Xegony, Queen of Air
If you ever chased an aviak along the coast of Antonica, you were hunting the descendants of Xegony’s first favorites.
The Queen of Air
Xegony rules the Plane of Air. She appears as a young elven maiden with angel-like wings, and of all the elemental powers she is the most delicate and benevolent, and the most revered for it. She is also an enigma, because she has never turned her attention to the world below, staying focused on the elemental powers.

First Flight
An aviak tale, “First Flight,” says the creatures that walked on two legs or four displeased her; they were so ungainly. So Xegony made a beautiful winged race, and they built their nests in the choicest places on Norrath, because they were her chosen.
Over time they began to whisper beak to beak that their wings proved they were better than the wretches who had to walk everywhere, and they looked down on the other races, both literally and figuratively. The aviaks tell it as the story of their fall from grace.
One of four
With Fennin Ro, Tarew Marr and the Rathe, she is one of the elemental powers the lore credits with their own creation, and the Planes of Power lore credits the four elemental gods with Quarm.
