Lightjay

Lightjay, the inspired, is the god of all that colors the sentient spirit. He is said to fill the heads of Roostlings with ideas, brightness, creativity and grand plans. Lightjay is believed to have filled the outlines of Roost with animation and dimension. He is often depicted as a small but brilliant jay bird, a crest atop his head and his tail and flight feathers a symphony across the color spectrum. He is said to move quickly and in a zigzag pattern, which is why he is the hardest of the Creators to spot.

His worshippers are fewer now than they have ever been, as people across the planet claim to have lost connection to his spirit. But those who are left are as deeply devoted to dear Lightjay as ever, praising him for their inspiration and their triumph of will.
