X'fere the Wise

X'fere is the second **Celestial** to not be created by the will of the Celestials, but rather the will of the Eprean people themselves, thus making them a lesser Celestial. Much like **Tozra**, X'fere also struggles with a hot-headed personality, but has a much better hold on it than their rival counterpart.

They were created during the **Eprean Civil War** of Ancient 2,012, on the side of the Epreans who believed knowledge and new inventions were superior to strength.

## History

Being quick to correct and snarky in attitude, X'fere does not get along well with the other **Celestials**. They believe that they knows the answers to anything, and has even challenged **Ter'ot's** position of power once during a feast. While the other Celestials do admire and appreciate all that X'fere has to bring to the table, they often have a rocky relationship with them.

X'fere wholeheartedly believes that they would be a better ruler of the Celestials, due to their vast knowledge of how each Celestial works and what they do. Due to his knowledge in these manners, he is often the Celestial that tacticians look toward, as well as being one himself.

Many Epreans who have had either the misfortune or fortune of meeting with the Celestial of Knowledge tend to come out of it feeling displeased and angry, due to the attitude of them, or they wholeheartedly agree with the words that the Celestial has to say. X'fere tends to treat those with opposing opinions to theirs like they're disposable, and is not afraid to speak their mind. If they do not like an Eprean or another Celestial, they will say it to their faces. Some Celestials, such as **Juena**, **Celena**, **Kurro**, or **Ania**, actually respect the honesty of the owl, seeking out their council whenever they can as a result.

### Today

X'fere tends to keep themself tucked away, often being seen within libraries writing books or reviewing the texts within them with a trashcan beside them, throwing out texts that are inaccurate.

They believe in history being kept pristine with every detail, even if it paints them in a bad light. Epreans who may approach the **Celestial** within a library unknowingly will soon find out that X'fere sports a chatty soul, often getting sucked into conversations that last hours.

If an Eprean wishes to get closer to X'fere and speak to them as a Celestial, they may make their way to their shrine with a bowl of chopped pomegranate. Be prepared to immediately receive a pop quiz on the history of Eprea once the Celestial has arrived, for they will only speak to you and hear you out if you recieve a perfect score.

Once the commune is finished and the Celestial has said all he has to say, he will bless those he is impressed with with knowledge. Epreans with this blessing tend to learn and memorize things in a superhuman way, often making their ways up the ranks of top tier scholars and tacticians.

## Physical Appearance

X'fere's true form is that of a large snowy owl, and is the form that they are the most often seen in. Quills, books, and scrolls are often floating around their form, seeming to always be magically writing any new information that the **Celestial** learns.

When X'fere does rarely take on their humanoid form, they will take on the appearance of an androgynous **Manna** donned in heavy robes and carrying scrolls. This form is much more natural in appearance, and they only typically use it when they want to blend in and learn information without being recognized.
