Smajreki - God of Enchantment (Smaw-jreh-ki)

(a.k.a. The Wandering God)

Smajreki represents the idea of enchantment; of control. They are a being of untold wonders who wanders the forests of Ehvania, brining forth an unnatural splendor to the lands they pass by, leaving those who whiteness them stunned by their beauty and grace. They have the smallest primary temple of all the gods, as their followers believe the whole of the country to be their throne. As a result of this, those who focus their worship on this god have a great respect for the land and its natural beauty, treating every feature found within as a thing touched by divinity. This does not mean they do not take from the land, or use what gifts their god has given to them, but instead appreciate it all the more as a gift. Smajreki can be seen wandering throughout the lush forests of Ehvania, stepping gracefully over massive rivers and slipping elegantly between towering trees, even those too close to one another for a mouse to fit between. The people of Ehvania need not travel to see the god as the god often travels near them at least once each year. When this happens, worshipers flock out from cities to lay gifts before the god, playing music and showing art they have created as Smajreki passes, and giving thanks and praise as the god departs. All creatures, even those normally immune to enchantment magics, find themselves overwhelmed by a sense of peace, contentment, and reverie in the presence of this being. Many outsiders find the sensation to be troubling in retrospect, but most who live here see it as a great honor and a blessing to have their thoughts and emotions touched by the god.
