Triad

Triad (a.k.a. The Sacred Rooster)

Triad by Tyler Berthoff

There are so many bridges and so many paths that one can easily find themselves lost and confused within the endless nexus that comprises Oculus's ever-changing network. Though countless beings venture threw Oculus daily, countless more have followed Messengers and their sirens call to unknown destinations threw the veils of endless dreams, never to be seen or heard from again. One thought can lead to another, forming a causality of events that can ultimately bring about one's own demise if caution and proper guidance are not heeded here. Many think that they know best as they tread threw Oculus, yet so many have disappeared in this place while following those very paths that they so firmly believed in. What should be made of this knowledge as one ventures across their own bridges, seeking what they think will bring them everlasting fulfillment? Most ignore the warning signs and dangers that loom all around them, like sheep without a shepherd they venture into the wilderness only to be devoured by the unseen predators that lurk within the voids of space and time. Though Oculus can be a perilous place, there is a path that is said to be safer than any other bridge in Oculus. This single path, unlike the infinite forms that other Messengers take strangely always appears to look the same to every being that is called to it. A simple, golden road is laid in front of all who are called to this peculiar bridge of everlasting light. When the eyes of a called being are open to the path before them, their ears are then filled with bizarre words of astounding love and grace. As the words unravel and remake the heart of the being that hears them its feet are then moved, step by step to an unknowable paradise of unparalleled beauty. The name of this unique path is known by countless names and phrases across the expanse of Oculus. One name, in particular, stands out in the wave I am in, though for you it may be completely different. A single name is uttered in the dark of night, "Triad" the bridge of light extends its boundless reach unknowable distances, driving aways countless Messengers into the voids of want and mare. Does Triad call to you, dear traveler of dreams? Do you see its light covering the dark path that at this very moment you stand upon? For one cannot find Triad, rather in time Triad will find you. Though fear takes many forms, there is only one form of true love, only one path that shines despite the darkness that surrounds it. Love will free you from the path of fear you have taken, as it has freed so many others threw out the countless waves of eternity.

Divine Domains

Though Triad reaches out into countless realms and universes, its home is not based in any of them. Rather Triads home dwells in an Eden that is unknown to the countless waves that span the oceans of want. Some would call it Heaven, others Paradise, though it's true name is only known to Triad himself. It is said to be a realm of everlasting peace, free from all fear, pain, tears, and want. A land was given freely to all that are brought to faith in the path of true righteousness. Only The Rooster can create this faith in the hearts of the enslaved, less they wander in the darkness of their own souls for all eternity, never knowing the endless bounty of Triads compassionate heart.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

A golden road, boundless and engraved with the very words of everlasting life. A great bridge supports this most holy of paths, leading all who venture upon it to glory and life everlasting. Along the path, a rooster, clad in primordial rays of purity protects all the travelers that venture on the paths of Triad. Three heads adorn the rooster's holy form, ever watchful of the false Messengers that tempt vulnerable travelers with words dressed as the sweetest honey, masking the bitter gal of every lie uttered in the dreamscape of Oculus.

Body Features

The dreamscape of Oculus is a strange dimension indeed, for the land itself and the beings within it are often one and the same. Countless forms rising and falling as desires ebb and flow throughout the dark tendrils of Oculus and the many realms that Oculus binds itself too. Thus the form of Triad is both a golden bridge of love and hope and a sacred, three-headed rooster all in one. Though countless forms are possible as perceptions of the same truth can vary, this wave sees a rooster flying over Triads mighty bridge, never letting the sacred path out of its sight for even a moment.

