Selvienä

Selvienä is a term that appears in some fictional contexts, primarily within role-playing games and fantasy literature. It typically refers to a type of ethereal or spirit-like creature, often associated with nature, forests, or ancient places. The exact characteristics of selvienä can vary significantly depending on the specific source material, but common themes include a connection to life forces, a translucent or glowing appearance, and a generally benevolent or neutral disposition.

These beings are sometimes depicted as guardians of sacred groves or as manifestations of the collective spirit of a particular ecosystem. Their abilities might include influencing plant growth, communicating with animals, or wielding subtle forms of magic tied to the natural world. In some narratives, encountering a selvienä is considered a rare and significant event, often signifying a deep connection to the spiritual essence of the land. The etymology of the word "selvienä" itself is not widely established and is likely a neologism created for fictional purposes, possibly drawing inspiration from words related to clarity, spirit, or nature in various languages. Their precise nature and role within a fictional world are usually defined by the creator's imagination.
