A female member of the bioforms called the '''Eldyr''', or “First” in their tongue. Eld for short. Very tall, immensely strong, steeped in traditions both warrior and mystical along with an inimitable pride that colors every action they do. Said to carry the blood of the mythological dragons! Kora herself stands at 7’8”, weighs just over 270 pounds, and is a complete sucker for pretty things. She's soft, sweet, and capable of using her claws to splatter your skull like an overripe melon if you incur her wrath. The magic luminescent tattoos on her body are not only sacred runes of protection stemming from the time of the demiurges, but elemental conduits granting access to various channels of raw energy, along with indicators of renown. | A female member of the bioforms called the '''Eldyr''', or “First” in their tongue.

The departure of the demiurges left a substantial power vacuum that is still being filled. Demiurge artifacts are powerful and useful, so the people and organizations looking to establish their own cities/kingdoms/churches/universities/power bases are in direct competition with the Seekers for the artifacts. Some factions would even work to pervert these relics to bring back the demiurges themselves.

The Eldyr consider themselves the first race of true beings to exist since the time of the demiurges, and as a result carry that racial pride into everything they do or accomplish. Many are perfectionists, satisfied with their accomplishments and pursuits only at their absolute pinnacle - whether that be cooking, mysticism, or even architecture is irrelevant. Most eldyr stand at around seven feet tall, with males slightly taller and heavier. Both genders are equally adept at both warrior trials and mystic arts, as the eldyr see no point in enforced roles amongst their kind. You are either great, or you are not. Ritual tattooing is a central part of their elaborate ceremonies beneath great statues and temples dedicated to their mythical progenitors, with the markings denoting both renown and the life story of the one bearing them. The eldyr are very Forceful in their ways - they will see their wills done, and woe betide those who try to stop them. To enter one of the nature-incorporating cities of the eldyr is to constantly feel small and weak beneath their glorious power, a sense of complete insignificance only exacerbated by the constant rigorous demand to prove oneself or submit.

The beleaguered organization has been stymied by not only outside influences — the fall of many of its hereos, incursions by warlords, tyrants and usurpers who destroy or grasp antiquities from Seeker Temples for their own evil uses — but also from within. Spies from despotic realms undermine their efforts. The Seekers have dwindled to a miserable fraction of its once esteemed membership. The group now dances on the margin of oblivion. Furthermore, even the Seekers themselves sabotage one another’s efforts arising from a dissonance between a growing number of doctrines.

The '''oracle''' has given a rare public prognostication for those gathered among the broken streets at the foot of the '''Seer’s Cliffs''' in '''Khem-Akka, the City of Soothsayers'''. This town exists atop an ancient ruin and is known as the habitation of the secretive but disorganized '''Seekers'''. Among the oracle’s cryptic rantings was mention of the ''“Last word of Orseez upon the sunken throne under the shadow of Myrdon’s Temple.”'' | The '''oracle''' has given a rare public prognostication for those gathered among the broken streets at the foot of the '''Seer’s Cliffs''' in '''Khem-Akka, the City of Soothsayers'''.
