Lurue

Lurue, also known as Silverymoon, was a chaotic good archfey who was often worshiped as a goddess of intelligent and talking beasts. The Queen of Talking Beasts was worshiped not only by unicorns, but various other sentient, non-humanoid creatures, ranging from entire species like pegasi to individuals within species that gained the ability to communicate. The Unicorn Queen was also revered by romantic and swashbuckling adventurers, but she was the center of her own religion long before humanoid notice.

"Chase the unicorn until they could see the moonlight in her eyes"

- The solemn vow made by the Knights of the Unicorn.

Description
Lurue manifested as a beautiful unicorn surrounded by a silvery nimbus, and stood about tall at the shoulder. She could sprout or retract a translucent pair of silvery wings as she so desired.

Personality
Although preferring adventure and exploration instead of battle, if forced into a fight she was an intractable foe. Lurue was said to use a unicorn horn as her weapon.

Relationships
Lurue was often said to be the daughter of Selûne, and believed to be the daughter of Eachthighern as well. She was the elder sister of Yathaghera, the Winged Queen. She served Mielikki as both friend and steed. She was a close ally with other benign nature deities like Shiallia, Gwaeron Windstrom, Nobanion, and Chauntea, and she was loyal to Silvanus.

Lurue considered Malar a foe, and the consideration was completely mutual. Lurue blamed the Beast Lord for assisting the Red Wizards of Thay in their creation of the black unicorns. Malar considered Lurue to be prize game deserving of his hunt.

Worshipers


Priests of Lurue prayed for their spells at midnight, most often in a moonlit glade. They were usually adventurers who traversed the land, seeking to better themselves by experiencing new things and righting wrongs.
