[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 5157957, member: 4936"] Yee! Cool deal. As for the relationship between Silhouette and the fae...I don't think it's accurate to say they 'worship' her. The fae were her first attempt at creation, and they're too similar to her to worship her...they're not really capable of worship. She is their nominal ruler, and any fey present will happily obey the orders of the Queen. She even has fey retainers that live in and around her tower at the center of Faerie. They recognize her superiority, but it isn't worship...not the way a human being experiences it. For the fey, obeying Silhouette is like falling down a hill, or a leaf turning orange in autumn...it's part of the natural order. It probably doesn't help much that Silhouette doesn't encourage or demand worship either, at least not in terms of dogma. Of the mortal races she has a few matriarchal 'mother/creator' cults among gnomes (though most gnomes are disposed towards hero worship, deifying great ancestors of their own kind), and there are goblin she-priestesses who worship her 'winter' aspects. On the other hand, as a goddess of hunting, cunning and fortune fair or foul, she has many pockets of devotion and worship among all races. You won't find many churches or shrines in her name, but there aren't many hunters who don't carry a silver charm to earn her favor...and she is the bitch goddess of gamblers, rogues and ne'er-do-wells who love her and hate her by turns on the roll of a dice. Okay, sheet updated. I added a picture too! You seem to have ideas on how to add Sil, so that's fine. A couple things that may, or may not help: Silhouette is, especially at this time, very curious and inquisitive about her surroundings. Sort of like a cat in a new house, she's liable to crawl all over just to see what's behind what. She's rather enamoured of the mortal world; it's size and complexity and beauty. She's already learning that one of her favorite experiences is to be truly surprised. But then again, she has yet to experience an [i]unpleasant[/i] surprise. Not sure if she's aware of the other gods yet. A lot depends on whether or not she's discovered the Grey Mists. I leave that to you. [/QUOTE]
