Enrdin, the Pursued (En-er-din)

(a.k.a. Galadaeros the Civil (GAL-ad-ÆR-os), Avachel, Quicksilver)

The dragon goddess of humor, inventiveness, and pleasure. Of all the dragon gods, she was the most friendly to non-dragons. She was known for being an unreliable messenger, and she has a few male aspects known as Avachel or Quicksilver, who are featured in elven legends.   In the Elven Pantheon Galadaeros appears in their creation myth, being the one who taught the dragons peace and civility, and is recognized as the divine known as Avachel.

Holy Prayers

Holy Rites

Galadaeros worshipers believed every time they learned or created something new, they were honoring her. They believed she presided over the first performance of a new entertainment piece, and performers, conductors, or playwrights often dedicated their initial presentation to Galadaeros' glory (if serious) or amusement (if comic).

Dogma

Galadaeros encouraged her followers to think for themselves, rather than relying on the word of others. The worst crime in her eyes was not trusting in oneself. She had little patient for tyrants --even well-intentioned ones-- and even less patience for cruelty or bullying. She taught that one must be freed of restraint, whether real or imaginary, in order to freely express one's opinions.

Temples

Temples to Galadaeros were rare in the extreme. It was more common to find one of her shrines, that dotted the landscape. Those simple, hidden places served as temporary shelters for her wandering worshipers, and were movable to the next town or dragon's lair at a moment's notice. Those shrines typically had a library or shelf holding a few books, with a sign indicating that travelers were welcomed to take a book if they replaced it with another one.   The few temples dedicated to Galadaeros were only found in the largest of cities. They served as much as performance or concert halls as they do places of veneration, because entertainment and worship were inextricably linked for the devout of Galadaeros. In smaller settlements, taverns or other places of performance often included the holy symbol of Galadaeros, reminding the performers that their actions honored her.
