Ylphine Deity of Textiles and Fashion
Ylphine is a gentle and devoted goddess, adored by a small but unwavering following. Merchants who trade in fine fabrics seek her blessings for prosperity, while women and artisans alike turn to her for guidance on style, elegance, and the art of presentation. Even enchanters revere her for her unmatched wisdom on the perfect materials for magical weaving. Though few worship her purely out of love, Ylphine gives freely of her time and counsel, often walking the surface of Baltharos to share her warmth, grace, and craft with mortals who seek her aid.
Once a humble handmaiden to a noblewoman, Ylphine’s love for textiles and fashion was unparalleled. When Nero, the god of Order, offered her divinity, she initially declined, content with her mortal joys. Only upon realizing she could use her gifts to uplift and inspire others did she accept godhood, becoming a radiant figure of guidance and creativity.