Mental characteristics

Morality & Philosophy

The Messengers and bridges that penetrate into the realms and minds of countless beings are truly boundless, holding power and sway over countless realities without many of them even being aware of Oculus's presence. Despite the sheer volume of desires and paths that begin and end in Oculus, they all share a common foundation that is unknown to all but a few. For at the heart of every desire that forms within the Eternus of Want is completely selfish. Furthermore, every selfish inclination and thought no matter how virtuous or selfless it may appear to be is entirely rooted in the rotten soil called fear. Under every bridge, fear serves as their abutments and supports. Within the words of every messenger lie the sinister phrases of terror and strife. Beneath countless souls sits the crumbling roads of despair. All are afraid and without love in their hearts, for there are only two types of supports for every bridge, no matter the size or variety. Fear comprises most paths and dreams, yet one path stands out in defiance to all the rest. Triad shines forever in the light of love and peace, unbounded from the rotting decay of fear and want. As one travels Triads sacred roads, fear gradually melts away, leaving a new heart filled with the joys and pleasures of true love. Oh, how the Rooster calls into the abyss of night, inviting all to rise from their slumber into the dawn of a new age of peace and tranquility.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Triad's only desire is that all beings within and outside Oculus may be set free from the lies and deceptions of endless want and fear. A selfless heart sends out rays of warmth and comfort to all those lost in the cold blizzards of lost dreams and futile paths. Though the lost dreamers are stained with evil and fear, Triads divine grace washes away every ounce of darkness from every traveler that ventures on The Roosters path. At great cost to itself, the path of Triad remains strong and firm, never to be moved or shaken by the powers of fear again. Such is The Roosters love for all of you, that he may save you from yourself and the prison that you blindly think is your true home. A saddened heart has compassion for your suffering and only wishes to liberate you from your anguish at great cost to itself. Do you see the Roosters scars, the two holes left in its right ankle? A great darkness was vanquished so that freedom could be won for all beings trapped in selfish fear. You are free to love, though many Messengers would say otherwise.

Likes & Dislikes

Triad is firmly aware of the many schemes and temptations that Messengers conduct and form against the light of Triads grace. In particular, a being simply known as Accuser stands as a direct front to the mission of salvation that Triad is carrying out in Oculus. Though many see Accuser as a wise and benevolent friend, the harsh truth of Accuser's goals and schemes is far from any kind of loving relationship. On the surface, Accuser seems to simply be offering different choices to other beings, including those that now walk The Sacred Roosters path. Underneath a veil of lies and deception that extends to borders, unknown sits a being of unrivaled malice and evil intent. The Sacred Rooster is well aware of Accuser's dreadful schemes, for Accuser lives up to his name as he slanders countless names and cast hateful criticism on all beings in Oculus and many other realms of existence. Only to Triad does The Fallen utter its accusations of every blight and evil committed across the plains of want and desire, for The Fallen knows that Triad demands justice for all the evil done within the many deceptions that guise themselves as paths of freedom and choice. Yet, despite Accuser's murderous schemes, Triad has already paid the penalty for the evil done outside of its holy road. Thus all the accusations of The Fallen are nullified in a cleaning light of love and peace. Oh how Triad loves justice, and in time he will show that love to Accuser, for all evil, is detestable to Triad's holy being. Yet one must not forget that Triad also loves mercy, and wishes to extend that mercy to all that have been seduced by Accusers lies and schemes.

Social

Contacts & Relations

"Many Messengers left my love to follow The Accusers schemes, forsaking themselves as they deceive the minds of so many beings. Still, many more Messengers remained with me, trusting in the truth of my love that is given freely to all beings. The Messengers of light assist me in the calling of all beings to the one true path of heavenly love and forgiveness. May their strength never fail as they carry out their divine task."

Family Ties

"I remember when he fell, the star I made with my own voice. I remember his beauty, so perfect and pure being corrupted from within by pride and selfishness. How his heart became dark, oh gracious star of the morning light! How far he fell from the perfection of Paradise into the abyss of fire and despair. It was my grace that forged him, and my justice that unmade him. Though he may rage, The Fallen will never cast its foul light again. My sacrifice will ensure that all who fell to The Fallen's lies are redeemed and purified in my undying light. Never again will they hunger, never again will they thirst." Such is the tale of Triad and The Fallen. May all know the truth as The Roasters light glows brighter and brighter."

Speech

Triad has a voice that flows like the living waters of life itself. A gentle tone, yet firm in its purpose and poise. All who hear him are left humbled by the grace that flows from Triads mouths.
