Melora

Melora is the god of the wilderness and the sea. She is both the wild beast and the peaceful forest, the raging whirlpool and the quiet desert. Rangers, hunters, and elves revere her, and sailors make offerings to her before beginning their voyages.   Her strictures are these:   ✦ Protect the wild places of the world from destruction and overuse. Oppose the rampant spread of cities and empires.   ✦ Hunt aberrant monsters and other abominations of nature.   ✦ Do not fear or condemn the savagery of nature. Live in harmony with the wild.   Attempts to impose order on the wild are the epitome of evil, and cannot be tolerated. As such, Melora lacks temples, instead, her followers congregate under the sky, upon the grassy hills and damp forest floors of her domain.
