Tri

Tri is the patron goddess of the Tria Clan (named after her) who blessed their founder with the Tria Power. She is regarded by the people of the Tria Clan as being virtuous and the only deity worthy of worship, though most other groups view her as corrupt and evil instead.
== Appearance ==
Being a deity, Tri doesn't have a true corporeal form. She is never seen directly in Forgotten Villainy, but she is depicted in art as humanoid with an inverted triangle for a head, and either wearing purple robes or with a plain, purple, undetailed body. Also, she sometimes apparently shows herself as a floating purple triangle.
== Personality ==
Not much is known about Tri's personality. She is viewed differently by different people. The Tria Clan thinks of her as loving and kind, since she took pity on them by blessing their founder E'ling with the power to protect them. The Circa Clan sees Tri as the rival and opposing force to their patron goddess, Circ. Meanwhile, the people of other lands view both goddesses as corrupt, eccentric, and even evil for giving out power. 
Tri appreciated E'ling's sharp combat skills and decisive leadership, possibly because they were traits similar to Tri's.
== Myth ==
Tri is a primordial being, existing since the beginning of the world. She exists alongside an unknown number other deities. This includes Circ, the patron goddess of the Circa Clan. The exact nature of Tri and Circ's relationship is unknown; some claim they are sisters, others may say they're friends, enemies, lovers, or uncaring of each other. 
After viewing how the land of Shingurun struggled with invasion and pillaging, Tri chose a champion from the mortals: E'ling, who caught Tri's eye with her combat and leadership abilities. Tri bestowed a blessing upon E'ling, which gave E'ling increased physical ability and the power to manipulate magical purple triangles. E'ling took a new last name - San, meaning three - in honor of Tri. As E'ling spread her influence, more people began to worship Tri. They became the Tria Clan. 
== Abilities ==
Tri is a goddess, and has extensive power, though not many of them are described.
* Blessing: Tri can bless mortals, giving them abilities such as controlling magical force fields and increased strength. She did this directly to E'ling, and indirectly to E'ling's descendants.
* Immortality: Tri is an immortal being.
== Symbols ==
The Tria Clan shares most of Tri's symbols.
* Triangles
* Purple
* Silver
* The stars
** In the world of Forgotten Villainy, stars are perceived as being triangle-shaped and purple, rather than pentagram-shaped and yellow as they are in the real world. Since stars truly appear as tiny dots of light, what shape and color we perceive them is somewhat arbitrary, hence why the world of Forgotten Villainy has come to view them in such a way.
* Irises
** Iris flowers are purple, Tri's representative color. In addition, they have three petals (as well as three petal-like sepals), the number of sides on a triangle.
* The number 3
== Trivia ==
* The Tria Clan and Tria Power are named after Tri.
* Tri's relationship with Circ is disputed; depending on the myth, they are sisters, friends, enemies, lovers, have a changing relationship, or are independent of each other.
* Tri is generally referred to as female, though her actual gender could be somewhat arbitrary, since she doesn't have a true physical form.
