Varienna

Varienna is the Goddess of music and poetry, and is the youngest of the Pantheon. Varienna created all the birds, and taught mortals how to sing. Varienna's symbol is a sparrow.

Description
Varienna appears to some chosen followers as a sparrow, singing spirited duets and fluttering about treetops freely. More rarely, she appears as a pretty young sky elf, dark-skinned with shimmering purple eyes, fluffy white wings, and long, braided white hair.

Varienna is joyful and sweet, and cares little for the serious matters of the world. She believes in the magic and power of art and beauty, and appreciates all those who strive to make Aavalin a more beautiful place in any way.

Faelys
Faelys is Varienna's Champion, and has been for several years. Varienna excitedly chose her champion as soon as she could, selecting a beautiful free spirit to carry forth her will on the Material Plane. Varienna sometimes visits Faelys as a sparrow in the morning to sing with her, and has granted her several special abilities.

Arawyn
Lady Arawyn is the current High Priests of Varienna. She was born as the daughter of the previous High Priest, Lady Beatrice, in 2190. Beatrice died in childbirth, and Arawyn's other mother, a young moon elf acolyte, raised her as a single parent. Many suspected that Arawyn was Beatrice's reincarnation due to their very similar appearances (with Arawyn appearing slightly more elven, as Beatrice had been the daughter of humans) and temperament. Her surviving mother always dismissed the reincarnation rumours, insisting that her daughter was her own person. The dismissal of these rumours was not aided by the fact that Arawyn was named as the next High Priest at only a few days of age. Arawyn herself knew the rumours could not possibly be true; she met with her mother in dreams on a very regular basis. Her mother was, in fact, her main teacher, along with her deva and occasionally Varienna herself. She has never bothered to outright deny the rumours, though; she enjoys the attention.

Arawyn is as free-spirited as a priest of Varienna can be expected to be. She is an artist, and regularly auctions off her beautiful paintings in the name of various charities. She is confident and fun-loving, and is very wise (despite seeming rather silly).
