Amanareth

"She is warmth. She is light, that brilliant orb that shines with great augur and warmth. I can say no wrong about her, Great Mother to us all, Amanareth." -Book of KumariAmanareth, previously known as Sihranui, is the goddess of the Sun and Empress of the Celestial Plain. She is the most powerful being in the multiverse, and serves as leader to the pantheon of the gods of the Oneto religion. 
== Overview ==
Born from her father Iranagi's right side, Amanareth was previously known as Sihranui and worshipped as a male deity. However, after the banishment of her brother Tsuruname and the great Heavenly Split, Sihranui became female and changed her name to Amanareth, becoming known as the Great Shining Mother to All. As a goddess of the sun, she is the very embodiment of such and all things associated with it are under her rule and grace, such as:
* Fire
* The harvest
* Summer
* Fall
* Heat
* Those bound to her as her patrons
== Personality ==
As expected of the embodiment of something as warm and inviting as the sun, Amanareth is depicted as warm, kind, jovial, and motherly. She also possesses a trickster/playful air to her, and like fire, she is depicted as having great appetite, her favorite food offering involving anything cherry flavored. 
Despite her mature and more levelheaded nature, before becoming Amanareth, she was incredibly prideful and ignorant to the feelings of those around her, only reveling in the pride of being the leader of the gods and her status and importance as a solar deity to keep humans on Arth alive by moving the sun. This pride and refusal to notice how her actions affected others around her led to her younger brother Tsuruname, to become bitter and jealous of living in the shadow of his older sibling, and after becoming possessed by the Miasma and becoming Father Night, he was fought and swiftly banished to the moon. 
Realizing what she had done, Amanareth wept for days on end, realizing her mistake and what her actions had cost her. While grieving, she hid away in a cave. This caused the sun to disappear for months, forcing the gods to make a plan for her to leave the cave so the world would not die. Uzumi, goddess of the dawn and soon consort to Amanareth, came up with an idea to strip tease for the goddess, and the commotion of the scene caused Amanareth to come out of the cave, the sight of the naked goddess making her zeal ignite and return the sun to the world. However, despite her desire to live as the supreme goddess and sun returning, Amanareth was still upset about her brother's banishment. To remedy this and hopefully bring her brother back from evil, Amanareth created several mantras of prayer she and many others would chant to the moon every night. When Tsuruname returned, her demeanor became much softer and playful, and even more so when her niece returned. 
Amanareth also has a deep sense of responsibility and guilt for every important action she makes, as she is acutely aware of the influence and power she has. As such, she tends to not reach out directly to others, and prefers giving advice and guidance over dealing with actions herself. She appreciates the fact that gods have little actual reach to the physical world, and during her time on Arth to remember the land she embraces with her light, she gained an even deeper respect and responsibility for the planet.
