She is depicted as a towering tree of unknown species, with thick and knotting bark and far reaching, twisting roots with various primal runes that dance across the great tree's body. A beautiful crown of branches stretches upwards, topped with an abundance of leaves of various hues, from all manner of greens to the colors of a twilight sky. Unlike most of the other gods of Salvera, the World Tree's physical incarnation is stationary and unmoving from the place she was first planted during the Age of Creation, nestled in what would be later known as the Cradle of the World Shaper on the dragon continent of Thaczil. Legends tell that she was the very first tree ever created, the culmination of all the nature gods and goddesses of old, most of whom no longer exist. It is said that during the cataclysmic battle between Io, the Creator Deity of all Dragons and Erek-Hus, the Primordial King of Terror, Erek-Hus attempted to deal a demoralizing blow against the Creator Deities by sundering the young tree, who had become a symbol of the very soul of the world itself by her creators. Some claim Io acted on instinct to protect this symbol of life and creation, while other believed the Dragon Progenitor saw a prophetic vision of what was to come. Regardless of the reason why, Io took that killing blow, his sacrifice sparking the birth of the first of the Great Elder Primal Spirits.The World Tree is venerated by those that follow the various Primal Paths, and respect and revere the great beasts and vegetation of the world. She is also the master of the Primal Weave, which is said to be made up of her very own roots that stretch out all over the world. Her vast roots also absorb a lot of the dangerous energies that leak into Salvera from the rest of the multiverse through the ancient planar tears that resulted from the Creator Wars eons ago, keeping the plane from distorting and breaking apart in the process. (Also for anyone that is curious, the strange rib like mountains are intentions, the continent of Thaczil that the World Tree's physical incarnation resides in is essentially the body of Io the Dragon Progenitor that willing melded into the continent to act as both the World Tree's Cradle, and a sanctuary for his draconic children. So basically the World Tree sits in the middle of Io's rib cage.)[ATTACH=full]314891[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314892[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314893[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314894[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314895[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314896[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314897[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314898[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314899[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314900[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314901[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314902[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314903[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]314904[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
