Gwethyr

Gwethyr, Goddess of the Sun and Wisdom
Gwethyr was revealed to us with thew arrival of the aasimar as their goddess of wisdom with strong ties to the sun.

It is not uncommon among the gods of Fascillia to be displayed as physical beings with humanoid bodies, usually bodies similar to the race of those who worshiped them, this is not lacking here.

Gwethyr is displayed as an Aasimar female with golden wings wrapped around her, long curled blonde hair and skin that shimmers in a rainbow of colors when the light hits it. Her arms stretch skyward and she holds the sun above her, shrunken to an orb roughly 2 feet across. She wears a solid gold breastplate and otherwise is covered in white strands of silk, only her hands and feet are bare, her head unadorned.

The Aasimar brought knowledge of three gods to the world; Caturix, Gwethyr and Vista. It is a common misconception when the three are viewed together that they are brother and sisters, or perhaps husband and wives. In truth the Aasimar of old rarely preached of their gods private lives but it was not kept secret, from varied records we can reasonably understand that both Gwethyr and Vista were a mated pair and that in their desire for a child Vista sculpted one from solid marble and Gwethyr drew power from the sun and used it to fill it with life, creating Caturix.

Gwethyr, if the Aasimar preachers are to be believed, is a calm and dutiful goddess. Many Aasimar paladins chose to venerate Gwethyr as their patron due to her strong ties to light and her undying lawfulness. It is not uncommon to hear of people receiving guidance and wisdom through prayers to Gwethyr.

Her symbol is that of a an eclipsing golden sun on a field of grey (Aasimar preachers would often say that it used to be a simple golden sun but with the addition of Caturix to the divine family she preferred never to be venerated without recognition of her son).
