Elandria
Elandria - Alchemy Goddess
Taken from The Great Almanac of the Gods:
The patron of lovers and families, she is well-loved for her kind, protective nature and is the most popular goddess to invoke during marriage ceremonies. Elandria is a god most often for the humans, a race that is well-known for their inventiveness in overcoming difficult problems. Elandria delights in shaping nature's gifts into useful things. She was the first to capture the pure essences of nature and to be able to concentrate that into physically solid or magically bound forms. Thus was the birth of the art of Alchemy.
Elandria values Home, Love, and Invention and will do whatever she can to protect those values. Therefore she hates the destruction visited upon cities and their inhabitants by nature and hence constantly strives to invent new ways for the races to protect themselves form the chaotic forces in which Lucaa revels.
She, even more than Aluwen, doesn't want the horrors of impermanence - particularly war - in the world, so she continually assists the races in building structures of strength and longevity. However, she can be a bit loose with nature, which causes the over-harvesting of materials for building and provokes Lucaa. Of all the deities, Elandria is perhaps most involved in the races' day-to-day life - leading some of the gods to accuse her of being a bit too meddlesome at times. Gentle and fair, she is always prone to chose the fastest and safest route to peace and believes in balance among the gods and in the world.
To follow Elandria, you must open up your heart to all those surrounding you.
