Viris

== Name ==
Viris.
== Primordial or Conceptual ==
Conceptual, and a rather new one at that.
== Domain ==
Knowledge, though not the concept of it in general. Rather, Viris despises the burden that knowing something brings, and as such his domain stands in blatant opposition of it. This is the reason he moves as he does, absorbing memories and erasing transcripts, for their retention is anathema.
== Portfolio ==
Forgetting. While Viris domain is knowledge, he is not like other gods of that caliber. Rather his whole existence centers around the forgetting of it. The inevitable removal of knowledge and wisdom, along with the burden it carries. As such, Viris is capable of taking the memories of others into himself, though not the memories of other gods oddly enough. A terrible thing for some, but a blessed absolution to others. Viris is also capable of erasing information from objects as well, specifically writings and other physical inscriptions, though he must be within a specific distance of said object to do so. Furthermore, the inscribed object must be of mortal make or his powers simply will not work.
== Realm ==
Lethe. A wasted grey expanse, seemingly infinite in scope, whose cracked and barren ground is void of any and all debris one would normally expect to litter such a devastated place. There is no wind in Lethe either, nor sound of bird or laughter of child. Its skies are dark, yet peaceful, and the sun-if it does exist-does not shine. Lethe is oddly neutral in terms of climate as well, as though the very memory of hot and cold, wet and dry, has simply ceased to exist. Entering Lethe, for a mortal anyway, is pretty much impossible due to the nature of the place and its god, as all creatures from Galbar who tread here end up forgetting the exact way back, assuming they've not forgotten their lives entirely that is. For gods, however, they may find their way here through a door in the mist, one which connects Viris realm with that of Antiquity so that he may wander as he pleases.
== Persona ==
Although his domain is that of forgetting, Viris views himself as anything but malicious, seeing it as his sacred duty to remove knowledge from those who have become overburdened with it. As such he is a very subdued being, one who watches those in the mortal world go about their finite lives with a withdrawn yet serene gaze. For though he cannot reach them directly, yet, he can still influence them from afar through the use of avatars among other means. Thus he sits, biding his time as he gradually nudges those overburdened few towards his own forgetful ends, patiently awaiting the day the gods walk Galbar once again so that he may finally remove the curse of knowledge from it once and for all.
== Base Form ==
Viris base form is that of an unseen figure flanked by a thin veil of mist, whose true form is hidden beneath the billowing folds of a dark hooded robe, tattered and worn from centuries of use.
== Domain Form ==
Viris domain specific form is even more disparate than his base one, as the god is no longer bound to one particular location or shape, becoming the thick fog pervading the realm of Lethe itself.
== Avatar ==
Ibel, Reliever of Burdens. A tall, lanky man, with unremarkable features and an utterly forgettable face; Ibel wanders the world in modest garb, using a fraction of the divinity given unto him to better accomplish his lord's will, relieving those he finds of their burdens with naught but a touch... if they so desire. Taking their memories into himself, Ibel will harbor their pain and loss until the time of his god's return.
