Mythos
In Lilliend, Brightwell is feared as the Dreaming Vixen, who elected to sleep away eternity in the Mists while her sister Haurau chose to live in the blue dome of sky as the consort of Thunder-Father and mother of all life. Brightwell's dreams manifested as arcane magic and her nightmares as monsters, but neither was a threat until Thunder-Father, motivated by lust, cracked the blue orb of sky so he could get at her. Brightwell gave birth to, and was consequently assaulted by, the evil god known as il Demonio, which lead to her giving birth to the good goddess Ashar. Driving all from her company, Brightwell warned Thunder-Father of the consequences of his actions as he fled home. When the sky-god nevertheless ended up destroying Haurau, her voice resounded from the Mists, reminding him of her prophecy. Magic and monsters now flow into the world through the cracks Thunder-Father made in the blue orb of sky as Brightwell sleeps.
Worship
Brightwell is feared as the source of all magic, all monsters and the conflict between good and evil in Lilliend, and her worshipers are few. The ones she does have focus on group dream interpretations and secretive spellcasting. An apocalyptic cult known as the Dark Dreamers conspires to sow chaos and destruction throughout the Wartorn Cluster, based on dream omens they believe are divine messages from Brightwell meant to lead to the end of Thunder-Father and all his works. Another cult, the Daughters of Doom, worship Thunder-Father in a similar way, in the belief that Brightwell is their patron's destined future bride, and that she will be the Mother of All Life in a new and perfect world.
Other
There is currently no proof that Brightwell has any connection to the Brightwell Coven of Gothic Earth.
