Chislev is a neutral-aligned deity in the pantheon of Krynn. She is nature incarnate and the divine power of instinct. The animals and plants of Krynn revere Chislev, who is said to be their mother. She is served by numerous animated wooden creatures who carry out her wishes. She is a companion and mate to Zivilyn and is said to dwell in Zhan, the grand forest beyond the world. Chislev is patron to many druids and rangers. Chislev extends her divinity to the world of Krynn, feeling all that is done to it. Her moods change with the seasons, and her fury is directed at those who abuse the wild, especially in unnatural ways.

Holy Days
Harrowing, Chislmont 4th, is an important day, as it marks one of the few times when druids leave their guarded lands and travel to human settlements, blessing the crops so that they will yield. Chislevite clerics in rural areas meet with these visiting druids and share information, community, and faith.

Outside of Harrowing, every major seasonal change on the calendar is considered a holy day for the Chislevite Order. The shifts from summer to autumn, then winter, and spring are marked by celebration and festivities.
