YONDALLA

Yondalla is also known as The Protector and the Provider, the Nurturing Matriarch, and the Blessed One.

Yondalla has two aspects: the Provider and the Protector. As the Provider, she is a goddess of fertility and growing things, of birth and youth. She can make barren things fertile and increase the growing rate of plants and animals to any speed she choses.

What she can give, she will also take away. With a wave of her hand she can affect creatures by ageing them 10 years, and wither/shrivel a limb or member so that it is useless.

As Protector, Yondalla wards off evil influences and intrusions (thus her shield symbol) and gives halflings the strength and determination to defend themselves. In this aspect, Yondalla most often uses her illusionist abilities to protect her worshippers.

Halflings set aside one day a week for worship of Yondalla (this day is called "safeday"), a day which is mostly spent in rest and play.

Her allies include Chauntea, Corellon Larethian, Helm, Moradin, Torm and Tyr. Her foes are Cyric, Talos and Malar.
