Etyries

[eh-TEER-eez]

Messenger of the Goddess

  • Lunar pantheon

Several humans became demigods and filled roles in the Lunar pantheon. One of these was the frustrated daughter of a southern merchant who went to hear the word of the Red Goddess. She listened well, learned what the goddess meant, and worked her way to become Etyries, goddess of merchants, messengers, and heralds. In becoming a goddess, Etyries usurped spells and skills possessed by other deities.

She is usually pictured as a wide-eyed woman thrusting a balance scales forward in her right hand, and clutching a sacred urn to her breast with her left.
