The Wild Mother


The Wild Mother - also known as "The Mother"; The Wild Mother from the Feywild; Melora; the Wild Mother; The Mother of the Fey; Goddess of the Natural Forces; Maiden of the Deep Woods; Keeper of the Wilderness;

Domains = Wilderness; Wild Creatures; Wild Beasts; Nature; Natural Forces, including Disasters; Growth; Fey;

The original home of the Wild Mother is The Feywild Realm, but extends to wherever the seas shift and the land grows wild. She is creator of the Feywild Expanse. It was her breath that shaped the vast landscapes of The Feywild Realm. Along with Nokomis, Melora moved through Esau in the time of The Greening (The Vexil) to spread the Wildness across The Land.
Once the inhabitants of Esau began to develop and learned to live within the lands, that The Wildmother and Nokomis lovingly crafted, they learnt to worship Melora as a Goddess of the Natural Forces. As the keeper of the wilderness, the Wild Mother represents the wild creatures of nature, the rush of the angry rapids, and the heat-heavy stillness of the desert. It is mostly Elves and Fey who worship her, as do many hunters, accepting her guidance to exist harmoniously within savage lands. Those seeking safe passage across dangerous waters pray to her to guide them.
Followers of The Raven Queen also show respect to the Wild Mother as the caretaker of what remains when Death's work is done. Druids of Melora, the Wild Mother, work to preserve the balance of nature and civilization. The Wild mother prefers to wander The Feywild Realm and the Prime Material Prime, to oversee natural life, but has accidentally trapped herself in the Feywild Expanse.

It was the Wild Elves who introduced the Conibar Tribe to worshipping the Wild Mother and her daughters, Eldath (Goddess of Singing Waters) and Mielikki (the Forest Queen).


The Wild Elves are split - some have long stopped worshipping her - while others pray for forgiveness daily in a chapel made of growing trees [the only green area in the City].
