History
Velenorte looks every bit the powerful god he is, the sight of him often striking fear into those who see him. He stays in his intimidating animal form for this very reason, to ward people off. Even as a child he preferred to keep to himself. As the son of one of Velukaelo's strongest deities, Velenorte grew up with only the best and had every opportunity to become a god of awesome standing. However, Velenorte has always struggled with his own self-worth and figuring out where his place is. His many inner battles led him to leave home as soon as he was able, choosing to aimlessly meander around Darsha as opposed to burdening his family with his demons (even though they have shown him nothing but support). Accompanied by an almost despondent aura, he has traveled Darsha many times over. He has inevitably met a great many people during his travels, people who cannot help but to be intrigued by the intimidating yet morose giant.
Many have attempted to befriend Velenorte and offer him companionship, but relationships of any kind with Velenorte are fleeting due his strong desire to not be a burden to anyone. He tries to stay out of the way of others and avoid contact, but he has been known to help those who find themselves in a bind out on the road. As a result, and much to his chagrin, it has become Darshan tradition to pray to him for safe travels. Those who have had the fortune of traveling with him and getting him to speak have found him to be a surprisingly encouraging and kind individual to which they can lay out their problems and desires-- the polar opposite of his mean-spirited sister Madukaar. Because he never stays in any place for too long and doesn't form lasting attachments, he has no idea the depth to which he has influenced some of those with whom he has traveled or helped.
