Kaelune

Kaelune is a fictional moon goddess and celestial body that appears in multiple fantasy settings, including role-playing games, novels, and video games. The name is often treated as a compound of a stylized root kae and the word lune, signaling a lunar identity.

In most depictions, Kaelune embodies the moon's qualities—silence, introspection, and the boundary between night and day. She is typically portrayed as a serene figure cloaked in silver light, sometimes shown with a crescent or small orbs of light.

Worship and practice: Temples are placed on hilltops or near coastlines; rites occur during new moons or full moons; offerings of silver, seashells, and dreams-related items are common, and priesthoods guide divination, healing, and nocturnal navigation.

Myths place her as protector of travelers and healers or as guardian of tides and dreams; in some traditions she is the sister or consort of the sun god, while in others she is a solitary, self-contained power. Her stories often explore twilight, transition, and the passage between seasons and states of mind.

In world-building, Kaelune influences calendars, names, and festivals; her cults appear across settlements, shaping music, art, and law in various settings. References to Kaelune can be found in lore collections, temple inscriptions, and in-game codices within many fantasy universes.
