Description

Syltharax is an elegant figure with skin that shifts between shades of gray like living smoke. Her hair moves like ink in water, forming and dissolving words and symbols. Her eyes are mirrors that show both truth and lies simultaneously.

Subtle and complex, Syltharax sees truth and lies as tools rather than absolutes. Her voice seems to speak multiple versions of truth at once. She guides others through the maze of politics and perception.

Divine Bonds

Syltharax's union with Vazmir, god of necessary evil, produced Valeris - a deity who found redemption despite being born of darkness and deception. Their relationship demonstrates that even from moral ambiguity, something pure can emerge.

Together they navigate the complex territory where truth, lies, and necessity intersect, providing guidance to those who must operate in the gray areas of morality.

Divine Purpose

Syltharax maintains a court where truth and lies dance together. She teaches the art of political maneuvering and the nature of subjective truth. Her blessing comes to those who must navigate treacherous political waters.

Her worship is found among diplomats, politicians, and all who understand that perception shapes reality. Her temples are courts and council chambers, where the skilled learn to read between the lines of every statement.
