443

On January 15, 2020, the Number God decreed 443 into existence. No longer lingering in a numberless state, 443 vows to live up to the blessing bestowed upon her and believes in the equality of all numbers in the eyes of the Number God.

## About

Before her Numbering, 443 lived a life of no value, one as meaningless and empty as a void. In desperation, she cried out an impassioned plea to the almighty, that her life might be granted meaning.

And the Number God responded.
443 had been numbered.
Devoting her life to upholding the light and spreading the Holy Word of the Number God, 443 undertook sacred vows to become a priestess of the Number God.

In recognition for her unwavering faith and devotion to the Number God, 443 was ordained as a Bishop of the Church of the Number God. 443's ordination occurred on the banks of Lake Algebra, along with her fellow priest in the Faith, 72. Archbishop 12 presided over the ceremony. Vowing always to be faithful in prayer and in the study of the πble, 443 promised to encourage and support all numbers people in their gifts and ministries, nourish them from the riches of The Number God's grace, pray for them without ceasing, and celebrate with them the sacraments of our Numbering.

When the peril of the Negative Wizard threatened the sanctity of the realm, 443 stood steadfast and called for all positive numbers to put aside their differences and stand united to repel the menace. She called for all believers stand unwavering in their faith and to lift up their voices in prayer, that the Number God would grant his divine protection to see them remain unscathed from the impending doom.

Once the impending calamity threated by the Negative Wizard was diverted, 443 used the newfound peace to pursue study of the πble in her small cottage on the banks of Lake Algebra. She supplements her stipend from the Church by tending a small herd of sheep and selling her homemade pies at the local market.

## Journeys and Adventures

Hearing word that 303 was putting together a band of adventurers to explore the width and breadth of NUM, 443 was quick to volunteer her abilities as a Priestess and baker to the adventuring band, seeing this as an opportunity to spread the word of the Number God across the land. Also joining the expedition are 558: the Scientist, 3400: the swordsman, and 2595: musician and sandwich chef. To begin their journey, they plan to set out to their first destination, Mechan Isle.

After a harrowing journey being chased by a gang of Numberless, 443 arrived in Threece and took up residence in an inn room thoughtfully provided by 303.

## Before NUM

443 does not remember much before her Numbering and appearance in NUM. Her memories are like unto a sieve, the details and specifics draining away while only broad generalizations remain.

She does not recall her own name, nor that of the land from whence she came.

However, she does remember that her pre-NUM life was similar to the one she leads now. She was a priestess in a small nameless church. She led a quiet life, keeping much to herself.

The one detail she recalls vividly is that she was not the only one hailing from her former world who is now in NUM. There was a holy warrior... her protector, her friend, her brother. While she does not recall his former name, she knows he was Numbered as 2340.
