Valra

The Valra is the immortal godlike ruler of Eldheven. She has led the nation since prehistory, possibly being one of the first elves to have walked Irdas. Not much is known about her, but she plays a major role in elven mythology.

History
The Valra was one of the three elves who led the rest across the continent of Eltera. She travelled south into a great valley until she reached the edges of a massive lake. She planted the tree that would grow into the city of Valmora and tended it, letting it grow for several lifetimes as it spread its seeds across the valley, eventually growing into the massive forest that defines the land of Eldheven.

During the orc invasions, The Valra refused to join an alliance and instead ordered her nation blocked off, declaring that any who entered her land without her permission would perish. The nation has done this ever since.

The people of Eldheven see her as a living god, a being of divine power who guides the elves along their journey. The elves of Solheven and Iliara have much less flattering opinions. They believe that the Valra is either a demon or some sort of corrupted elf who should be cast out.

Powers
The Valra is said to have the ability to tree stride, to travel between any tree in her forest. She can speak any language and can also speak telepathically to anyone within her borders. She can supposedly also see and hear anything that occurs within the forest. She possibly has other powers as well.
