Early History
Liora was present for most of the Creation. She is commonly credited with creating the chaotic good aligned plane of Elysium, as well as many of the creatures native to it. It's also said that she, as part of a bet made with Vehestra, snuck into the Eternal Spire and stole the Secret to controlling the flow of time from Aeondir while he was briefly distracted, however it is unclear when this occured. While this upset Aeondir, it also removed her from his influence over time, leaving him unable to remedy this affront to universal balance.Dealings with Mortals
At some point early during the Age of Divinity, she created a University on Naherad, where anyone would be able to practice and learn magic. This University was later named in her Honor: The Liora University She was also one of the deities that wanted to prevent Gealag from reaching Gerandia and wiping out all life on the planet. Ultimately she ended up aiding the mortals by helping them create a magical ritual capable of deflecting the Asteroid into an Orbit around Gerandias Moon Adhacreg together with Greada, while Vehestra distracted the Dragons that were opposed to interfering.Appearance
Dragon
In her natural Form Liora is a slender Dragon with green eyes. Her silvery white Scales taper into a light gold along the bottom of her body, as well as along the edges of her wings, and on the tip of her claws. The scales on her chest form a six pointed, golden Star.Humanoid
When wandering Gerandia, and appearing to mortals, Liora often takes the Form of a beautiful young human or half elven woman. While she looks young in this form, her green eyes often still show her age to the careful observer. She usually wears long, flowing white or silver clothes, embroidered with green floral or vine patterns.Personality
Liora is free spirited and kind hearted. She rarely bothers with the rules, seeing them as little more than obstacles getting in the way of helping people. She's fond of mortals and has taken a liking to those living on Gerandia. In that sense she is similar to Greada, and the two get along well. Her disregard for Rules often leads to clashes and disagreements with the more lawful gods, as well as with Aeondir. She enjoys exploring and learning new things, and encourages curiosity in her followers, as well as expressing creativity, usually in the form of harmless pranks.Church of Liora
Temples & Shrines
Temples to Liora can be found in any larger city, and usually double as public Libraries or magical Schools. Smaller Villages without a dedicated Temple to Liora, often have a small shrine in her Honor. These Shrines usually contain a small bookshelf, protected from the elements. People passing by can make an offering in the form of a book or Scroll. Anyone is allowed to take a book or scroll from the shelf, to read, however they are expected to leave one in return.Divine Domains
