Selûne

Our Lady of Silver, the Moonmaiden, the Night White Lady

Selûne’s widespread worship and general popularity likely has to do with how broad of a pantheon she enjoys. The Moonmaiden enjoys purview over travelers, adventurers, quests, navigation, seekers of truth, and non-evil lycanthropes. The tenets of these domains attract followers from academics, wizards, simple folk, and zealots alike. The Moonmaiden is a welcoming goddess, accepting any into her fold who uphold goodness and battle against the darkness of evil - especially the dark void of her counterpart, Shar.   Each Shieldmeet, gatherings of Selûnite worshippers perform the Conjuring of the Second Moon. This summons the divine warrior-maidens known as Shards, who can aid the followers for a single night. The Shards are often summoned to combat great evil, such as sects of Shar. When the night ends, one mortal priestess is taken by the Shards to become one of their number.   Selûne’s largest temple is the House of the Moon in Waterdeep, which has the tallest tower of any temple in the city. Most of her other places of worship are small shrines constructed at roadsides or in forests on moonlit nights.
