Gathelon Tarminel (Estarine Pantheon)

In the Estarine faith, Gathelon Tarminel was one of seven beings of starlight who came to Adnati to give it life.

Of all the Estarine, Gathelon is depicted as the most youthful and the playful. He taught the elves illusions, cantrips, and simple forms of magic, particularly those used for entertainment and amusement. He is a favorite among petty rogues (though not assassins and hardened criminals, who turn to Asha). Many legends show him defending those accused of crimes, believing that everyone deserves a chance to defend themselves and even the guilty should have the opportunity to explain their actions. For this, he is also considered a god “of the people” and the patron of democratic institutions. His hair is depicted as golden yellow, and his skin as alabaster white flecked with golden highlights. He is the patron of instrumental music, democratic institutions, pranks and mischief, toys, wine and other intoxicants, the judicial system, and magic, particularly illusions and cantrips.

In common culture, one of the five planets, Gatheloní, is named after him. He is also the namesake for Gatheladÿn, the third day of the week.
