 Though with the clan system there is a clear hierarchy and sense of duty to their superiors, there is no such concept to be observed between clans, and as such, many clans are rivals that compete for the affections of the Valdaen. It is thought that, with the Valdaen being composed of three deities of their kind, there is some favoritism among the variegated court system towards the clans. Thus, some clans are reportedly less attenuated to the demands of the Valdaen simply because of their leaders lack of involvement with the gods, thereby losing some connection with the divine. Despite this, there are still ceremonial holidays and festivities that observe the summoning of the Valdaen from the world of spirits, where they manifest and gift their people with various artifacts of a magical nature.\\ Though with the clan system there is a clear hierarchy and sense of duty to their superiors, there is no such concept to be observed between clans, and as such, many clans are rivals that compete for the affections of the Valdaen.

-It is thought by the Vaathara that the Valdaen exist in a place beyond the stars, thereby possessing some power and supremacy over such elements of irradiant light and static being. Nevertheless, the Vaathara believe the stars to be a fragment of the earlier worshipped light of [[pantheons:deities:caelarkhe|Caelarkhe]], and that such astronomical bodies influence the occurrences of the mortal plane. Accordingly, their worship of Moravir is predicated on this, who is believed to have stolen secrets from the formation of the stars simply by residing in an era where the stars were formed. Thus, Moravir is the elder spirit of the Valdaen, who resides within the night and encapsulates both mystery and forbidden knowledge in his essence. The spirit is believed by many to be the supreme god of the Valdaen, and it is from him that the gift of their magic arises.\\+It is thought by the Vaathara that the Valdaen exist in a place beyond the stars, thereby possessing some power and supremacy over such elements of irradiant light and static being.

-Owing to Moravir’s association with the stars and the night, he is associated with one of the three elements which are thought to comprise the mortal world, these being heaven, sea, and underworld, with Moravir representing the penultimate heavens. Then, Arovaera represents the sea, whose desires flow into another, and Eluvoris represents the underworld, whose flame provides the potential for growth and yet, harm. Then, [[pantheons:deities:azratha|Azratha]], who is believed among the [[races:elves:start|elven peoples]] to be an aspect of death and blight, is thought by these elves to be the imperfection of the dark who earlier had sowed his seeds of mortality throughout the world, and it is him that perfection occurs in spite of. Thus, Azratha is thought to be the agent by which humans incarnated into lesser beings, indicating the spirit’s relationship to humans in the tapestry that is the mortal plane.+Owing to Moravir’s association with the stars and the night, he is associated with one of the three elements which are thought to comprise the mortal world, these being heaven, sea, and underworld, with Moravir representing the penultimate heavens.

 As a race, they share the skin tone of the [[races:elves:arethara:start|Arethara]], being their mostly unchanged descendants. This skin tone consists of a deep golden to fair, with most being somewhere between the two states, having a golden tint but by most accounts being fair. The Vaathara also typically possess a hair color of a dirty blond, while the eyes are usually gold, which is seen as an attractive trait to the [[races:humans:eretia|Eretia]] of Ethrekas. Because of this display of golden eyes by the elves, their enslaved mortals revere this eye color and acknowledge it as something divine.\\ As a race, they share the skin tone of the [[races:elves:arethara:start|Arethara]], being their mostly unchanged descendants.
