Forgotten Byblos

Attributes: 20 points to spread between base stats. Resolution is stat + d10.
Might: 2
Skill: 2
Intellect: 10
Integrity: 6
Miraculous Power: Memory
A wizard and scholar, Byblos took knowledge to the logical heights, expressing the soul in art and writing. Through this knowledge, he can affect the minds of others, viewing their recollections of their life, altering them, or stealing them entirely. He can recreate designs lost to time, call up ancient secrets he's glimpsed in the patterns of the world, and discern the presence of thought were none appears.
Mythic Artefacts
Codex Immateria - a large tome containing the souls of great beings, inscribed on paper, giving great insight into magic and the nature of the soul. Can be used to summon a wraith-like shadow to defend its master.
Demon Ring - a ring with an ornate symbol on it, containing the power of demons captured and 'recorded' by Forgotten Byblos. Fires a bolt of madness that warps and distorts reality with chaotic power, wounding targets and twisting objects.
Background
Principles: Preserve the deeds and lives of all that lived or existed, without embellishment or omission. Force knowledge into the open and expose secrets when it is safe to do so, create monuments to the mind and souls of others.
Legends: Resurrected the ancient Empire of Dreams after a thousand years, restoring them as undead as they were at their height. Destroyed the Heroes of Whitemountain when they attempted to recover and destroy the Quartz Tablet, which contained a spell designed to awaken the ocean in rage against anyone. Stole the memory of the Goddess Arcana as punishment for denying the secrets of Lunar magic to humans.
Regrets: Keeping the memories of the Goddess, rather than giving them to the people. Slaying so many heroes who attempted to steal knowledge from me, as I held it in trust. Being unable to restore more civilizations (and later, the world itself) from dust.
Memories: The deeds, thoughts, and very souls of many of the greatest minds. The great cities of the Empire of Dreams, and the sun across the Towering Arcus. Every day of wars, every year the seas were enraged my the great Tablet's magic, and the last words of the demigod Ortha. The great libraries I build, that now lie unseen or in dust.
