Chevelure, Goddess of Medicine
Chevelure is a goddess of affliction and medicine, alchemy and aging. In the earliest days of Cynthia, Chevelure seeded the world with countless secret truths -- mysteries of medicine, minerals with strange properties, nexuses of magic, and the like -- which she his among Nesryn's wilds and the shadows of Evigheden's underworld, leaving clues where mortals might find them. She represents the duality of life and death distilled into a single draught that can serve as a tonic or toxin.
It's less of altruism that drives her; it's more-so discovery. She is one of the most neutral gods in the pantheon, dishing out beneficial herbs and deadly poisons equally, viewing the world as her laboratory. Mercy monks follow her teachings with great passion.
Ideals/Domains: Life, death. Chevelure appears outwardly friendly, but is cool, cunning, and calculating. She watches over the slightest sign of weakness or desire that she can exploit later. She teaches the importance of the circle of life, much like Evigheden, and she celebrates resourcefulness in any avenue. She cares not for good or evil, only the wise and the foolish.
