Rhya is a goddess of the Warhammer Fantasy setting. Her main domain is nature's fertility. She's one of the Old Gods, the other being Taal, who are widely worshipped in the Empire, though generally overlooked in the wargame in favour of gods for smashing up Beastmen and smashing up Greenskins, probably for the best, all things considered. She's Manaan's mother. She's all about natural beauty and being nurturing, and is up there with the nicer gods of the setting. Her priests are more like druids, and is mainly worshiped by farmers and the like who cultivate the earth.
