Weaver Kīw Zuk, Master of Divination (a.k.a. Far-Seer)
Kīw Zuk is a minargish divination wizard. His family has
Mental characteristics
Kīw has become the pre-eminent Diviner in Khit. He also is the pre-eminent student of Evocation, though that is a secondary focus for him.
Kīw is interested in knowledge, especially secret knowledge. There is much he might sacrifice for the right secret.
Like many wielders of magic, Kīw has a more nuanced view of good and bad. He isn't evil, and he won't engage in evil acts, but he might engage in the morally gray, if the necessity arose in the practice of his magic.
Personality Characteristics
Kīw is motivated by the uncovering of hidden knowledge. That principle is his lodestar.
He likes strong, dwarvish ale, which marks him as a bit eccentric in Khit. He also enjoys blueberry pies. He can't abide the smell of lavender or the texture of parchment. Because of the last, he inscribes his spellbook on vellum.
Kīw does not just enjoy uncovering secret knowledge; he seeks to share it. He has been advocated at the Tower of Knowledge and Magic for a small school devoted to instruction in the magical arts. So far, he doesn't have quite enough support for his idea, but he gains supporters every year.
The Zuk family is an old family. They have vast inherited wealth, started by their legendary ancestor, Kantū Musā, who adventured extensively during the Dragonwars, including an expedition into the Citadel of Da.
