Marshwarden Centhyr

Tales told by swampfolk describe Marshwardens as both savior and executioner: a protector who punishes those who overharvest the fen. Old fishermen leave offerings of salt and metal trinkets to avoid their ire. Some druids seek out the Marshwarden as a guardian spirit to bargain with, while necromancers look to harvest their unique lichen for foul concoctions.
