Palya

Palya is a legendary figure from the ancient history of Ardrana. She was a member of the Outlanders, and in most stories is the lover of their leader, Shoto. She was Lastini, and is often considered the archetypal member of their race, as Kheo is for the Karis. She was also a ranger, and a highly skilled archer. She is often called "Palya of the Golden Hair" in stories, as she was renowned for her flowing golden tresses, which she only let down under very special circumstances.

Demigoddess attributes

Along with her fellow Outlanders, she disappeared during their final battle, and was placed in the heavens as one of the planets. As a demigoddess, she has dominion over the healing arts and over animals, especially horses. Her priests are all skilled in the sword and bow, and generally wear traveling clothes at all times. Her favored colors are gold and brown. Her holy symbol, as well as those of the other Outlanders, is six small circles arranged in a larger circle. In Palya's, the circle on the upper right is filled in with a yellow stone, often citrine.
