Luenor

Luenor (loo-en-or), also known as xxxx, is a god of agriculture in Huenarnoan religion. Most modern depictions have him have the body of a man and the head of a ground sloth, usually scantily clad and with Karlabon, a pronged spear converted to a scythe. He is amongst the most venerated deities in modern Huenarno, especially among rural communities.

Unique among the other popular deities of Huenarnoan religion, Luenor rarely appears in myths in prominent roles, with only one lengthy tale, The Fall of Rorier, casts him as a main character. In it, the formerly boastful Luenor is brought low by the war with the fallen god Rorier. Afterwards, he retires to a farmstead and vows to never take a life again. He uses his powers to help those in need, though never in combat.

Mythology
See also: The Fall of Rorier While he sometimes appears in other myths, the only one where Luenor takes an active role is The Fall of Rorier. Most versions of the story introduce him as a warrior with the strength of 20 men, though the exact number can range from ten to a hundred.

History
The idea of a war god becoming an agricultural god seemingly predates the modern idea of Luenor. A fragmentary tablet found in the ancient city of Kitack describes "Plumar, who, defeating the great beast Janoh [a possible precursor to Hanot], took up the mantle of the Master of the Farmstead; and, upon his land, he grow beans and maize and squash; and he cut down weeds with the force of ten men with the great blade Naerotal . . ." The tablet dates to about 1600 BCE, several centuries before the first evidence of domestic ground sloths in the region. With the tablet lacking a clear description, it is unknown if Plumar was a direct predecessor to Luenor, or merely a source of imspiration.
