The Dark Seldarine: Hanali Celanil

Of all the Dark Seldarine, Hanali Celanil is perhaps the most beautiful, the most radiant…and the most terrifying. Her passion knows no restraints and her vengeance knows no limits. Hanali is the lover who lures servants into her bed and then calls for their master, the sadist who flays the skin of a bound slave, and the cat who toys with her prey before discarding their broken bodies.

At the dawn of time Hanali was a simple fertility goddess. But she watched avidly as the elves civilized themselves, trading their tree-bole shelters for canopy palisades, illusion-wrapped hill forts, and crystalline cities. Entranced, she abandoned the portfolio of fertility to become a deity of love, romance, beauty, and art. But like a spoiled child, she quickly became bored of each new discovery. Her quest for novelty took her down darker and darker roads, till even the fleshpots of the Abyss drew a multiverse-weary yawn. Now she hungers after new sensations, however vile.

Hanali’s worshippers are the pampered, the spoiled, the cruel lovers, the sadists. She inflames elven passions and delights in instigating trouble so she can watch the resulting ruination play out.

While rarely fruitful, careless Hanali’s liaisons do occasionally result in divine-touched elves, fey’ri (Monsters of Faerûn), and succubi. She bears all these beings with alarming speed and in total secrecy. It is whispered that more than one atropal (Epic Level Handbook or Libris Mortis) is her responsibility as well.
