Zorih

Zorih is the goddess of sleep. She does very little and spends most of her time asleep. All dreams come from her, and from her own dreams strange creatures are created. The Kalashtar were also created by Zorih's dreams. She will communicate with her followers as they sleep.

It is unknown if Zorih has ever been awake, she has only ever been observed sleeping. In her dreams she is also quite passive, going with the flow and simply allowing things to happen. However, she has blessed rest, granting sleep healing qualities. She also created the spells catnap and sleep.

From her dreams came the Kalashtar, a race very similar to humans, except more transient. They refuse to stay in the same place for long, moving without end. They find sleep and rest comes easily, and they do not concern themselves with hard work in any way, simply going with the flow. The Kalashtar do not dream, however, except when Zorih speaks to them. Some can enter Zorih's dreams if they have meditated enough and become dedicated to the art. Doing this, they can travel through her dreams, entering in one spot and leaving through another. These are known as the dreamers.

Some other creatures and monsters have sprung forth from Zorih's dreams. They can appear anywhere and appear fully formed. Some people even find themselves slipping into her dreams physically, disappearing from Asem into a world of dreams. Sometimes forever, sometimes for a period of time.
