering the conflicting behaviours of her fellow deities and her older sister Melora who competed with Oghma to be the world's sole nature deity. Nevertheless, Oghma remained patient and peaceful and began to employ the help of mortals to aid her in her task of spreading creation.
For eons the Fey-kin and humans of the world worshipped Oghma. This reverance continued until the coming of the Necrotic War when the mortal races became disillusioned that a God of life could allow such horrors to walk the earth. Abandoning Oghma's temples in droves, Oghma began to fade from the mortal world back into the abyss with only the most devout speaking her name to tie her to the mortal realm. It is said she now resides in The Astral Sea watching over creation while longing to go back to a simpler time.
===Even Death Can Die===
Upon entering The Tomb of the Unforgiven, Fortune's Triad discovered the fate of Oghma following the Necrotic War. Having sacrificed her form to entomb Vecna, Oghma had become a mystical Red Door that prevented Vecna from using his magics to transform the dead of the City of Midnight into mindless undead. More mysterious was that the descendent of her champion, Byron Cruentus, would be the one to arrive and destroy Vecna, bringing into question whether Oghma anticipated the final confrontation between the White Knight and the Lord of Undeath.
