Kithin is the raptoran god of winter, the dead, dying, and sleep.

Appearance[edit]

The Father of Snows appears as an elderly raptoran wrapped in furs, with white skin and gray feathers, and frosty white banded to his wings.

Worshippers[edit]

The clerics of Kithin are in charge of the funerals and preparing the bodies, blessing the winter supplies and keeping tally of them, preparing meals during winter, and keeping the communal fires lit in the winter camps. The clerics also do battle against the undead, seek anything that can help against the winter cold, preside over the annual ritual of Snowbinding, where raptorans let snow bury themselves almost completely and sleep in it for the night, and even journey to save raptoran souls from the denizens of the Lower Planes. Kithin's shrines are present only in winter, as they are made of snow and ice bricks.
