Hara

Hara is the divine protector deity of The World Smiths pantheon. She is most often associated with protection and motherhood, while this is true she is also known for fertility and hunger. She is depicted as a shield for protection, with the lower half shaped like a pregnant woman to resemble fertility and hunger, with the upper half depict the shape of breasts used to signify motherhood.

Unlike the other divines in her pantheon, she is the only one missing a gem on her artefact, this is because she lost it while protecting her followers from the dragon tyrant Marduh. Marduh is viewed as a deity in other pantheons but in The World Smiths he isn't seen as anything more than a demonic tyrant. The Amber dislodged from the shield when bashing against Marduh and fell into the dragon's horde, it was endless and was long forgotten. Later the Amber was worn by a crusader known as the Amber Heart, he was gifted immortality in return for his service to protect the world. Acting as an extension to Hara he would appear through the ages when called upon.

Drawings depicting Hara's battle show a typical female giant wielding the shield of Hara. Most depictions of this female match up with the Amber Heart Crusader, even though the Crusader is never depicted holding Hara's shield.
She is known as mother to the world, but not the creator as that is the role of Hanma.
