If Corellon Larethian is the noble who loves a merry (or baleful) hunt, Solonor Thelandira is his master hunter, tracker, and game warden. Eschewing the life of the trouping court, Solonor hunts alone if it all possible, stalking prey with divine patience and cunning. That his quarry occasionally includes creatures that most folk would never consider game—including men, unicorns, blink dogs, metallic dragons, and the odd insufferable archon—is of no consequence to this solitary hunter.
Solonor is a good steward of the land; he never kills pregnant females or the young. But he has little patience for those who see hunting as a proxy for honor or a statement about the nature of elfhood. He brings home meat and hides, not trophies, and in a pinch he is as happy to kill with a snare, a knife, or his own bloody jaws as he is with his beloved bow.
A remote deity, Solonor does little more than provide spells to his clerics. Worshipping rangers model their behavior after him (always choosing the bow over double weapons) but rarely ask his assistance, calling on him only for the most impossible shots. Aside from Corellon, Solonor avoids communicating with other beings. The lone exception is Rillifane Rallathil, whose woods he frequents. By exterminating those who have angered the Green Regent, Solonor ensures unrestricted access to his favorite hunting grounds.
