The Aspects, or the Aspects of Nature are a trio of Aengudaemons[1] known individually as Cerridwen, Cernunnos, and Nemiisae. While the three deities individually represent different overarching natural necessities, they are banded together in Druidism as being the representation of all of nature, the embodiment of nature.

Overview and History of the Aspects

Following the discovery of the Aspects after Petyr's Great Dream, the Druids previous nature worship shifted towards the worship of the Aspects, whose charge was to protect the balance of nature. Ultimately, this did not really shift the Druid's dynamic of worship very much, but following this discovery they had tangible deities to harness magic from, and worship. The Aspects represent various natural necessities. In short, Cerridwen represents fertility, the cycle of life, and the harvest. Cernunnos represents the hunt, and general predation, and Nemiisae represents death, revenge, the moon, night and shadows.[2] Nemiisae is an exception from the other Aspects in a few ways: she is the only aspect with a Chaotic Evil alignment, (the others being true neutral) and she is intended to not be taught, thus is a topic of contention throughout the Druidic Order.
