Selûne, The Moonmaiden, is the Forgotten Realms god of light, stars, the moon, navigation and good-aligned lycanthropes.
History
Selûne, alongside her twin Shar, was created by Ao in the beginning. The two worked together creating the realmspace of Forgotten Realms, eventually creating the Chauntea; who was the deified embodiment of Abeir-Toril.
From then on, the Sisters disageed on how things should go on from there. What started as petty arguments about whether the cosmic curtains matched the décor, whether shoes needed to be removed upon entering the universe, and whether pets were kept outside. It eventually escalated i to full out war between the goddesses, and at this point all of their decisions had been creating other deities to fill in the gaps of their creation. For instance: Chauntea thought the universe was a little chilly, so Selûne turned the spave heater on (presumably awakening Lathander). So having created other deities by the end of their fight like Targus, the original god of war, Moander, the god of decay, Jergal, god of strife, death and the dead. They had pretty much escalated their little cat fight up to a full blown military conflict!
It eventually came to a turning point when selûne had had enough of her sister's shit, and tore a piece of herself off and flung it at Shar. The pure divine essence literally ripped Shar a new one, and when it passed out the other side it formed another deity: Mystryl, Goddess of Magic, and pretty much the most powerful of their creations so far.
Unfortunately the attack had left Selûne significantly weakened, and she took some negative levels, becoming an intermediate deity. But thankfully Mystryl and most of the other significant gods of the universe decided to side with her, pushing the conflict into a stalemate.
Selûnes church has two main goals: fight against evil lycanthropes and summon Shards, blue-haired, female planetars, to fight against Shar and her minions.
