The Raven Queen Goddess of Death

The Matriarch Raven Queen, the Final Dusk, the Thread Weaver, is the goddess of death symbolized by the profile of a raven head looking left. She represents death, passing, peace, and rest

The Raven Queen is one of the most misjudged of the gods. Often thought of as a deity that kills, wants sacrifice, and murder in her name. Because of this, she is seldom welcome in many holds or accepted by the general populace

In truth, her alignment could be described as Lawful Good. Once a mortal herself that rose to godhood, she has taken it upon herself to ensure the passing of each mortal being after their death. Simply put, she is a nonjudgmental reaper that cares about the souls of each individual mortal that passes through her.

Her main adversary is any being that would seek to prolong their natural lifespan by any unnatural means such as Lichdom. It is suggested that she can see or sense a mortal's lifespan and that she knows how each are going to die and when. She will often deal to prolong death that was undeserved or not aligned with their appropriate time in exchange for service and aid in ending those that have cheated death

The seldom followers that she has are often mysterious, preferring not to be noticed, live in the dark, work in the shadows. There are many who take their devotion to another level by adorning emotionless, faceless except for two eye slits, ivory porcelain masks that will never be taken off accompanied by a vow of silence. These tenants are only broken when entering a temple of the Matron and even then, they speak in hushed whispers with short statements and take off their masks to only eat
