The Hexad

"My mother took a broader view. She worshiped the Sacred Hexad—my mother's term—of Rillifane Rallathil, the Great Mother Chauntea, Silvanus of the Wilderness, Mielikki, the Lady of the Forest, Eldath the Quiet One, and Aerdrie Faenya, goddess of the air. I still worship the Hexad today, fervently and passionately."

- Lyra Sunrose

The Hexad or Sacred Hexad was a term used for the following six nature-based deities:

Eldath Also called "The Quiet One", is the goddess of springs, pools, streams, and quiet places. She is a protector of druid groves.

Aerdrie Faenya. Queen of the Avariel, an elven goddess of the Seldarine. Bringer of unpredictable weather and severe thunderstorms.

Mielikki. The Forest Queen, neutral good goddess of autumn, druids, dryads, forests, forest creatures and rangers.

Silvanus. The Forest Father, god of wild nature and druids. His worshipers protect the natural places from the infection of civilization.

Chauntea. The Great Mother, goddess of cultivation and all things agricultural. Loved by farmers, gardeners and growers of all types. The domesticated aspect of Silvanus.

Rillifane Rallathil. The Leaf Lord is the elven god of protection of woodlands and the guardian of the harmony of nature. His followers liken him to a giant oak tree so huge that its roots mingle with every other plant in the forest. He rarely makes himself known, but he constantly guards the forests.
