Diokletian

Diokletian is a Celebrant and healer at the Gardens of Nephele, who still loves Felix's deceased mother, Methony.
== Appearance ==
Appears to be in his early fifties, and has red hair and yellow eyes. Felix wonders if Diokletian is his father, more than once.
== Pre-Canon History ==
Slept with Methony and fell in love with her, despite the fact that she never has relationships. Married and had two daughters.
Was once an acolyte of the Euryganeic Covenant, but was unable to endure pythian casting, and was ostracised until he left voluntarily for the Gardens of Nephele. Became taken with oneiromancy - despite it being discontinued in Troia 139 years prior - and the Khloidanikos. 
== In The Books ==
==== Melusine ====
==== The Virtu ====
Diokletian and Felix talk about Methony, and more of her history is revealed. Diokletian also becomes more obvious about his lusting after Felix, and when they meet in the Khloidanikos, he attempts a seduction that Felix shuts down by saying that Diokletian could very well be his father. Diokletian is upset when Felix leaves for Klepsydra.
==== Corambis ====
Diokletian dreamwalks to Felix to ask for his aid and also offer his assistance in repairing the Khloidanikos, after Felix put Malkar's rubies there and consequently polluted the entire space. He is condescending and Felix avoids him after their initial meetings, going directly to Thamuris in dreams instead.
== Personality ==
Generally kind, though quite stiff and repressed in manner, along with being stubborn and sometimes paternalistic and condescending. It is clear that he thinks himself and his knowledge superior to Felix's, and he is not immediately generous with his wisdom and knowledge.
== Relationships ==
==== Methony ====
Slept with her once and still pines for her.
==== Felix ====
Lusts after him due to his uncanny resemblance to Methony, also assists in Felix's healing from his insanity through Melusine and The Virtu, and is a somewhat reluctant source of information on Troian magic and oneiromancy.
