History

Valshar, the daughter of Helthor, is an elusive and mysterious goddess who rarely makes herself openly known. She is the goddess of sorrow and loss and engrosses herself in the grief and despair of mortals. Unlike her father Helthor, she does not usually take an active role in causing sorrow. Instead, she follows the grief-stricken around, haunting them with mournful cries in the night and constant reminders of their loss. Most of those who come to worship her are victims whom she has caused to lose all hope and happiness and know only despair. Like her father, she preys on those who may be weak-willed or do not have the strength of another god to guide them. Many of her worshipers and victims die of their grief, only to join their mistress in eternal sorrow.

Many do not believe Valshar to exist at all. In small Halfling communities, for example, she is often spoken about in 'ghost stories' and tales to frighten children. Others suspect she is a wandering soul, mourning a lover that never returned. There is still much uncertainty about her true nature yet she has inspired many a bards' songs and stories.
