Corellon Larethian

Sources present Corellon as the creator and preserver of the elven race and the foremost member of the Seldarine. Mythic actions attributed to Corellon across editions include a primeval battle with the orc god Gruumsh—during which Corellon is said to have taken Gruumsh's eye—and the banishment of the drow goddess Lolth (Araushnee) to the Abyss. Edition material (summarized from Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes and other supplements) links Corellon's mutability to elven origins, and these mythic deeds are used in campaign sources to explain enmities (for example, with the orc pantheon) and the central place of Corellon in elven identity.

The supplied sources do not provide a single authoritative visual description; rather they emphasize Corellon's gender-fluid or androgynous presentation. The 5th edition Player's Handbook describes Corellon as androgynous, while earlier summaries (citing Deities & Demigods, 1980) state Corellon is 'alternatively male or female, both or neither.' Edition materials also offer symbolic representations in some contexts (for example, moon and star imagery noted in various edition summaries), but no consistent full-figure portrayal is reproduced in the provided excerpts.

Corellon is portrayed as the patron and exemplar of domains highly valued by elven cultures: Magic, Music, Arts, Crafts, Poetry, and Warfare. As leader of the Seldarine, Corellon occupies a top rank in elven divine hierarchy and is credited in setting lore with intervening in divine conflicts (taking Gruumsh's eye; banishing Lolth) that shape inter-pantheon relations. Source material that is part of game mechanics (noted in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes) introduced the player-facing 'blessed of Corellon' characteristic allowing some elves in play to change sex after a long rest; this is presented in the sources as an edition-specific game trait that reflects in-setting themes of mutability rather than as a detailed supernatural power listed in the narrative excerpts.
