The Founder

Pronouns: They/Them

Race: Changeling

Name: Keniah Shandry (Ken-eye-uh Sh-an-dree)

Presentation: The Founder typically chose a form that was feminine, their most common form having dark grey eyes, sharp elvish features, and light brown skin. Their hair was never consistent, but most statues of them give them black coiled hair that puffs around their head and stops at their shoulders

The Founder was the leader of the party that pioneered expeditions into the Zones, and was the Founder and Owner of the First Homestead prior to their death in 40 PYZ.

Much is not known about the Founder, especially before Year Zero, given that they lived in the most chaotic time in Apolis's known history. What is known about them however is their attitude and their legacy.

They were the leading figure of the recovery of the Humanoid races of Apolis after the disaster of Year Zero, and today are worshipped by many due to the ideas they represented. Adaptability in the face of unyielding and unknowable danger and horrors was what they represented over all, and along with their kindness it garnered a great amount of respect from the surviving peoples of Apolis.
