Butternut

Butternut handles the clan's religious affairs and tends to the lair shrine. She conducts naming ceremonies, blesses the dead and conducts the appropriate religious ceremonials on holy days. Also in charge of the exalting of dragons to Earthshaker, a duty she takes very seriously.
Butternut is very devoted to Earthshaker; so devoted in fact, that she has sent all her children to serve under him. If Earthshaker was the type of god to go around smiting the unbelievers with his holy army, Butternut would be marching in the front lines. For now she settles for aggressively pushing pamphlets about the greatness of Earthshaker onto unsuspecting passers-by.

Disapproves of the clan's retreat from their old lair, Butternut is of the opinion that they should go back and fight for their ancestral lands. She hasn't adapted to life beneath the waves very well, as she feels cut off from her deity, her connection to Earthshaker severed along with the ties they had to their home in Earth. Butternut prefers to keep to the deepest tunnels of the new lair, where she has rebuilt the shrine of Earthshaker to the best of her ability. She misses home.

From the CR with Akal:

She is all ready and packed! The filigree is a parting gift from Topsoil, and the books are Bloodcircle's. The collection of stone reliefs depicting great heroic acts of Earthshaker's devotees is Butternut's own. We'll miss her terribly, but wish her well!

- Is Bordeaux & Chandra's Great-granddaughter through Vinetheign. Is Copperlight's niece & Sangue's cousin.

- Traveled with Copperlight to the Pillar of the World after Chandra found the old tunnels that led there

- Works in concert with Copper to ensure that Oakrest remains spiritually grounded (pun perhaps intended)

- After the tunnels were sealed, worked with Copper and the others trapped within to ensure that they found enough food & supplies to keep going, and also that in the darkest moments beneath the earth, that they all knew a single flame would let them all shine like crystals in the sun
