Pelor

Pelor, the Dawnfather stand lord over sun and summer, his vigil encircling the ages as the keeper of time. Lord of agriculture and harbinger of the harvest, his follows commonly include farmers and most common folk. His priests welcome in lands all over. Supporter of the needy and destroyer of evil, Pelor is often the patron to Paladins and Rangers who follow a similar creed. Pelor is also known for his defeat of the Chained Oblivion, and is revered by those who hunt aberrations.

Tapestries of old match early text describing Pelow as a patronly figure in silver and gold armor, his head a beacon of light and fire so bright that a face could rarely be seen within. Many statues in holy places treat the head as a brazier, lit with each dawn and extinguished with the dusk.

History :

Pelor stands as one of the first Gods to exist within the planes. He is the light that shines upon the World. After the Dawn War, when the Betrayer Gods turned on the Gods, the Chained Oblivion had allied with the Primordials to defeat and overtake the Gods. Realizing the threat that he was, and that the Planes of Existence would be destroyed should he have his way, the Gods banded together, overwhelmed him and chained him away into a dead plane.

Pelor took the lead against him and had his name cast out from the annals of history. Afterwards, Pelor would aid other Gods and forces in establishing the Divine Gate.

He directs his followers thus: Holiday : The Dawnfather's holy day is called Highsummer, the summer solstice, and takes place on the 15th day of the 7th month. It is a holiday with gift-giving and feasting. Most folk choose to spend Highsummer with their family, recounting the small things they are thankful for.
 * Alleviate suffering wherever you find it.
 * Bring Pelor’s light into places of darkness, showing kindness, mercy, and compassion.
 * Be ever vigilant for evil. People are quick to forget the lessons of the past.
