Eres, known as The Seeker is a quasi-deity of trickery, love, and beauty worshiped across the realms. Many are aware of the deity and his forms but not of the true nature of their existence.
 

Appearance and Symbols

Unlike many deities who are trapped beyond the Tynau, The Seeker is able to visit his followers in person, choosing the form that he takes, always with some connection to the blue coloration of his form. The most common form that he takes is that of a ethereal blue cloak that seems to float through the wind.   The Seeker has often been described as calm and collected, but speaking in constant riddles. Their voice is described as ethereal and focused. Those who have been considered as clerics under The Seeker have found that he can be somewhat neurotic and anxious, but immediately snap to charming and overwhelming.   While there is considered to be one primary symbol for The Seeker, that of a blue eye framed by an octagon, there have been several different variants created by different followings of him.

History

Very few people know the true origin of The Seeker, but those who know are aware that Eres is a spirit from Dream. Eres was summoned into existence from on the mortal plane, however why Eres didn't fade into Dream was unknown. All that is known is that Eres spoke to a very limited number of people who started to believe that Eres was a strange creature known as The Seeker, that was beautiful and could guide them into delivering tricks and love onto the people of the realm.

Known Worshippers

There are very few known worshippers of The Seeker, however there is a small and consistent collection that have garnered enough belief in The Seeker to provide an unknown amount of power in the mortal realm for the dream spirit.
Name Pronouns Description
Lavrix Bourne He/Him Air Elementra Senator of the H'lass Union. Lavrix met The Seeker at a young age when his mother and father died. Eres took pity on the child who had a mournful love of his parents. While he wasn't granted a mass of power, Larix was bestowed with a powerful understanding of optimism and hope, that he has since used for the betterment of all people.
Har Rovlyne She/Her Light Elf Onyx of the Grand Archive of the Obsidian Forge. Har is currently stationed in and around the Ankh'eal Archive as an investigator into relics of The Shatter. She became entangled with The Seeker in finding one of these articles. Eres recognised her love of knowledge and understanding, granting her an ability to learn more about different artifacts that she touches.
Vary Wallstone She/They Fiendling Sorcerer from QIl'Sora City. Vary has worked for several years on ships as a sailor before learning more of The Seeker in her unexpressed love for a fallen companion. She was granted a small amount of power to alter her innate magics to pull and shift the winds to guide fellow sailors home.

I like the idea that he speaks in constant riddles. Makes sense if he's from Dream.

When you twist words like a stream of thoughts, you find you engage the mind. If you pull on all the threads, you find true nature to unwind!   (Just an example of how he speaks, I love being tricky)
