Sereniva

Sereniva is one of the most common deities to find worshipers of in everyday life in nations that do not have another established deity, such as Agarus, and the high-elven nations. Her churches often hold a prominent position in major cities in those areas.

Often, however, her followers prove not to be particularly devoted, choosing to worship her because she is an "easy" deity to follow. She lacks the negative stereotypes associated with some other deities such as Vaera and Kelviena. Her teachings are relatively simple for an ordinary commoner to follow, and her churches are easy to find.

A more active sect of Serenivites has begun to gain traction in more recent years, although evidence suggests they've existed for quite some time. Calling themselves "Star Seekers", they consider themselves the true devoted of Sereniva, and are dedicated to improving the world in whatever way they can, often exposing corrupt nobles, opening hospitals, and fighting back atrashai incursions. Their actions have unfortunately been tarnished somewhat in the public eye due to their arrogance, often putting down other worshipers of Sereniva as "fake".

Association With the Felatrashai
While the Felatrashai, like most atrashai, are not associated with any deity as a group, many have been known to appear to Sereniva's followers, and most claim to have been sent by her. This remained a mystery for many years, and often spawned the misconception that the Felatrashai were servants of Sereniva.

In 20,341 FV, this mystery was finally solved when a Kahvlarashen plane traveler by the name of Yhelsievh Mierloan discovered a sect of Felatrashai in Syella which were devoted to Sereniva. He discovered that these Felatrashai had been there for quite some time, despite being considered a sort of cult among their fellow Felatrashai, and were the members of their kind that had been associated with Sereniva.

Avatars
Sereniva is known to have made the most avatar appearances out of any deity in Verail. Unlike most others, however, she has generally not appeared during major battles as other deities have. Instead, most of her appearances have been during smaller conflicts or even times of peace. Her appearance for all of these has been a slightly ethereal human woman with eyes that appear to be small stars.

- After the Destruction of Xentharin, Sereniva appeared to aid the survivors in setting up a small town on Verail and reuniting with friends and family members that had also survived. With the recent revelation that Xentharin itself was not destroyed, questions have been raised as to why she never revealed this fact.

- She has appeared to fight off sevatrashai sieges on four separate occasions throughout history.

- Three people have reported Sereniva saving their lives, twice to wild animals and once to a falling tree. Powerful magical signatures left in these areas suggest a powerful being did appear in the area, lending credibility to the claims.
