Phoebus Mithraea, Ardoris Sidere, is the Goddess of the Sun. A logical and practical Goddess, Mithraea encourages similar aspects in Her followers, as well as ambition, benevolence, and an open mind. She is known to abhor needless prejudice, cruelty, and destruction. She is an advocate of the healing arts and continually seeks new cures to alleviate the maladies of the world.

History

Mithraea is the immortal realisation of Dawn, the priestess who once resided in Belladona's Keep. Because of her heroic efforts to cleanse the land of the Chaos Taint and restore Eris to life, Dawn was granted the gift of immortality by Sarapis on the 7th of Chronos, 331 AF.

After just a short stay in the mortal realms, Mithraea was captured by the devious Slith. She was trapped on a hidden plane for many years but has since finally escaped and returned to the Prime Material Plane.

The Mitras

Little is known about the devoted followers of Mithraea.

Divine Symbols

The realm of Mithraea abounds in imagery and symbolism. Her most prominent symbols include the eight-pointed star, the mithril sunburst, the unblinking eye, and the couchant lion. One of Her Divine emblems glows on each point of Her star-shaped shrines.
