Portia is the goddess of wisdom. Her aim is to seek out knowledge, and new ideas and experiences. Portia has an almost child-like curiosity about the world, and seeks to understand as much about it as possible. Her clerics, on the other hand, see wisdom as something that needs to be guarded and protected.

Portia is most often associated with the Butterfly.

Portia was the last of the goddesses, and it is said that she was made by the others in order to settle a dispute. The other Gods were arguing who was the most powerful, and as each of them thought it was them. In order to settle the dispute, they agreed to create an independent entity. At the time, there were no creatures, so the gods set about creating different creatures to settle the dispute. Each of the gods set about creating their own creatures, and each of the creatures, when questioned, chose their creators. This only led to more arguments. The gods decided to try again, but how to overcome the bias of the creatures. This time it was decided that each of the gods would offer what they thought was the best part of them in order to create a new entity.
