Ehlonna is a power of the Prime-material Oerth. She teaches that the animals and plants of the forests are gifts, and are not to be stolen. She is often worshipped by rangers and druids, and opposes hunters and those who would rape the land for fun or profit.
Ehlonna has an intense rivalry with Obad-Hai. Where she advocates the beauty and goodness of unspoiled nature, Obad-Hai sees nature as brutal and uncompromising. She is friendly with the Seldarine and most good-aligned deities.
Deep within the Beastlands layer of Krigala is the Grove of the Unicorns, a realm shared between Ehlonna and the Finnish Mielikki. True to name, the grove often attracts groups of unicorns. It sits at the base of a cluster of great sequoias that form a natural cathedral for those beneath the canopy, the lowest branches of the great redwoods are hundreds of feet in the air.
