General Physical Condition
The Lawbearer is shown as a hooded, armored woman sitting atop a throne or a throne of pillars, her face obscured or expressionless. She is often depicted with light brown skin and a strong but lithe body. She is described as one of the two most dutiful and self-sacrificing of the Prime Deities, alongside Bahamut.

Personal history
She is married to Tyr, the former god of justice and mercy, who was imprisoned permanently by the Demon Princes Orcus, Demogorgon, and Rimmon. Since his imprisonment, she is said to be in a relationship with Pelor. She is allied with Moradin and Ioun. She is perhaps the only god on cordial terms with Asmodeus, King of the Nine Hells, as tyranny and dystopia are forms of civilization. Her antithesis is Melora, the unaligned goddess of wilderness, nature and the sea.
