Once a minor deity of scarecrows, with stories of fear and dread to scare farmhand children to behave.
When the great mourning hit everything changed however. Being one of the few gods to survive, Lord Barleycorn soon took on the responsibility as god of the harvest to aid the farmers who still needed to grow vast amounts of produce for the cities.
There are few beings respected more by the farming community than Lord Barleycorn as when the hordes of undead came for them, it was he who made the scarecrows jump to life to defend the living. A practice continued by his druids today, who animate scarecrows to help protect the fields and farmers.
Druids who worship Lord Barleycorn are required to help any farmstead of their choosing during harvest season and may not continue his/her adventuring until their duties are complete. Additionally fire magic is not granted by this god and any use of fire as a weapon or tool to destroy is considered a sin.
