Selune (Seh-LOON-eh)
Our Lady of Silver

    Goddess of the Moon, Stars, Navigation    CG
Lesser Power    Gladsheim
Symbol: Circle of seven stars around two feminine eyes.

NOTES: Revered by female
spell-casters, (and worshipped by few)
and by all who navigate or must work
at night Selune is continually either
growing to full glory or dying. Selune
is linked to Mystra; children born
under a full moon often exhibit
magical ability. Lycanthropes who
enjoy their condition (rare though they
may be) usually come to worship
Selune, for she governs their powers.
Selune has been said to aid devout
worshippers of her Mystery of the
Night by sending aid to those lost by
trails of "moondust" (small motes of
light similar to dancing lights or will-o'-the-wisps,)
which produce moonlight
where none would otherwise be. The
"night-stalk," or solitary moonlit walk, is
the occasion and ritual of worship to,
and communion with, Selune. Clerics of
Selune seek and praise "drops fallen
from the moon," the offerings of the
goddess, for with this precious substance
they can make many potions and unguents.
These are considered to
come from the "tears of Selue," the
satellite in its path. Whether the moon
is named for the goddess or vice-versa
is unknown. Selune appears as a dusky-hued
maiden with wide, radiant eyes
and a long-tressed mane of white.
