Cailleach: Goddess of Plants and Trees
Description: Pale-skinned, green-eyed and with long blonde hair, Cailleach has slender elongated ears and defined cheekbones and has an emerald green shard embedded into her right hand. She has a spiralling ivory horn jutting from the center of her forehead and her body is shrouded in a light-green glow. Dressed in a flowing green and yellow sundress plaited with rarest of flora in the cosmos, Cailleach’s passage inspires rapid floral growth in nearby areas.
Lore: Once a sophist tasked with upkeep of Aucturn, Cailleach created the art of Chloromancy after Crom’s first invasion, greatly reducing the time it took to regrow Aucturn’s razed forests and groves. Cailleach’s love for the woods has permeated every aspect of her creations, her mortal guardians are biosemiotic, born with the gift to feel the innate feelings of any plants in their presence.
