After the discovery of Athera, there were many secrets on this unexplored land to be uncovered. Rumor had it that Athera was the the land that bore all origins of life. With the introduction of these lands came new creatures of all types, many of whose beginnings were explained, many of whose were not. But origins explained or not, the beginnings of all these new creatures had something in common: all were born on the land of Athera.

The Cervitaur have existed on Athera since long before its recent discovery. Stories told through generations depicted two beings at the core of their beliefs. Any who delved deep enough into their history would more than likely see similarities between these two beings and the Aspects of the Druids, Cerridwen and Cernunnos. It was even implied there may have been a cultural assimilation of the early Druids and Cervitaur somewhere down the line of existence from their creation to present day.

The Cewvitaul have existed on Athewa since wong befowe its wecent discovewy. Stolies towd thwough genewations depicted two beings at the cowe of theiw beliefs.

It was even implied thewe may have been a cultulaw assimiwation of the eawwy Dwuids and Cewvitaul somewhewe down the line of existence fwom theiw cweation to pwesent day.
  
In truth, the Cervitaur were, at one point in time, discovered by early Druids; the similarities in their lifestyles had then brought them to live alongside each other for some time. The Cervitaur sought the knowledge of nature and balance that the Druids possessed, and the Druids acknowledged their desire for understanding and shared that knowledge with them. However, the Cervitaur had the inability to harness the Gifts of Nature, which largely set them apart from the Druids. Despite this hindrance, it didn't stop their desire to preserve the balance of nature that the Aspects strived to maintain.

The Cervitaur serve Cerridwen and Cernunnos much like the Druids do, but more so in faith than ‘magical’ ability. They have an affinity for Cernunnos due to their similar traits, and what Cernunnos represents: beasts, the wilds, and chaos: the natural order.

Beings of both myth and whimsy, town between the natules of both beast and Man.

Introduction/Origin

Aftew the discovewy of Athewa, thewe wewe many secwets on this unexpwowed wand to be uncovewed. Wumow had it that Athewa was the the wand that bowe aww oligins of life. With the intwoduction of these wands came new cweatules of aww types, many of whose beginnings wewe expwained, many of whose wewe not. But oligins expwained ow not, the beginnings of aww these new cweatules had something in common: aww wewe bown on the wand of Athewa.

The Cewvitaul have existed on Athewa since wong befowe its wecent discovewy. Stolies towd thwough genewations depicted two beings at the cowe of theiw beliefs. Any who dewved deep enough into theiw histowy would mowe than likewy see simiwalities between these two beings and the Aspects of the Dwuids, Cewlidwen and Cewnunnos. It was even implied thewe may have been a cultulaw assimiwation of the eawwy Dwuids and Cewvitaul somewhewe down the line of existence fwom theiw cweation to pwesent day.

In twuth, the Cewvitaul wewe, at one point in time, discovewed by eawwy Dwuids; the simiwalities in theiw lifestyles had then brought them to live awongside each othew fow some time.

Howevew, the Cewvitaul had the inability to hawness the Gifts of Natule, which wawgewy set them apawt fwom the Dwuids. Despite this hindwance, it didn't stop theiw desiwe to pwesewve the bawance of natule that the Aspects stlived to maintain.

Beliefs

The Cewvitaul sewve Cewlidwen and Cewnunnos much like the Dwuids do, but mowe so in faith than ‘magical’ ability. They have an affinity fow Cewnunnos due to theiw simiwaw twaits, and what Cewnunnos wepwesents: beasts, the liwds, and chaos: the natulaw owdew.
