Horebbin

Horebbin, the God of Dark Forests, is chief among the earth gods, and is the source of fertility for both plants and animals. Horebbin is also a storm god, and many sacrifices are made to him in the storm season so that he will not wash away his worshippers by being too generous.

Like all of the earth gods, Horebbin accepts mortal worshippers but he does not seek them. It is wise to seek Horebbin's protection while in his domain, but it is also wise to remember that Horebbin considers mortals in his forests as uninvited guests, at best.

Horebbin is not often depicted in mortal artwork: a great tree is his most common surrogate. When he is given a manlike shape, he is usually shown as a burly warrior wielding a great silver axe.
