Sequoia, the Huntress, is depicted as a beautiful elven woman clad in leathers, with a mighty longbow. She is the goddess of nature, elves, and the moons. Some clerics of the Huntress claim that it was she who gave the elven druids the knowledge to create the first mangals, and to gather up all the animals for preservation for 500 years.

Sequoia's greatest foes are Urmaggr and the Burning Hate, and she tries her best to pretend Numiel doesn't exist. She coöperates with other deities only infrequently, though on rare occasions she will work with Hafgufa or Dalya.

Trees, plants, and forests, wisdom, wild animals, particularly birds of prey, unicorns, bugs that fly or crawl, particularly moths, virginity and abstinence (or, failing that, homosexuality, especially lesbianism), cats, winter, masks, the moons, silver, the numbers 7, 12, 30, and 360, and the calendar are sacred to Sequoia. Her priests are celibate themselves, and variously preach abstinence, monogamy, and homosexuality.
