Idum

Idum, the Huntress, is the Goddess of Wilderness and Seas, embodying the untamed forces of nature and the primal instinct to survive.
Idum represents freedom, strength, and the balance between predator and prey, teaching her followers to live in harmony with the world’s raw beauty and unpredictable rhythms.

Depiction

Idum is depicted as a tall, lithe figure with sun-kissed skin, her hair wild like the ocean’s waves and tangled with leaves and vines. She wears a cloak made of seafoam and fur, and carries a bow crafted from ancient wood, its string strung with strands of braided seaweed. Her eyes are a deep green, reflecting the untamed wilderness and vast oceans she governs. At her side, a mighty hunting hound, the embodiment of loyalty and instinct, accompanies her always.

Divine Domains

Idum’s realm is a boundless expanse of both forest and sea, where dense, ancient woodlands meet the ever-changing tides of the ocean. Her domain is a place where the wilderness thrives in its purest form—wild rivers, misty mountains, and untamed shores. The skies are often clouded, heavy with the scent of salt and earth, while the sounds of animals and crashing waves fill the air. It is a realm of freedom and primal beauty, where creatures large and small roam, and the hunt is eternal.

Holy day

The Feast of the Wild Hunt is a sacred occassion dedicated to Idum, where her followers engage in a hunt or adventure, celebrating their connection to the wilderness and the seas. It usually follows the seasons of the natural hunt and harvest and the celebrations can take many forms.
It is a time of both reverence and joy, when they offer thanks for the bounty of the wild and pray for protection during their hunts. The day ends with feasts of fresh game and seafood, shared in community with friends and family.

Relationships

Idum’s relationships with the other deities are complex and built on mutual respect, though they often differ in their views of nature and order. With Chaon, the God of Law and Order, she shares an understanding of balance, but Idum resists any attempt to impose strict structure on the wilderness, believing it should remain untamed.

Commandments

Honor the Wilderness. Hunt only with purpose and take only what is necessary to survive.

Trust in the Sea and the Land, for they are your Guides.

Seek the thrill of the chase, whether in the wilds or in your own heart, for it is through pursuit that you grow stronger.
