Melarue

Melarue Falaenna Kyberos was a singer in life who ascended after being burned alive in her opera house by a spurned human king. 
== Appearance ==
She appeared as she did in life, a tall, pale elven woman with delicate features with golden eyes and hair. She typically dresses in fine silks, though her fashions run in line with whatever mortal style strikes her fancy.
== Description ==
Melarue is the patron goddess of the arts, and the mortal aspect of creativity and ingenuity. In life, she was a singer who defied an emperor, and she died with her opera house burning down around her, still singing in defiance as the smoke choked her lungs. Her death had the opposite effect- the empire that burned his is long forgotten, destroyed in the rebellion that Melarue’s death incited among the people, and a new opera house was erected in her honor on the old site, one of the burned beams still displayed prominently. This new building serves as her main temple and is home to the Harmonies, performers that train at the opera house and are sent out into the world to bring art and beauty to the farthest reaches.
Among the Council, Melarue finds allies among those that oppose tyranny and evil. She has formed a fast and unusual friendship with Uurim Ord, the Forgemaster, with whom she competes to see who can complete the “Ultimate Craft”. Neither believes it is a pursuit that can be completed, but they enjoy pushing each other to greater heights. She is also a member of the elven pantheon, and beloved among them.
Melarue’s Holy Day is marked on the 24th of her month, and marks the day the original opera house burned.
== Trivia ==
* While Melarue is the Muse and the very goddess of fine arts, she loves the nonsense that is Star Walk.
