In many [[campaign setting]]s '''Oberon''' is the [[fey]] deity of nature, wild places, and animals, and member of the [[Canon:List of core deities (3e)|3rd Edition default pantheon]]. Oberon is the consort of [[Titania]] and a member of her [[Seelie Court]]. These deities are taken from [[Wikipedia:English folklore|English folklore]], where Oberon (Auberon) and his wife Titania rule over the fairies (e.g., [[wikipedia:William Shakespeare|Shakespeare]]'s [[wikipedia:A Midsummer Night's Dream|A Midsummer Night's Dream]]). The medieval concept of the character Oberon arose from a multitude of earlier sources like dwarf sorcerer [[wikipedia:Alberich|Alberich]] from [[wikipedia:Nibelungenlied|Nibelungenlied]]. {{Stub}}
