Avatar Descriptions
Branchala's avatar's assume the form of whatever folk he is visiting.
When choosing to mingle with mortals, he dampens his deific glow.
In this way, he can join in festivities without garnering bothersome
adulation.
Branchala's avatars unfailingly display some association with the
forest. He appears as a woodsman, a ranger, a bard from a great
forest, or even a heathen druid - any guise associated with trees.

Notes
Like all bards, Branchala loves music, singing, dancing, and
merriment. He fills his days with quick-witted jokes, clever ruses,
and songs to suit every occasion.
Motivations
Branchala seeks singers and storytellers to spread the news about
the victories won by the Heroes of the Lance. Branchala hopes to
repair the wounded spirits of Ansalon's folk, encouraging them to
rebuild their world. Much remains to be done.
Description
The Bard King Branchala is god of music. A companion of
Habbakuk, he followed his friend so he could help forge worlds
and imbue Krynn's first creatures with the lyric and untamed
melody of his immortal soul.
Branchala's music is the song of all living souls. His melodies evoke
undeniable passion in every listener's ear. Branchala's music dwells
to some extent in every creature of Krynn. Some even say that all
hearts beat in time to the mysterious melodies. Elves and kender
consider Branchala the highest god.
