In folklore, Beira is the name given to the Cailleach Bheur, the personification of winter and the mother of all the gods and goddesses in Scottish mythology. She is associated with one of the Celtic creation myths (which usually pertain to local land features) and bears a similar role to Gaea in Greek mythology and Jord in Norse mythology. She has white hair, dark blue skin, and rust-colored teeth. The longest night of the year marked the end of her reign as Queen of Winter, at which time she visited the Well of Youth and, after drinking its magic water, grew younger day by day. In reality, the goddess exists in the elemental plane, somewhere within the realm of ice.

She has been worshipped for generations by the cailleachs as they work their dark magicks. She created the first coven of the blue hags during the Age of Myths in an attempt to again cover the world in ice, for the previous ice age was her doing. Her plans failed and she was banished back to the realm of elements. Occasionally, her followers come close to bringing her back, the closest one ever came was in the late 1700’s. Near Leicester, England, a coven of cailleachs had made a home in the cold winter. Sneaking out from a parcel of land called “Black Anny's Bower Close,” the witches would gather victims for rites to summon their goddess. Some were children, their mothers turned to cailleachs did not hesitate to offer them to their new goddess in the hopes that snow would forever blanket the land. However, the archaeologists Theodore and Deborah Ravenhurst arrived and put an end to the coven. They took away cursed objects that the cailleachs had gathered, and sealed them away. However, in recent times, with the world’s shifting climate, cailleachs have become desperate and intend to bring Beira back into the Physical World.
