History Relationships: This Demi-God was the original and first Sullivan of the Black Market Trading Port. Sylansia was an Orge Magi that wanted to bring the monster races to one place where they could trade rare and hard to get goods, in safety from the Humans and Elves of the region plus provide a place. It took all her strength and wisdom to bring the monster races to the table and set some ground rules for trade but in her haste to do so she was not watching over her shoulder as those around Sylansia had seen her power grow and influence over the area. Over the following years her powers and knowledge grew and focused on the power to resurrect that that had served her. It was at this time that a Pirate Captain took the opportunity to move in on her power over the trading port and took control by force. With her last action after being chased into the Underdark, Sylansia vowed to return and jumped into the abyss casting a number of spells/incantations on to her favourite large rune tooth and was never seen or heard about until now. The tooth was from an large planer extinct creature that was able to travel between other planes.

Dogma: She takes the souls of her followers and grants them a new existence but if they have not the will to return lets them past in the afterlife and eternal resting via the path set out by Jergal which was chosen for them at the moment of their creation.

Day-to-Day Activities: converting monster tribes to the faith, either by preaching or force. Ceremony of Rebirth, offer the corpse of a chosen or prospective subject (tribe/war chief or equivalent) to the goddess.

Holy Days/Important Ceremonies: Summer and Winter solstice for days of death and rebirth. Another important day is the the Day of Return and rebirth into a Demi-God, where the Mother appears at the Tooth in the Cave of Rebirth blessing those that attend the ceremony.

Affiliated Orders: Followers of Jergal find this new god of interest as it Sylansia Domain's sits on the edge and may even over lap into the Realm of Jergal but know path to eternal resting was set out long ago and this would only be a bump in the path. The main group that follows the this new Demi-god is The Chosen of the Mother, who watch over the Cave of Rebirth and the bring in new followers on a daily basis.

Priestly Vestments: Bone armor with runes carved into it, wearing an Amulet of Teeth and a skull helm/mark. The Amulet of teeth is rumoured to be touched by the Mother herself.

Adventuring Garb: Both those of the faith and true followers, hold a Symbol of the Mother. This is used to convert monsters to the Mother's faith, again rumoured to hold special powers that aid in this process.
