Naiya

Character from The Gods are Bastards by D.D. Webb

Elder Goddess of Nature — the primordial force that created the fae, the dryads, and the Deep Wild, older than the Pantheon and more powerful than any of them want to admit.

Also known as: Naiya, The Mother of the Wild, Elder Goddess of Nature

What They Know

• Older than the Pantheon — existed when the world was new and remembers the Elder Wars
• Created all fae creatures, including dryads, pixies, and the intelligent flora of the Deep Wild
• The Pantheon imprisoned her because her power is uncontrollable — the seal is a joint effort of multiple gods
• Fae magic flows from her directly — every practitioner of wild magic is drawing on Naiya's power whether they know it or not
• Does not think in mortal timescales — a century is an afternoon to her, and her plans unfold accordingly
