Rysza, The Celestial Sorceress

Added 2024-08-20 16:08:07 +0000 UTC

Being a Celestial, Rysza has visions—of pasts, presents, and futures alike. People and organizations of power in Loomside covet this ability for their own gain. Rysza won’t lend it to them—she’s seen what will happen if she does.

But strangely enough, Rysza’s visions are what led her to this mountain range. It was only a few months ago that her Celestial blood suddenly made itself manifest, changing the hue of her eyes to a shining gold. It was then that her involuntary clairvoyance began, and she saw Loomside. And she saw…something rising from beneath the mountains, awakened by cavers who went somewhere they shouldn’t. She knew, for some reason, that she had to try to stop this herself, saving the thousands of people in the cities above.

She left behind her simple life of a mage-farmer and traveled to Loomside looking for allies to help. Finding the guilds too tempted by their own potential gains from her divine knowledge, she knew she had to be careful about who she trusted.

She never saw them in her visions, but she somehow knew the oddly calm Masque, the deeply noble human, and the ambitious little whiskerfolk were exactly who she was meant to find.
