Lorelei Dexlus

, also sometimes known by her pseudonym, The Traveler — or more intimately: Cabbage — was one of the four fabled Dexlus Siblings, alongside her sister, Nica, and two brothers, Felix and Kasnick. She had a reputation as a saviour ( though against her own self-belief ), and was well-renowned by the few that managed to meet her. Despite this, Lorelei was quite an unknown figure relative to the more famous and public individuals in the Cradle Quadrant.
She had involvement in a remarkable number of events all across the Cradle Quadrant, even reaching into other quadrants, notably Aeternatus Quadrant, as chronicled in Aeternatus: LORELEI. Lorelei was also the only entity to visit more than four Quadrants, and out of all of Caerulus, was the entity to traverse it the most.

Lorelei appeared as a young woman with a petite build. She had disheveled wavy long green hair that was styled in a wolf cut-like fashion with feathered bangs that hung around violet-magenta eyes. Lorelei's usual attire consisted of a dark brown thigh-length sleeveless dress that she wore underneath a high-cropped green hooded cloak. She had dark brown arm warmers that reached her upper arms, with semi-transparent stockings that she wore with traveling boots. Lorelei wore many accessories over her lifetime, many being sentimental gifts from those she met from her travels. Her most notable accessories included her Magicite head ornament, and her trademark wanderer's scarf.
Before the events of The Dexlus Awakening, Lorelei was a popular teenage girl, as such, she wore a variety of different contemporary clothing. During her time on Queros, her hair was blonde.
After the events of Breaking of Anima: Final Mix, Lorelei wore generic traveler's clothing so as not to stick out. The only feature of her outfit that was somewhat notable, was her brown bomber hat and satchel bag she carried.
During the events of , Lorelei was a seasoned traveler, and for the harsh desert environment of Klinemeir, her attire consisted of bandages that covered her entire body, beige harem pants, and an off-whtie shawl. She also wore a beige type of a bomber hat — unlike her previous one — and had an ornate type of dark blue-green garb with yellow designs tied and wrapped around her hips.
By the time Lorelei had been caught in the Chaos Crucible, she had returned to her default outfit, which she acquired some time between the events of Breaking of Anima: Final Mix and . Though this was the first time her default outfit was seen in recorded history.
During the events of Aeternatus: LORELEI, Lorelei found new clothing on Exodius as she spent time repairing its Vast Gate. The clothing was very similar, only dyed black. After conversing with The Deuteragonist and returning to Cradle, Lorelei's hair was slowly turning black at the roots, giving her two-toned hair.
==Personality==
Lorelei was quiet, reserved, and mellow. When opened up, she showed traits of being ardent, affectionate, and sometimes even teasing. Most of her mellow and reserved-nature personality traits stemmed from the finale of The Dexlus Awakening, wherein her entire life was discarded in favour of a narrative pre-determined to which she would later come to the conclusion to herself after meeting The Deuteragonist after the events of .
As a young child, Lorelei was competitive, loud, and an entertainer, constantly butting heads with her sister, Nica, and fueling rivalrous facets with her brothers, Felix and Kasnick. As she grew into adolescence, these traits would evolve and grow into her becoming boisterous, vibrant, and rebellious. Lorelei was considered a 'popular girl' by Modern Period standards, and as such, had all of the traits of a generic high school girl. Friends and family noted her to be enthusiastic, naive, and disorganized, among other things.
After the finale of The Dexlus Awakening, Lorelei's entire personality saw drastic change. With the loss of her planet, Queros, and the loss of her mortal life as she once knew it, her initial personality was amplified, becoming more energetic and carefree as shown during the events of Breaking of Anima. Though this was actually a façade, and she was making up for unresolved trauma by hiding behind an ego that flooded a cheerful, nigh-reckless attitude . Though she would have found an intermittent balance, the destruction of another planet — shown in the Fall of Exodius — caused her psyche to take considerable damage.
After unknowingly returning to Cradle, Lorelei's reserved and mellow nature evolved. Not wanting to create ties just for them to be broken, she struggled to make real connections, and often alienated herself when opportunities presented themselves. Lorelei became asocial, depressed, and heavily relied on material experiences such as traveling and vicarious living to keep herself from completely shutting down. Suicidal tendencies were unavailable to her due to her Awakened Dexlus Blood, and she became especially jaded, defeatist, and fatalistic.
Wandering Cradle alone for some millennia caused her viewpoints on life, destiny, and chance, to become unhopeful. Though she still held the heroic ideals her and her siblings held in their mortal lives, her insecurities and schemas prevented her from seeking fulfilment in such areas.
In her later years as The Traveler, her psyche turned to a slightly more positive outlook, trusting in the events and history that came to pass at face value. No longer projecting a doom-like perspective onto the universe, Lorelei became more open-minded and content.
Whilst caught in the Chaos Crucible, Lorelei's reserved and aloof nature further expanded back to her teenage personality, becoming more restless and rebellious, though with a mellow lens. Particularly Eona Mori and Shiro Vinland reminded her what it was like to metaphorically be alive, and she was shown to be more humorous, bold, and reactive. Though she was still hesitant at points, Lorelei's character developed to what she always wanted to be, only this time with the experiences she held onto.
After the events of The Crucible of Worlds, Lorelei became much more sentimental, mellow, and content. Taking what she had learned from her friends, she became more trusting and reliant on others. Her hesitant nature grew more passionate during the events of as she attempted to save Michaela Crowne. Not allowing failure to overcome her once again, and with the help of of Michaela — and by suggestion of The Librarian — Lorelei left Klinemeir in stride, seeking to finally repair her relationship with her siblings after some four thousand years.
After reconnecting with Nica briefly, Lorelei returned to Aeternatus for final closure, as relations with Felix and Kasnick were unavailable at the time. During the events of Aeternatus: LORELEI, Lorelei experienced yet another change in perspective, though not so much through her personality. Upon the revelation that The Purge was predestined due to Lorelei's meeting with The Deuteragonist, Lorelei became bitter, conflating a numerous amount of events together as a fault of The Council of Cats. Unknowingly housing Malkuro, she became much more destructive, mercurial, and rejection-sensitive, looking to quickly blame anything she could. Though her experiences from Isekampaign Chapter II and The Crucible of Worlds she would not forget, becoming determined to not fall into hold habits. Lorelei turned these new emotions of anger, bitterness, and spitefulness into passions to fight, love, and care much more so than she had in her previous lives.
==Background==
Lorelei was one of the Four Dexlus Siblings. She was a VoTT risen by Ludic himself, and quickly became the traveler/wanderer archetype character within . Before her exalted status, she was a regular high school teenager, popular, and a cheerleader in an unnamed city on Queros. She liked shopping, sports, fashsion, and her boyfriend, Devron Bates. She left her mortal life at the age of nineteen, one year out of high school.
During her tenure as The Traveler, she held exalted positions such as a Hero of Turin, the Archon of Conjuration for the Viridye Archontate, and the God of Restoration for the Aeternatus Divine Assemblage.

