Lore
Summary: [1] Auril the Frostmaiden is a neutral evil lesser god of winter, cold and cruel. She loves beauty, using ice to preserve it. She allied herself with other storm deities Talas, Umberlee, and Malar. Umberlee turned the others against Auril; Auril escaped to Icewind Dale. She used her magic to cast spells to keep the sun from rising. This expenditure has left her weak and vulnerable.
Auril's worshipers say their prayers cautiously, afraid to disturb her and draw her cold attention.
