The Traveler (Icon)
The Traveler is often a man with his eyes on the horizon, holding a walking stick, a compass or maybe an astrograph.
For free traders, caravaneers, explorers or colonists, the Traveler stands for protection. A Firstcome variation of the Traveler is the Star Singer, who is a spreader of wisdom and who anchors reality with song and story. Yet another aspect is the Demiurge worshipped on Menkar, believed to be the original portal creator. In this origin story, the Portal Builders never existed, but instead it was the Icons themselves who wove the network of gates between the Horizons.
The malicious side of the Traveler is the Spider, who controls the web of star ways and traps reckless ship crews in the darkness between the portals.
