Forest Walkers of Halta

The region dominated by the treetop Republic of Halta contains a number of forest walkers whose purview is the individual forests of the land, which they wander and care for. These gods are worshipped by the Haltans, and were signatories of the Treaty of High Order and Wild Roots with the Fair Folk.

Glorious Jade Branch: Branch is the most powerful of Halta’s forest walkers, loyal lieutenant of Caltia the Eternal who oversees Halta on her behalf. He is also her lover, and his position of primacy amongst forest walkers is certainly not unrelated.

Glorious Jade Branch is considered by the Haltans to be god of the whole Haltan forest, though there IS no such forest, and he is in fact only god of the coniferous forest stretching between the River of Golden Branches and River of Black Branches.

Whispering Needles: Forest walker of the coniferous forest between the Silver and Blackwater Rivers.

Shining Trunk: Forest walker of the coniferous forest between the Blackwater River and the River of Golden Branches.

Tylokan Root Binder: Forest walker of the mixed coniferous-deciduous forests on the southeastern border of Halta. While technically his purview includes deciduous trees, Tylokan has openly taken sides with Caltia against Golden-Eyed Jorst, and backs Haltan efforts to spread conifers while not doing the same for Linowan attempts to spread deciduous trees. In the old stories and memories of the gods, he was once the most jovial of the Northeastern forest walkers, but over the centuries his personality has grown more acidic.

Steel-Skinned Ubil: Forest walker of the Ironwood forest found in southern Halta, Jarrith, and Soja.
