Mareitus (Mare-i-tus)
(a.k.a. The Siren of the Deep)
One of the few true gods of Sankasstel, she is said to rule over all life that lives in the oceans and controls the Sea. She is mostly worshiped by sailors and fishermen especially ones who travel long distances. Her attitude is neutral and inconsistent as she will cause tsunamis and whirlpools killing people and animals for no apparent reason but at other times she will safely guide stranded creatures with the currents to safety with no injury. It is said that you can hear sorrowful songs sung by her under the waves for those who have joined her eternally in the watery depths.
