Temple of the Arch Heart

Corellon attracts many artists, bards, and mages to his Temple.
But while the Arch-Heart is mostly known as the god of art and astronomy to non-elves, his own children also know him as the defender of elvenkind. He gives his blessings to those who oppose the schemes of Llolth, and the elite Bladesingers consider him their patron.
Temples dedicated to Corellon are places of great beauty, decorated with the smooth, clean lines and bright colors of elven art. The ceilings are often domed, with elaborate frescos or inlays depicting the constellations, and there are windows and skylights through which visitors can view the moon and stars. Rich incense and music fills the air on Lunasday nights. Altars are adorned with offerings of beautiful things created by worshipers and pilgrims.

Tenets of Faith

  • Create, inspire, and find beauty in all that you do.
  • Follow the echoes of lost magics, forgotten sites, and an­cient art, for within these lie the Arch Heart's first works.
  • Combat the followers of Lolth wherever they might be.

Worship

Temples of Corellon usually hold their services at night on Lunasday, when the stars are out. Ceremonies are relaxed affairs with music, dancing, and offerings of art and other beautiful things.
Corellon's sacred month is Greentide (the second month on the calendar), and the 15th day is his holy day, Elvendawn. This date commemorates when the first elves emerged from the Feywild. Elves celebrate this time with wine, music, parades, gaudy decorations, and general debauchery. Communities near Feywild crossings may find themselves joined by satyrs, eladrin, dryads, and other fey creatures.

Priesthood

Clerics of Corellon act as advisors to their community's leaders. They are often blessed with artistic sense and good instincts for mediation, so they mainly guide the architecture and planning of their settlements, arbitrate disputes between elves (or elves and other races), create beautiful magic items to benefit the community, and generally help things run smoothly.
Paladins dedicated to the Arch-Heart are staunch protectors of their people. They see to their settlement's defenses, fight off drow raids, and lead counterattacks -- even into the Underdark if necessary. A significant number are involved with the Society of the Broken Chain, and join the Society's raids against drow and duergar slavers.
