The Sovereign of Law and Lore, Aureon is the patron of wizards and a figure venerated by scholars and librarians.[8][9][10] He is the god of magic as a tool for mortals to use. Although all members of the Host are considered equal, it is typically written that the Host follows Aureon's guidance because of his vast wisdom.[11]

Description[]

Aureon is generally depicted as a human or gnome wizard. Another common depiction of him is as a blue dragon.[8][9]

Relations[]

Aureon is considered to be the brother of Onatar. His wife is Boldrei.[8][9] The Shadow was once simply Aureon's shadow, but became an evil deity through Aureon's magic.[12][13]

Worshipers[]

Dedicated followers of Aureon are usually wizards, scholars, or government officials. Most dedicated followers have some skill in arcane magic.[8][11]

Rites[]

Offering a sacrifice or prayer to Aureon is a formal ceremony, usually taken in the desire to acquire knowledge. Aureon's name is also often invoked when swearing to tell the truth in a court of law.[11]

The holiday of Aureon's Crown takes place on the 26th of Dravago. The occasion is generally celebrated by lectures.[14]

Clergy[]

Priests of Aureon are generally trained in logic and their nation's laws. Many also serve as government officials or bureaucrats.[11]

Myths and History[]

According to myth, Aureon was the first to discover the secrets of arcane magic and become a wizard. He now shares magic with those willing to study it.[10]

Long ago, Aureon bound all the evil in his soul and banished it from his personage.[15] This monster became known as the Shadow.[16] It is said that Eberron will come to an end when he and his shadow rejoin.[15]

The dragon religion of Thir believes that Aureon is the legendary blue dragon Ourelonastrix ascended to godhood.[17] In life, he uncovered the Draconic Prophecy and brought the secrets of magic to the giants of Xen'drik, ultimately leading to their destruction. The destruction of Xen'drik is known as kurash Ourelonastrix or "Aureon's folly" to the dragons.[18]
