Sylandri, the Green Mother, was a goddess of life and the woodlands in Aramán, and the Shaper of elves.[2]

Personality[]
Sylandri deeply loved the elves, and wanted to shield them from any form of suffering, even after death.[3] She, however, was also controlling and bent nature itself to her will.[4]
History[]
Background[]
Sylandri was one of the seven Shapers. She created the elves, and granted them immortality to remain untouched by age or illness; even if one of them were killed, the Green Mother would send her celestial servants to ferry the soul directly into her own realm, the Garden of the Spirit, so that they wouldn't spend time in the Tenebral Reaches.[5]
When the Shapers' War started, Sylandri and the other Shapers chose to side with the god of conquest, Azgra, after the orcs challenged him, which led to many mortals antagonizing the deities as well.[6] During the conflict, the night angel who took care of the elven souls was destroyed, and Sylandri's forces crafted an artifact to keep fulfilling that role;[7] despite this seemingly kind gesture, she was defeated and destroyed like the other Shapers had been.[8] Just as orcs created the Pariah Blades to kill their god Azgra, and halflings created sentient masks to destroy their trickster goddess Rauwyn, the elves created a single special projectile, the "last arrow", to slay their god Sylandri.[9] The area where she fell became one of fossilized, shattered trees and darkness, and came to be called the Wastes.[10]
Artifacts[]
- The Stone of Nightsong, a dark rock with wing-like carvings, is a relic created by a celestial to allow the souls of elves who have died to enter the Garden of the Spirit.[11] Thjazi Fang and Thimble acquired the Stone on their last adventure a few months before the events of Campaign Four,[12] but it was taken by rogue agents of the Crow Keepers[13] before ending up in the hands of Ethrand Tachonis.[14]
