Annor

Annor, also known as The Guardian, is an Archangel, and a part of the Tyrranean Pantheon of Gods.
Annor's largest following is in Whytehold, due to his connection to honour, but he is also prominently worshiped across Tyrrus.
Annor is suspected to be a fragmented part of the White King, Solas Sorrowsong.

Annor is primarly a god of protection. Priests of Annor devote themselves to protecting innocents, and Annor's name is often invoked by the devout when they are in danger. Followers of Annor have even been known to defend those of differing faiths.
Like Aldin, Annor is a warlike deity, but mostly on the defensive side. Those devoted to Annor would gladly start a fight to defend an ally, but not simply because they do not like someone else.
Annor is also the Archangel of chivalry and honour, his religion demands that warriors follow a code, to remain disciplined and to be respectful to their enemies and allies. A follower of Annor would never stab someone in the back.
Annor's symbol is a golden shield.
== Mythology ==
=== Placement in the Pantheon ===
Like the other Tyrranean Archangels, Annor is a son of Aysa and Aldin. However, the legends state he was adopted, after showing great honour.
=== Depiction ===
Annor is depicted as a large, muscular warrior with skin of marble, lifting a shield of herculean proportions that is larger than his entire body. Modern depictions of Annor show him in shining silver plate armour, but older versions often simply wear a skirt or loincloth.
The Tome of Truths states that Annor was "A hulking muscular warrior, three times the height of a normal man, with hardy alabaster skin. Annor's great golden shield was even taller, and only the god's colossal strength allowed him to lift it. Yet the people did not shy from Annor's presence, for he was not threatening. His eyes were kind, and he stood as a great bastion against the forces of darkness.
