Khitar
Overview
Khitar, the younger of the Twin Goddesses, is most often portrayed in well-used armor or a hooded cloak swept up by an unseen wind, posture ready to do battle. She is known for her forceful, mercurial, and occasionally vicious nature, though her sister Nimway serves as a stabilizing influence, toning down her more extreme impulses.

History
After the creation of the Elven races during the Elari-Faerie Wars, a Wood Elf Channeler and her Adept twin won a boon from Nimway. Nimway and Khitar lead the wood elves to a safe haven and hid them from both the Elari and the Fae. Khitar, furious at what had become of the other races they had helped to create, supported her sister's wish to protect them. Elves sworn to her service worked to guard the borders of their haven against intrusion and assist their cousins - the wild elves and high elves - in escaping the conflict. Ultimately, with the support of the Twins the wood elves were able to survive and even thrive, eventually developing a theocratic monarchy blessed by the goddesses themselves until the race later joined with the high elves into one elven nation.
Relationships
Khitar's closest confidante is her sister, Nimway, and she maintains a friendly rivalry with Septimus. She does not care for how much he allows Alkaizer's input to influence him, however. Khitar has also been known to interact with Thysis on occasion.
Religion
Often worshiped alongside the great Alkaizer in agricultural communities, the Twins are most often prayed to in hopes of good weather for crops. Seafaring communities frequently pray to the Khitar for strong winds. Her strong ties to the Wrath Domain and love of combat are emphasized by those who worship her: warriors pray to Khitar for strength or support in bids for vengeance; the guilty leave her tribute to offset her wrath.
