Ixion

Ixion is the Scion of Outcasts. According to the myths, Thule considered Ixion too weak to join the Morning War, and refused to admit him into the Scions. However, Ixion followed Thule anyway, remaining hidden. As the Scions engaged in battle with the Old Ones, Ixion secretly accompanied Thule into the depths of the earth, to the chamber where Anyu coiled around Asur’s heart. Thule at once attacked Anyu, and while the great dragon was distracted, Ixion went to seize the Heart. However, he was unprepared for its power, and he was blinded. In a panic he fled back into the Abyss. The Blind God, imprinted with the light of Asur but unable to see it, wandered the World Below, hiding from the Scions who refused to consider him one of their own. His realm travels with him, and he is a stranger wherever he goes, needing to hide to protect himself. Ixion is said to manifest in certain individuals he considers deserving, lending them his knowledge and strength. He longs to look upon the Heart again, believing its light will restore his vision and confer true godhood. Ixion takes on many forms, sometimes wandering Vala as a mad, old beggar. He is always blind, yet still seems to find his way. Outcasts and pariahs are drawn to him, and he is said to offer the strength needed to seize the power denied to the weak and forgotten. Yet Ixion himself remains unable to claim the divinity he believes was denied to him. He is a quiet god, a voice in the dark, a subtle urge, unraveling the designs of the arrogant and mighty, always searching for more. He has no true servitors, but he does send out his eyes to observe and guide those he considers worthy.
