[/List] [U]Domain/s[/U] [List] [*] Chaos, Knowledge, Magic, Protection [/List] [U]Personality/Alignment[/U] [List] [*] Eistibus follows his whims. It is an individualist first and last. The Celestial of Divination values his own liberty but does not strive to protect others’ freedom. Eistibus avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges traditions. It does not intentionally disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. To do so, the Celestial of Divination would have to be motivated either by good (and a desire to liberate others) or evil (and a desire to make those who think different from itself suffer). Eistibus may be unpredictable but its behavior is not totally random. Eistibus is not as likely to intervene in an argument between Sandalphon and Azrael than to go around it. It wanders the realm in quiet contemplating living by its own wits.Eistibus is one of the best deities to follow because it represents true freedom from both society’s restrictions and a do-gooder’s zeal. Eistibus often avoids direct interaction with his follows. For interference with the real world could very well lead to a dangerous precedent of intervention. The deity would most easily be described as chaotic neutral but it’s followers are not specifically aligned one way or another. The Celestial of Divination is fully aware of what is going to happen before it happens on the material plane. This is the curse or blessing of Eistibus’ capabilities. Its response to these acts are both calculated and well thought. Eistibus fails to see the purpose in exploiting the material plane as little does the material plane have to offer to a deity that spends its days looking deep into the future on an almost constant basis. The Celestial of Divination sees the material plane as merely something to deal with in order to maintain some form of a meaningful existence. Parishioners who slight and disobey its rule are often punished by being given glances into their future, or perhaps an altered future with Eistibus’ curse or blessing. Further, those who are found lost in Eistibus’ hell are trapped in a flow of time to watch their own existence from beginning to end time and time again with no possibility to alter the events. [/List] [U]Relations[/U] [List] [*]Eistibus is subservient to the Demiurge Remph and sibling to both Phanuel and Turiel. It is this small familial group that it calls home within the realm. Within the familial group Eistibus is civil, interacting only when it is necessary. This is because the Celestial is often lost in its own pursuits through the future with little to no concern for the actions of the other deities. Of course, because Eistibus can see how the other Celestials will act before they can even consider changing their mind Eistibus is hated by those celestials that are equal to it. Because Eistibus is often lost in its own pursuit of future sight, little time does it have to act juxtaposed to other celestials or rebel against the more powerful Demiurges. Where others exploit Ein Sof as a battlefield to struggle for power with their mortal puppets, Eistibus sees all possible outcomes and subsequently has little direct interaction with the conflicts of the remaining pantheon. [/List] [U]Commandments/Laws[/U] [List] [*] Eistibus does not have any explicit commandments or laws. [/List] [U]Parishioners/Common Practices[/U] [List] [*] There are no categories of race, occupations, classes, or inhabitants on Ein Sof that are more likely to be followers of Eistibus, Celestial of Divination than any other deity. Often times, followers of the Demiurge of Time or other deities in the same familial group call upon Eistibus in addition to their chosen patron deity. As powerful as the gifts that Eistibus may bestow upon parishioners, Eistibus’ typically has little concern for those who pray to it and often times ignore their call. Parishioners often pay homage to Eistibus by lighting incense that place the user into a trance, a trance that is claimed to show them the future. They often find Eistibus’ interference when the parishioner after learning the future alters the path of time thusly interfering with the patron Demiurge’s domain. [/List]
