Lumnis is the Goddess of Wisdom and Knowledge, and the wife of Koar.
She is not considered the "Queen" of the Gods, however.
She gives counsel willingly, even to the Dark Gods, but never commands.
Lumnis power lies in her understanding of the interrelationships
of the Spheres of Knowledge (Elemental, Spiritual, Chaos, Order
and Planar) and her intuitive grasp of their intricacies. Able to
accomplish feats that leave even Koar amazed, she wields her knowledge
with the style of an artist.
She is worshipped by scholars and practitioners of the arcane arts
who explore the boundaries of their knowledge with a wonder and
respect of the powers they discover. Her wisdom is also sought by
fortune-tellers and all in need of guidance. Lumnis will never give
an answer outright, however. She would rather advise and guide,
allowing those who seek aid to find the answer on their own.
She regards Fashlonaes
approach to knowledge as ultimately self-destructive and unconscionable.
Her disapproval of knowledge for personal gain or power is such
that she has been attributed with the sudden disappearance of several
notably power-hungry magic users over the centuries.
Lumnis preferred humanoid manifestation is that of a mature
woman in gossamer robes of light grey, so long that her feet are
never seen and the hem is lost in distant mists. Her hair is black
with a single shock of grey at her forehead. In manner she is serene,
and even in anger she is more a disappointed mother than a raging
goddess. Her symbol is a golden scroll overlaying five conjoined
circles, the circles being red (Planar), blue (Spiritual), black
(Chaos), green (Elemental), and white (Order) - symbolizing her
mastery of the Spheres of Knowledge.
