Aralas the Prophet (?b - 1F1340)

Aralas was born into a large religious community along the shores of the Central Sea at some point in the early 1300s of Firstfall. As he grew, he came to be a servant and prohpet of the god Trenth. In 1F1338, he received a vision from Trenth, commanding him to lead his worshippers across the continent to a new home that he would provide for them. Aralas rallied the worshippers of Trenth and together they set out on a 2 year exodus to their supposed new home. Upon their arrival, they were betrayed and corrupted by Trenth, and the worshippers who once followed Aralas grew to despise him. Aralas was murdered by his former followers in 1F1340

Ayv (1F812 - 1F867)

Ayv was born in Heartwood into a farmer's family. As a young man he had a strong desire for knowledge and a profound fascination with the starry night sky. His mother died when he was just a child, and upon his father's death Ayv took his inheritance and used it to pay for an education at the Greystone Academy. During his time at the Academy his love for the heavens grew, yet he was dissatisfied with the paltry amount of knowledge that the Academy taught to their pupils on the subject. At that point in time, the knowledge of magic and how it operates had been largely lost to time during the hellwinds of the Unfallen Era. Ayv vowed to rediscover the mystery of magic and built an observatory and orrery on the site of his family's old farm. He dedicated the rest of his life studying the heavens and rediscovering the workings of magic and was successful for the most part. Over time he was joined by pupils from all over Godsbane with which he founded the Order of Observers. He died at 55.
