Calowean (CAL OH WAY AHN)

the Shining One

The beautiful shinning haired god of the High/Sun Elves. He is the twin brother and rival of Lyndranel and her associated Moon Elves. He by far the most beautiful of the gods, and delights in nothing more than luxury, art, and the praise owed to him.
It is said that each day, Calowean is roused by the goddess Ciuna to ride his flaming chariot across the skies at the head of his armies in eternal pursuit of his hated sister. Many of the tales begin with the god being distracted by something of great beauty during this endless hunt. The Night Goddess always manages to evade his grasp, and by the time he returns to his palace, only his attendant, Akion is able to soothe the rage of the frustrated God.
