Darren

the Darren is the seventh god in the Otherfaith. He is the syncretic form of the Clarene and Dierne. He is a god of questions, peace, and mediation. He share dominion over doubt with the Ophelene but largely keeps to himself, exploring the worlds outside the West.

For the People, the Darren represents doubt.

Appearance
the Darren's most common appearance is a slow-moving and stout, smoldering figure with glowing eyes. He can also appear as a deer, often a dark stag with glowing eyes. In his human-like form, the Darren can appear as a man with dark hair, tan skin, red eyes, and with white horns or antlers on his head. Drawing on his connection to crows and ravens, he may also appear feathered.
