Summary[edit]

Adriel is the goddess of magic within the World Tree campaign setting.

Interaction with Other Deities[edit]

According to ancient texts, Adriel, after sitting idly watching the wars and fighting among the other deities, decided to empower the beings of the world by giving them magic (referred to as "the gift" in ancient texts). She taught the most intelligible creatures the spells and incantations to shape the world on their own and scattered the ancient runes throughout the world so they will never be forgotten. The deities were furious, punishing her through branding her with the arcanic runes for random polymorph. Most depictions of Adriel show her as a cloud, due to her susceptibility to never have the same appearance twice.
