Her true form is completely liquid, though she often shapes herself in the form of a female entity made of water. She also enjoys taking the shape of a dolphin, a mermaid, a sea elf, a human, or an elf, always female. Her form shifts fluidly like the water of which she is made. Galatea promotes peace among intelligent beings, and her texts teach tolerance of those who are different. The sacred texts hearken back to long ago, when they claim that there was no land on Enworld, and everything was water. Then when land appeared, creatures began to learn how to walk on land and changed, all from a common source in the water. Even later, some land animals returned to the water and became dolphins. Because they are such perfect examples of Galatea's philosophy, the dolphins are her favourite from among her many animal friends. Galatea also points out that all living creatures share the fact that they are mostly composed of water, and so the water within us all forms a bond of kinship and harmony. Galatea's clerics are more likely to be diplomats or healers than warriors, but some strive to defeat unnatural beings, which Galatea believes are blights in a land of peace. She particularly despises aberrations, the twisted forms of what were once beautiful creatures, and so she cannot stand Ahrianna. She also considers undead to be an abomination, though to a lesser extent than aberrations, but her clerics are not afraid to destroy those lifeless menaces. She is very close to her son Delanor, and she is cordial to her granddaughter Shurassa despite their opposing influence on water. Temples of Galatea on the land are often positioned above healing springs, as these are seen to perfectly emphasise Galatea's soothing influence, and the clerics there are often skilled masseuses. Underwater, temples are often built in spots where there is natural sunlight, as the clerics enjoy the beauty of the sunrise. -Created by Rystil Arden [/QUOTE]
