Redbird

Posted on October 21, 2020

This troublesome Knowing Priest comes from the far west and is of unknown age; he has claimed to have been born long before Sartar came to this land. Redbird is notorious for asserting he knows the best way to bring peace, perform rituals, and what the secrets of each cult really mean. As a result, few liked him, though most tolerate his presence. Before Starbrow’s Rebellion, Redbird had been searching the lands of Esrolia for the last living heir to the line of Sartar, and was assisted in this quest by Leika Ballista and her companions. Lunar agents had searched for this heir for decades, and abandoned it as a fruitless rumor. Yet Redbird found Temertain, and with Leika’s aid, they snuck Temertain into Boldhome, where he secretly went to the old palace and made the Flame of Sartar, dead for years, flicker to life. Redbird convinced Temertain that he could be the Philosopher King and make peace between the Empire and the tribes. Redbird was his advisor, and he wrote a peace proposal to conciliate the imperial rulers with the natives. Redbird is extraordinarily well-traveled, seeking interracial harmony and world peace, but through his arrogance has made enemies in every place he has visited.
