The Lady of Currents and Tides was a syncretic goddess devised by Ka-Ess Lizardkin and adopted as his patroness. Lizardfolk religion in the Skaugan Main was informal and included countless gods; introducing a new god or goddess was common practice after an individual or tribal revelation. The Lady's cult integrated aspects of the cults of The Mother, the moon, and the sea. Ka-Ess was also greatly affected by an encounter with a couatl, and often used the Celestial feathered serpent as an avatar or icon of The Lady.

While researching maritime lore in the library at Gravenhollow, Ka-Ess discovered several anachronistic references to the Lady, whose raiment of serpent feathers led sailors to their rescue - or doom.
