Silvanus is the god of wild nature in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting.

He is served by several deities of nature, most notably Mielikki: goodess of good woodland creatures, which points to some very close analogous between Obad-Hai and Ehlonna from the core setting, that they may very well be the same deities just under different names.

History / Dogma

Slvanus is one of those old, dawn of time deities along with Chauntea and Lathander who exist to administer to fundamental forces of the universe and have always been greater deities, rather than having risen up from lower ranks of godhood or mortality.

As such, he is typically detached from events in the world, preferring to get involved where his portfolio says so and little else.

However, he is not without ideology; though he has an off/on relationship with the earth mother Chauntea: goddess of agriculture, domestic animals and gardens, Silvanus believes that you shouldn't fuck with nature and opposes any attempt to tame the wilderness, taking a particular dislike to people who use fire and anyone whose profession is "woodcutter".
