Kvinatar (Keh-vih-nuh-tar)
Licking the matted fur of its four new cubs, a gentle mother bear welcomes her new family into the world. Their soft protests in a new world they barely understand are greeted with their mothers bloated teat.
Months pass by as the cubs mighty mother hunts prey to keep her young strong. Then, when the cubs are old enough, they are taught how to hunt. Their small bodies hide among the tall grass, and bushes as they creep slowly towards a young doe. Getting close enough, they strike, slaying their prey before it can understand what has happened.
The maker of life as it is known, Kvinatar controls the fragile ecosystem of all living things, ensuring that all things are allowed to exist without the rampant manipulation of sapient life. While intelligent creatures were made in the image of the other gods, Kvinatar had a more vivid ideal of what life should be, and thus created perfection in all of its many different forms.

Tenets of Faith
Kvinatar doesn't demand anything of his followers, but does forbid transgressions against nature, to which all things must abide or face his divine judgement. These divine laws are as follows:
1. Sapient reach must never outstretch too vastly, and any attempts to wrest the lands from Kvinatars creations shall be met with his most devastating wrath.
2. Sapient creatures must respect creatures in the hunt. All things may be hunted, but undue prejudice shall be met with the wrath of the perpetrator back upon them tenfold.
3. The forces of magic may not be used to manipulate the nature of any living creature. Nature must be left untouched to flourish in the landscapes that they reside. Any magic used to change the evolution of creatures must be met with death.

Divine Goals & Aspirations
Kvinatar strives to make Taru overcome by nature. Civilization would not exist if he was the all-powerful, and sapient creatures would have to survive in the harsh and unforgiving lands just as all other creatures. He does not wish for society to stretch any further than it already is either. The progression of civilization is a scourge that needs to be stopped at all cost.

Personal history
The last of the Pelta Gods to be created, Kvinatar is theorized to have been created after the gods had made the vessels for all of the original mortals. When Doppelt looked upon all that it's children had made, the idea of life other than its kin sparked the most vital of the Peltas Gods for mortal kind into existence. A being of no true shape, Kvinatar came into the universe with the understanding of his goal and purpose. He looked upon the vessels his kin had made, and gifted upon them life. Life which could continue forever, so long as the gods deemed it so. And then Kvinatar set about creating creatures to call it's own children, creating all creatures of the sea, the sky, and the land.
As the ageless years passed on, conflict began to arise between Narohtil and Kvinatar. Narohtil viewed Kvinatars creations as useless, lesser beings, not deserving of the great gift of life to which Kvinatar had blessed all mortal beings of. Narohtil felt this way so greatly that he instilled mortal men with a never ending hunger. This hunger would drive men to slaughter and feast upon Kvinatars creatures, and some of Kvinatars earliest creations were consumed in such excess that they were lost to the ravaging of mortal men. Kvinatar felt all of his kin had betrayed him; not because they had done anything, but because they had not. Cali'ebor had already forbid gods from interfering in the realm of mortal creatures, and Kvinatar was forced to behold as his creations were needlessly butchered.
Filled with rage, Kvinatar set forth to make creatures capable of killing mortal men. The first of his powerful creatures was the mighty bear, to which Kvinatar could not bring himself to make nothing more than a killing machine. Creating the creature with the power, and patience, of Malkorith, the bear was a creature capable of subsisting nearly entirely off of plants, never needing to shed blood in its entire existence. However, the bear was also filled with an unending rage caused by mortal men that killed Kvinatars creations without need.
After the bear was birthed into the mortal world, Kvinatar would continue to make more beasts capable of killing men, even blessing some of his already existing beasts with poisons and defenses to stave the onslaught of men off.
It wouldn't be until years had passed, and Kvinatar saw that his creations now slaughtered each other did he realize the vile trick that Narohtil had done. His kin had not cursed with mortal men with hunger, but had cursed all creatures capable of violence with the hunger. Kvinatar watched from Zelashia as his creations tore each other apart, and could not do anything to stop the horror to which he had wrought upon that which he loved so dear. Narohtil had crushed Kvinatars spirit; a scorn that Kvinatar has still not forgiven Narohtil, or himself, for.
