Deep Sashelas
Deep Sashelas is the elf patron deity of aquatic elves. He is also a god of creation, knowledge, beauty, and magic.
In many campaign settings, the elven pantheon of gods (also known as the Seldarine) consists of the leader Corellon Larethian, as well as Aerdrie Faenya, Deep Sashelas, Erevan Ilesere, Fenmarel Mestarine, Hanali Celanil, Labelas Enoreth, Rillifane Rallathil, Sehanine Moonbow, and Solonor Thelandira. Other elven gods may be present in different campaign settings.
Sashelas is known as the "Knowledgeable One," and is the master of dolphins. He makes his home on the plane of Arborea, and lives in the realm of Elavandor.
Clergy and temples
Sashelas' clerics wear sea green vestments and shell mail. His sacred animal is the dolphin. He is worshipped in undersea coral temples at the highest and lowest tides.
