Oen

Oen (OH-ee-en) is a Deity, part of the Circle of Twelve.
==The God of Knowledge==
Oen, who is fueled by mortals' wills to learn, oversees curiosity, secrets, and sight. When mysteries reveal themselves, it is said to be Oen's work. He gathers all of the knowledge shared by mortals in his great library and consumes everything from sunrise to sundown. His symbol is of an open book radiating the light of knowledge, which reminds his worshippers that information is their most powerful weapon. His altars and temples are in libraries, schools, archives, and athenaeums. The Keepers who practice the teachings of Oen specialize in spreading knowledge, researching, and watching over his archives.
Oen understands only a fool believes they know everything and because of this, each night he blesses himself with ignorance before he sleeps. Oen forgets everything he learned the day before, spending the next day consuming all of the knowledge again. Those who follow Oen believe that for every locked door there is a key. Gifting his talents to mortals in the form of visions, Oen is the favored god of oracles. As the God of Knowledge, his followers often are scribes, keepers, and loremasters.
===Depiction===
Oen is depicted as a white-bodied owl with brown wings. His two main eyes are in their rightful places, but he also has 30 eyes around his crown, and twelve arms under his wings. He stands taller than the tallest trees, towering over and intimidating those whose paths he crosses.
===Commandments of Oen===
*Do not twist knowledge to wield power that is not yours to wield.
*Uncover all that is unseen, but do not corrupt it.
*Destroy the sources of all lies that are told.
