-==== Introduction ==== 
- 
-Professor Kazrai Stem, A seeker of Eldrich knowledge and dangerous trinkets. Teaching what she knows to those willing to learn. Wife to the //Arch-Fey// [[character:Valour]] her public appearance has always been slightly clouded in mystery. Even as a teacher at the esteemed //Remon's Academy// there are many questions left unanswered. \\ 
-She is well known as being the once Headmaster of the infamous [[location:sea_spire|Sea Spire]] before it closed down leaving her authority on Eldrich knowledge un-questioned by her peers. \\ 
- 
-A rather tall woman with short blond hair. Her otherwise simple beige complexation covered in magic markings from head to toe she applied herself, each one offering different boons for her. The art of //Magic Marks// is a rare one in the world. only a few have mastered the arcane and ink enough to translate its power onto flesh. 
- 
-Kazrai's past  
- 
-Professor Kazrai Stem is a seeker of eldritch knowledge and teaches what she knows to those willing to learn. Before meeting [[character:Valour]] She lived an isolated life buried within her studies, despite her public appearance as headmaster of the [[location:sea_spire|Sea Spire]] her personal life remains clouded in mystery up until recently. \\  
-Kazrai is self-motivated, Up until recently believing her own goals and desires out-way anything else in the world. This has since changed to a more open minded view. Dramatic changes left Kazrai a mother of many children and the duties to care for them. Balancing her current research, Teaching, Motherly duties while being pregnant has proven to be like nothing she had prepared for. \\ 
-Before, Kazrai was more than capable of doing unspeakable things in the pursuit of the knowledge she craves, Yet now compassion and empathy have creeped their way into her being. A second thought crossing her mind before each decision is made, Asking herself not how her actions would affect her but those around her, Her children. \\  
-Her end goal remains vague. To help [[character:Valour]] reach his Godhood through their children. To uncover the lost secrets of the //Old Gods//. To simply embrace this new style of life? One thing is for sure Kazrai will not give up learning and seeking new knowledge. \\ 
- 
-Outside of her unending thirst for knowledge her time is stimulated with a few hobbies such as her collection of magic trinkets, items she takes a fascination with the quirks of their magical properties and the history of how they came to be. She is always on the search for magic items. Her favorite type being magic books or tomes which she often reads to her children under the guise of a story. \\ 
- 
-Before she founded the [[location:sea_spire|Sea Spire]] Kazrai: or at least the flesh known as Kazrai, was known as Grendal, a member of the now disbanded [[faction:blinding_spear|Blinding Spear]]. \\ A male human, A war veteran thrown into the Ashlem war during his teenage years. his skills with magic and weaving it though ink earned him a spot among the [[faction:blinding_spear|Blinding Spear]]. \\ 
-After the war and after the group was dishonorably disbanded Grendal went into hiding, laying low as a magic mark artist in the north of Reton. only coming out as a man named //Griss// when his old leader ask him a favor. 
- 
-Despite her isolated social life beginnings, Kazrai can make small talk with almost anyone, coming off as pomace and entitled. She often spreads the topics of Gods, secrets, magic items, or teaching, these being her favorite topics to discuss. \\  
-As a Woman her social life has expanded greatly. As a man Kazrai would do nothing but smoke in his office scrolling through ancient text. But now as //Valour// is out sailing the multiverse the desire for Kazrai to make "friends" and relationships has grown dramatically. Tending to her children, Feeding, clothing, bathing and teaching them has opened her mind and heart to a bigger picture. \\ 
- 
-The public views Professor Stem as somewhat of a hermit so it was quite a surprise when they saw that a new headmaster seemed to have taken his place, A woman as well. Nobody really knew the name or face of //Sea Spire's// Headmaster so the gender-swap remained a secret. Both students and the public seemed to welcome this new Headmaster, Far more social and with children of her own. A lot of students and their guardians relaxed. \\ Though the school still studied taboo arcane and there are many many secrets in the basement floors of the spire. Although twisted by the eldritch arts she studies Kazrai still carries a sense of lady like behavior and pride in proper high strung affairs. 
- 
-Kazrai taught two weeks every month during schooling time, a class of around 30 students. She teaches about Eldrich lore, Law and logic, Monstrosities. Arbitrations an how their parts can be used in magic, Scroll and spell casting and her favorite topic. Magic items 
- 
-Skilled with close quarters combat using daggers. Not very strong but extremely quick and agile. With several magic daggers in her arsenal Kazrai is equipped to deal with any foe. 
