Sehanine

Corellon (Husband)

Sehanine Moonbow, also known as the Moonweaver, is one of the Prime Deities. She stands for independence, secrecy and the moon. She is often also regarded as the goddess of love.

## **Description**

### **Appearance**

Sehanine in her avatar form appears as a young elven woman with pale blue skin and white hair. She often wears a silver gown that seems to flow into shadows at the edges of the fabric. She carries a curving longbow in the shape of a crescent moon strung with starlight. Her quiver only carries one arrow.

### **Personality**

Sehanine is a very protective deity, reaching out to help people who are in need. She enjoys pranks and trickery. She hates Drow and her followers make it their duty to destroy the dark elves. She is typically worshipped by elves and halflings. As a general rule, she does not speak in a direct manner. Instead, she relies on dreams, visions, etc. to relay information. This does not mean that she was incapable of speaking in a clear manner as she has done that at several notable points in history.

Her alignment is Chaotic Good and her holy day is the "Moonweaver's Ribbons" celebrated on the winter solstice at the elven city of Lyrengorn.

### **Tenants**

* Seize your own destiny by pursuing your passions.
* Let the shadows protect you from the burning light of fanatical good and the absolute darkness of evil.
* Walk unbridled and untethered, finding and forging new memories and experiences.

## **Biography**

### **Pre-Campaign History**

Sehanine is a secondary elven deity, and the second wife of Corellon. She is widely worshipped by halflings and elves, particularly the elves of Lyrengorn.

During the Calamity, Sehanine fought alongside the other Prime Deities against the Betrayer Gods. When Corellon was betrayed by Araushnee during the battle with Gruumsh, his scabard breaking and causing him to lose his sword following the injury he dealt to the Ruiner, Sehanine entered the fray and fought off the orcish god. While Corellon recovered, Sehanine and Araushnee fought often during the Calamity, a battle which threatened to split elvenkind in half. When Corellon returned he united many elves together, driving Araushnee and her followers into the underdark to become the Spider Queen, Lolth and the Drow. Sehanine and Corellon later married, uniting the remaining elves together beneath their linked rule.

Sehanine took on a more minor role, becoming more known for trickery and passions than the leadership of elvenkind that fell beneath Corellon.

### **Council of Echoes**

Sehanine appeared before Lindal Greenbottle in her temple in Emon following his initial encounter with the Council of Echoes while he was mourning Theodore Balmhand and blaming himself for the death of Lydia Starguard. She convinced him that he was not cursed as he believed and that he could still honour those who had fallen by defeating the Council of Echoes. As such, Lindal became a Paladin, serving in her name in the Echoes Crisis.

She later encountered the heroes of Hindsight when they arrived to Elysium following Riza Whispercreek's successful release of Tharizdun. There she trained Lindal Greenbottle in the use of her arrow, showing him how to direct the weapon. She then joined her fellow gods in a ritual to empower Hindsight for battle with Tharizdun.

### **Grey Frontier**

Sehanine reached out to Echthra when the warlock searched for guidance from another god rather than Pelor. Seeing the woman's dedication to her passions, Sehanine decided to reach out towards her and offer her aid. Her voice was later heard by Echthra in her dreams, shattering the obsidian tunnel that lay between Pelor and Asmodeus and encouraging her and Penance to forge their own path.
