Zabriel
Epitaphs: The Watcher, Lightbearer
A former archivist of the knowledge god Typharia, Zabriel was one of those who abandoned the ideals of their god, to pursue her own agenda. Whereas Typharia was neutrally-aligned and sought knowledge for the sake of knowledge, Zabriel sought to weaponize knowledge and truth. She is the patron of scholars, truth-seekers, counterspies, and those who seek to bring down conspiracies and oppressive regimes. Those who follow her often gain flashes of inspiration that lead them to discover secrets.Zabriel appears as a robed figure whose face glows so brightly her features cannot be seen. She always carries a book that holds the names of every being in existence.

Zabriel abandoned his mistress’s neutral stance and instead sought to bring an end to the lies that support tyrants and oppressors. He is loved by scholars and truth seekers, and he is opposed directly by Venin, the Great Deceiver.

When Zabriel initially broke with her mistress's neutrality, her enemies fell with terrifying efficiency. Her followers believe in her strength and ideals zealously because of this. They have even taken to telling others that "Zabriel is always watching" to keep the good people on the straight and narrow. This has created some tension in places. The fear of being exposed can make any man with a secret desperate... and what is a man... but a miserable pile of secrets...
