Manari, Diety of Magic
Manari is a genderless diety of magic and the weave. They are a patron of scolors, magicians, and mysteries. Manari is also the diety of natural magic given shape, such as sorcerers and other magical beings. They were created at the beginng of time, and as the need for a interactable magic rose, Manari shaped magic into a controlable state, allowing those with a connection to it, though any means, to interact with the magic of Tovenet.
Manari does not hold sides in wars or battles, even those concerning magic, unless it is to constrict it's use. Manari does not support any group of mages, but in turn does not count any magic as against thier codes, including shadow magic. Such falls to other dieties of magic.
History

Third Age
