Sage Rai

Race: Cryptkeeper (formerly a human)

Age: 500+ years

Location: Kalnor (fortress underneath Xranta)

Over 500 years ago, Sage Rai served as the court sage to Caen and Darius Reinholm, two brothers who were pure Radicals and who formed the nobility that would lay the foundation for Xranta. Sage Rai served the brothers and the rest of the Reinholm family loyally well into old age: he tutored their children, helped design Kalnor (the fortress of Trials), and handled a number of day-to-day affairs. But as he approached the end of his life, he discovered that Caen, Darius, and their offspring were infected by some kind of curse; and soon after Caen and Darius left Xranta in the hands of their offspring and journeyed into the fallen empires, Sage Rai faked his own death and transformed himself into a cryptkeeper so that he could keep an eye on Reinholm's descendants and see what the curse would bring about.

In his present form as a cryptkeeper, Sage Rai oversees the descendants of the Reinholm family by using an arcane chair that allows him to observe and experience past and present lives of the descendants. His mind is nearly broken from so much knowledge, yet he retains many of his mannerisms and a few critical parts of his identity.