- 
-**Sea Spire's Closure** \\ 
-After the decleration of independance by [[nation:Greyhawk]], The leaders of //Reton// Increased thier preassure on the //Sea Spire// commiting to quiet slander campaings and cutting several support lines. With Kazrai's building duties as a parent a bitter decision was made to close the //Sea Spire// as a place of learning. It would remain as a public space still under Kazrai's ownership. The lower levels will be magically sealed. \\ 
-Kazrai hopes to continue teaching at [[faction:remon_academy|Remon's Academy]] 
- 
-**The Puzzle** \\ 
-Recently Kazrai has become obsessed with a hypothesis, That everything is somehow connected. She has been studying the events of the past few hundred years in Mor-Thir over and over again driving to breaking point, Lost in her own swirling thoughts about something greater that they are all pawns of. The eldritch being she serves seems to slumber. Left alone with the eye Stem and her growing paranoia. \\ Visions of the Abolith of the Underdark have driven her out of his spire in search of a way into the //UnderDark// where she hopes to find answers.

-==== Background: Scholar ==== 
- 
-Kazrai has spent many many years learning the lore of the multiverse in an effort to understand all there is to understand and more importantly make sense of things that do not. Professor Kazrai Stem has scoured the lands in search of manuscripts, studied every scroll she got her tentacles on, and sapped the knowledge from the greatest experts on the subjects of Godhood, Dreams, Magical items and other topics that interested her. All of Kazrai's efforts, all of the years she has spent toiling away in her spire studying every word on every page, every experiment conducted, every reaction, every hypothesis tested has made Kazrai a master in her fields of study relating to the eldritch old gods and other topics of interest. \\ 
-Before her family, Kazrai was defined by her research, work and extensive studies. Devoted to her life of study and pursuits of further knowledge. She once valued knowledge above everything else and showed little restraint in obtaining it by any means she deems fit. But family and motherhood have ever so slightly softened her demeanour and now knowledge is pursued ever so slightly less obsessive. 
- 
-**Change in Contract** \\ 
-//It is most...awkward, shameful, I am not fully sure how to handle or deal with it. My partner, Valour seems to have used her power to re-write the contract we were both bound too and it has had...uhh..lets say dramatic effects.. // 
- 
-**Proper Speech** \\ 
-//Vocabulary is very important in my line of work, you can quickly tell the intelligence of a creature by their wide variety and use of various elaborate and extraordinary phrases, Its almost like a code such as Thief's can't or Drudic but...well far more sophisticated and highly proper.// 
- 
-**Same Books, Different Teachers** \\ 
-// With my extensive time and thorough investigation I find myself re-reading many books in my constant search for more knowledge, however they are still an interesting read as a refresher and to see how different authors convey the same subject, its very intriguing indeed. I come to realise that I am part of this chain as I pass on what I learn from these books to my children and students and perhaps one day they will too pass on what they learn to the next willing listener.// 
- 
-**More known, Less Joy** \\ 
-//Learning of a mystery is quite a joy I must say, For it means new knowledge to learn and new questions to have answered. I envy the ignorant as they have far more opportunity to learn they I.// 
- 
-//Knowledge is power, this much is truth for the more you know of your enemy the more likely you are to survive, Its only logical that the more you know the more evolved you are. The highest power is held by those beings most knowledgeable. It is the source of power and evolution. \\ The pursuit of Knowledge is limitless, Only the gods know the peace I crave but even the gods search for more power, more knowledge. the infinite possibility in all existence is truly a wonder for us all the marvel in.// 
- 
-//My Dominion over all knowledge is absolute, Only time stands in my way// 
- 
-//My precious school, it is truly everything I desire and represents all my work, Knowledge is fine but the opportunity to pass the knowledge onto the worthy few....I must say the idea seemed foolish when first presented to me however I have....grown fond of it. I can be myself with my students, no need to hide. Most students desire to learn out ways their fear of the strange and unknown, they remind me of myself. Work to keep my university staffed and running is a satisfaction i have not had the pleasure of knowing before. \\ Sea spire university has pushed me to peruse new forms of stimulation. I always found that most information I read is spread across many different scriptures and its often slightly incorrect or contradicts itself. I have devoted some of my time to creating my own line of tomes, books and scriptures to sell or gift to those I find worthy. If I ever were to meet my untimely end then these books and my spire will set my legacy in stone.// 
- 
-// I find myself easily distracted by the idea of learning something new, I used to think it normal I have noticed that now its starting to cause me to falter in judgment. I got caught in a trap because I blindly followed the path to an ancient book and my students now seem to play games with me. I must get a better hold of myself but how can I when any whisper of knowledge is worth hearing. \\ Mortals for the most part are terrified of the strange, the unknown and especially the different. I originally theorised it was simply due to my likes when experiencing it first hand, but I have begun to notice that now mortals are hunting and killing each-other just for looking different, its a waste of energy and seems idiotic but it is a real threat, some of my students have fallen to this fate also.// 
- 
-//Unlocking an ancient mystery is worth the price of a civilisation.//
