Labelas Enoreth is an elven deity, the Lord of the Continuum who governs the orderly passage of time and guards against those who would alter the path of history. Together with Sehanine Moonbow he oversees the long life span of the elves and their lives after they have left the mortal realms. His symbol is the setting sun.
Description
Like Corellon Larethian, Labelas appears as a being male and female at once, both and neither, though he always has silver eyes and hair. He wears pale-colored robes of green, blue, white, and gray. He is a philosopher, a patient teacher and instructor, who gives wisdom and knowledge to young and old alike.
Relationships
The elven pantheon of gods (also known as the Seldarine) consists of the leader Corellon Larethian, as well as Aerdrie Faenya, Deep Sashelas, Erevan Ilesere, Fenmarel Mestarine, Hanali Celanil, Labelas Enoreth, Rillifane Rallathil, Sehanine Moonbow, and Solonor Thelandira. Other elven gods are present as well. Sometimes Labelas is said to be the brother of Sehanine Moonbow, and the child of Corellon Larethian.
Labelas has good relations with the rest of the Seldarine, though he can get impatient with Erevan Ilesere’s tricks. Because it was Labelas who decreed that elven beauty would not be marred by the passing of time, he has good relations with Hanali Celanil. He is opposed to the gods of entropy and decay and Clangeddin Silverbeard the dwarven god of battle has a long-standing grudge against him.
Realm
Labelas lives in the realm of Arvandor on the plane of Arborea.
Worshipers
Labelas is often praised but rarely invoked. Those who worship him are those with an interest in ideas and knowledge, and the changes wrought by the passage of time - sages, historians, philosophers, and librarians.
Clergy
Labelas' priests are responsible for educating the young and promoting and acquiring knowledge. They are also record keepers and historians. They meet in groves at sunset to pray, meditate and mark the passing of another day by sharing prayers and knowledge. Clerics of Labelas Enoreth typically dress in light gray robes.
