Celethyra

Celethyra is an elusive Overdeity who is said to embody the very essence of life itself. Depictions of her are rare, but when attempted, she is usually shown as a vast, ethereal form that encompasses an entire celestial body, radiant with a nurturing glow that pulses in tune with the heartbeat of Oerth.

According to ancient texts and cosmologies, Celethyra is the primal being from whom Oerth itself was birthed. She is life, and life is her; her divine essence is woven into the fabric of every living thing on the planet. So intrinsic is she to the concept of life that mortals can scarcely comprehend her true nature, much less interact with her. She is above worship and beyond altars; she is in the breath of every living thing and the cycle of every season.

Celethyra doesn't have traditional followers, as her existence is beyond mortal understanding and her influence is intrinsic to life itself. However, scholars, sages, and those who delve into the ultimate mysteries of existence ponder her role in the universe. Some nature-based cults view her as the highest deity, but they can only venerate her concept rather than interact with her.

"The Awakening of Oerth" is the closest thing to a historical event associated with Celethyra. It is said that when the world was born from her cosmic womb, life sprouted in abundance across its surface, guided by an invisible hand. This mythical event is sometimes commemorated by various cultures, each interpreting it according to their own beliefs and cosmologies.

No known champions hail from Celethyra, as Celethyra does not interact with mortals nor does she need champions to enact her will. The very essence of life itself is her "champion," the ongoing manifestation of her incomprehensible power.
