Character History:



Trivia:

  • Pestis was one of those who endured a Triat Mastery Quest. For the Wyrm, her trial involved exploration and solving a particularly obscure riddle to find a specific creature: in the end, she discovered it to be a certain golem in The Caverns of N'Kai. She was also required to dual class, which for a level 30 in 2x, was crippling, as a task for the Weaver. For the Wyld, she was bid to slay three mortals of equivalent or greater level than herself.
  • When Talmud was given a Triat Lore Quest, he was instructed to seek out Pestis to learn of the differences between the Ebon Hand viewpoint and that of the Chosen of Fate, and also learn of her Triat Mastery Quest.
  • Pestis is referenced by Thaygar in His instruction Of The Triat.
  • Pestis was regularly showcased in the title of one of those she killed: Hum [ Th: 5 Sh:14 Wa:15 ] Parius wants to know why, pestis? Hum [ Th: 5 Sh:14 Wa:15 ] Parius thinks pestis shall die n stuff.

Pestis, Triat Master, was one of the legends of 2x [{Ebon Hand]]. I interacted with her as a wee little mortal mage, and she gave me encouragement to pursue my dream of immortality. She also provided some very piquant moments of RP years later, when I was trying to decide whether or not to retire (circa 2000). Her words of wisdom that day helped me a great deal.


Personal Timeline:

11/18/1995: Pestis hits level 12 seconds before Typhon hits level 30. She gains a train.
09/25/2000: Pestis visits the realm and has a long talk with Cordir who is very seriously considering/planning Retirement. Cordir charges Pestis with a Geas: Cordir says, 'Keep the Triat faith alive. Even if it is only in your one soul that it survives… Keep it alive.’.
