Lunarken

Domains: Transformation
Symbol: A wolves howl over a moon
Alignment: CN
Power Rating: Lesser
Realms: The Shadowfell
Lunarken stands tall and formidable, a deity whose form blurs the line between beast and divinity. Cloaked in a mantle as dark as the Shadowfell itself, he wields a staff topped with an artifact that seems to be a remnant of the moon's own essence. His eyes, glowing with a fierce golden light, hold the untamed spirit of every werewolf that roams the night. His snarling visage inspires both reverence and fear, a fitting countenance for the lord of lycanthropes.
Born from the primal fears and respect that the creatures of the night command, Lunarken ascended as a deity by embodying the essence of the werewolf—the duality of man and beast. His followers, known as the Kin of the Lunar Tread, are not only werewolves but those who respect the balance of nature and the cycle of predator and prey.
Temples dedicated to Lunarken are often found in the deepest parts of ancient forests or hidden within caverns where moonlight seeps through cracks in the stone. In these sacred spaces, his acolytes gather under the call of the wild, to draw upon their god's strength and to celebrate the beast within through rituals that often coincide with the phases of the moon.
To follow Lunarken is to embrace one's inner nature, to understand the power of transformation and to respect the ferocity and the freedom that the wolf embodies. His divine guidance is sought in times of change, in moments requiring adaptation and strength, and in the embrace of one's own untamed, feral nature.
