Patron goddess of Heron. In life Roana was a proud orc barbarian. Early on she befriended the halfling Trilliam. Their friendship was so great that Trilliam even named her nation after Roana. Together they were the first to rise up against their elven masters. She was determined to free her people and bring them back to the rolling fields of their forefathers. In godhood she protects her people and encourages them to make war upon each other to keep their edge, so that if the elves ever do invade, her people will be ready. She is the only of the heroes to have progeny. Her children’s children have gone on to lead the greatest of the orc clans roaming the plains of Heron. Her clerics act as shamans of the warbands and midwives to the women. They empower their warbands to great heights of ferocity. Her paladins act as generals to the Clan Leaders or strike out into the world to hunt the traitorous orc clans that betrayed Roana to the Litch during second war. Roana hates the Silvari Elves, but swore oath of friendship to the Iseri Drow for their aid in the rebellion. Her followers raid all who travel their plains save the drow, who may always pass unhindered and any cleric of Trilliam, to honor the goddesses's bond of friendship.
