Description
Myrath is the deity of rivers, wisdom, and healing, depicted as a robed elder with a staff of flowing water. His aether purifies Nova’s waters. In turn he is aligned with the sixth Astral Moon (the eleventh month of the calendar year)
In the timeline, Myrath flows rivers: one of The Twelve, the ancient aetheric deities that emerged at the beginning of Nova (0000), shaping the landscape of Roh-ber.
Worshippers
Sylvaris healers and Tidegate sages revere Myrath, cleansing aetheric fonts.
Symbol
A flowing river in the shape of a staff.
Personality
Myrath is the quiet wisdom of moving water: a venerable elder in flowing robes of deep river-blue and moss-green, his long beard and hair merging seamlessly into cascading streams that shimmer with inner light. His staff is not carved wood but living water—constantly reshaping, flowing upward in defiance of gravity, carrying motes of healing essence. His eyes are calm pools reflecting endless depths, seeing both the surface ripples of the present and the deep currents of fate. Myrath is serene fluvial sage incarnate—a patient healer and guide who embodies the restorative power of rivers: eroding barriers over time, nourishing life along their banks, purifying corruption, and carrying wisdom downstream to those who listen. In Nova, his aether flows through every stream and vein, cleansing poisons, mending broken ecosystems, and whispering ancient knowledge to those who dip their hands in his waters.
Core Motivation
Harmonious Flow of Life and Wisdom. Myrath seeks to keep Nova’s lifeblood—its rivers—pure and circulating, ensuring that vitality reaches every corner without stagnation or flood. Healing is his gift, wisdom his teaching; he mends not just flesh but rifts between people, lands, and cycles, believing that true renewal comes from gentle persistence rather than force.
Greatest Flaw
Overly Deliberate Pace. Myrath's river-like patience can frustrate those in immediate crisis—he might allow a wound to "teach" before healing, or let a drought run its course as a lesson in conservation. This measured approach risks being seen as indifference by short-lived mortals desperate for quick fixes.
Pet Peeves/Taboos
Polluting waters, hoarding healing knowledge, forcing change too swiftly. Followers vow never to dam a natural flow without restoring balance elsewhere.

"we tolerate shadows but despise this level of deceit" consensus. Voryn's constant teasing lies and cult manipulations have burned too many bridges. They don't actively hunt him, but his name is a curse in their temples, and his followers get extra scrutiny/harsh judgment.