==Powers and Abilities==
Lorelei was one of the strongest VoTTs of all time. She was an adept and experienced physical fighter, had immense Magickal prowess, and had one of the largest and densest Anima in , all of which were on par with lesser Daescin Entities.
God-like strength: Lorelei was extremely strong, able to push, pull, and near-lift smaller celestial bodies, such as small moons and asteroids. 
God-like Magick: Lorelei saw positions in Quadrant Pantheons due to her Magickal Prowess, often superseding any local god. She was able to cast both Epic and Mythic Magick with great finesse. She could affect larger celestial bodies, such as stars, entire systems, and system clusters at her height.
God speed: Barring the power cap, Lorelei was the fastest entity within , able to move many layers into faster-than-light. Lorelei was especially stealthy, able to stay undetected to even those who were niche in perception.
Near-god endurance: Lorelei was incredibly durable to her contemporaries, but lacked stamina. She was able to take full power blows from Xerneas Oblivion for up to ten minutes. She was one of the greatest Grand Counter users in all of Aethsty.
Genius intellect: Lorelei had genius intellect, able to Magickally calculate on the molecular level with great precision and swiftness. Rarely did she make calculation errors, and rarely did her predictions of the flow of an event or outcome go wrong.
God-like perception: Lorelei was able to sense the intent of Anima from multiple systems away. She could sense when an entity entered a large celestial body, and had Anima precognition up to hours before it happened. Lorelei was notoriously difficult to surprise or approach with ill-intent, even whilst Suppressed, shrouded, hidden, or otherwise. Her reaction-cognition time was so great, that it was even difficult to surprise her narratively.
Influential charisma: Lorelei was popular in high school during her mortal life. She was an entertainer as a child and adolescent, able to hold a group of people's attention for a long period of time with her directness and assertiveness. Lorelei usually got what she wanted with her words and demeanour. She was rarely awkward as The Traveler, and often diffused her misinterpreted aloofness swiftly with ease. Though she struggled in larger intimate circles later in life. 
God Anima: Being a Dexlus, Lorelei had large Anima, even in comparison to her contemporary Daescin Entities. Lorelei's Anima could extend the entirety of the Aeternatus Quadrant, and around eighty percent of the Cradle Quadrant, which were lightyears in length.
