Armara embodies as a figure of ethereal grace and boundless compassion. She is rarely seen in her full divine form, but when she does appear, she takes the shape of a magnificent bird of prey—a hawk or eagle—watching silently from a high perch. It is said that her true form was once that of a radiant angel clad in white, like the clouds that caress the skies. Her wings are formed from pure air itself, as if the very clouds have condensed to bring her into motion. Though never seen wielding weapons, she is often associated with an elegant longbow decorated with feathers, for her clergy favor the longbow as they travel the world bringing aid to those in need.
Her presence brings with it the promise of renewal and the gentle certainty of healing without judgment.
