Cathran Lorekeeper
History
She was raised by her maternal aunt and uncle as her father didn't want anything to do with her after her mother died in childbirth because it would only remind him of the tragedy that had befallen his family and the woman that he had loved. From the time that she could walk and talk she was taught that Knowledge is Power and her aunt and uncle pursued her education accordingly, Cathran taking the lesson to heart. Her aunt and uncle were well enough off so they would hire sages that were pretty proficient in their fields of expertise to teach her about their sphere of knowledge.
Cathran never held her tongue when it came to asking questions and focused on her studies intensely. As her father had disowned her she had no surname for a long time, until she became old enough that she could choose one for herself at the age of 16 years old. When she did she chose the Lorekeeper as that was the nickname that people had given her when she was growing up because she was always learning about anything she could and retained pretty much all of it, spouting off random facts occasionally to whoever would listen to her tangents. It also represents her endless appetite for information about the world around her.
She had a wide breadth of knowledge before she even set out to adventure a decade and a half ago. She has just expanded her range of knowledge since then. Her adventuring career had brought her into interactions with a lot of influential figures, it is somewhat nebulous as to how and when her divinity started to be expressed. She has since then grown immensely in power.
Notable events she has participated in are
- Helping craft the weapon that ended the fifth horseman
- Fight against several entities that have threatened the Planet since then
- She helped set up and get the Embassy of the Gods running in Babel.
- She most recently has been helping with fighting back the Thii in Kandra.
- She has also helped deal with an entity that is known as D.R.E.K.I and rid him from the City of Brass when he had attempted to ascend into a state of Godhood, her and comrades having been able to foil his plans for the time being, despite him still being about in the world at large.
People in Aetveris may recall the Trial that King Cormick had done to make an example out of her during, she had tried to rebel against the authority of the Court and ignore the punishment that she was given for destruction of property owned by a Mr. Jack Urnov, and her subsequent banning from the Lambert District after she would finish her sentance.
Personality
She is very blatant about what she thinks and doesn't bite her tongue almost ever, she thinks that if she did so it would make her less genuine and would rob her of some of her credibility as a person. She also believes in a code of conduct when it comes to combat, this code that she follows is that she will never attack a person/creature that is unaware of her, she believes that attacking something that is not clearly attacking you back doesn't allow for them to change their actions and/or makes you a coward if you must attack when they are unaware of your presence.
Her presence is overwhelming for most people at this point in her life, she doesn't bite her tongue unless it is absolutely necessary and is completely willing to speak her mind, no matter how controversial her opinions may be. This has caused her issues in the past.
Relationships
- She has diplomatic relations with The Architect, the entity that runs The City of Brass.
- She has taught at Mirrandrar for nigh a decade now, teaching in Divination and Alchemical studies there.
- She is the focus of a Church of Scholars and other Intellectually focused individuals, due to her demigoddess status in the world. She has the Domains of Magic, Knowledge, Runes, and Travel as her major Domains that she provides and those who worship her find refuge in.
- She is a Associate of The Storm Siren, another Demigoddess that resides in the world of Chronus.
