Purtote Taitolo Character in Linebound | World Anvil

Purtote Taitolo

Architect of the principles of Darapur.

This paper is a milestone not only in this land of rivers but on Breharan as it guarantees equal rights to all people of this city. We must always remember that things change and that people change and that the attitudes of people will not match some ink on a piece of paper. It is up to all of us to make sure the future is bright for everyone, regardless of who they may be.
— Taitolo at the signing of the Darapur Act

The Hero of Words

Not much is known about Purtote before their involvement in the founding of Darapur - specifically in the writing of the Darapur Act - except that they were born a Drifter. Which is likely the source of their belief in equality for all, a sentiment not shared by all of their contemporaries - such as Ameteii Burim who was part of the founding members of Darapur until shamed from the group by Purtote.   They are remembered by the people of Zinato as the hero of words because they wrote most of the equality text of the Darapur Act and sent a famous letter that sent a proponent of economic inequality fleeing the region.

Appearance

Tall for an aven and also with lightly coloured feathers, Purtote always stood out from a crowd. They prefered to wear a long cloak over simple clothes and wore a headwrap.

The River Child

Everyone born in Zinato is a river child but few have the name Purtote, literally meaning river (pur) child (tote).   The name Purtote remains a popular name for children in Zinato due to the good reputation that Purtote Taitolo has long after their passing.
