 Exiled from her fey homeland, Kamalia Timandre travels the treacherous world of Mizahar to learn ancient forbidden magicks—Unity and the True Way. Beautiful, cunning and ambitious, Kamalia is a skilled sorceress and a student of pre-Valterrian lore, devoted to unraveling the secrets of the Lost Disciplines.
Following events in the Game, she was tasked by the human heart of Sahgal Hrinn to battle the God of Puppetry and Manipulation and prevent him from threatening the balance of the world again. She wields the Pathfinder, legacy of the former Court Mage of Alahea and a compass leading to other staves in Sagallius’ possession.
Together with her guardian, Gunto of the Shadowhand, Kamalia is determined in her conquest to thwart the unholy plans of Sagallius and his followers. Yet as she ventures toward her mission and prepares herself for the inevitable battle, enemies pursue her ceaselessly.
And one enemy she must face may offer her the fiercest battle of all: herself—for magic threatens to consume Kamalia as it did the god she seeks to bring down.

Like the blossoms of the Vian, time does not manifest its passing upon the Konti’s visage. Many say that Kamalia is quick to draw eyes to her beauty: elusive as song, fey as twilight, surreal as a passing dream. There is mystique to her smile and power in her eyes and her laughter is music and siren song. Thick lashes frame the violet eyes that regard anyone with intelligence and without fear. Her satin skin shines proudly alabaster, with iridescent scale patterns intertwining down her arms to the back of her hands, and from her thighs down to her ankles. But most arresting is her hair of spun silver that fall in wavy locks below her waist, shimmering about her svelte form like captured moonlight.
A stylized seer’s lily graces the side of her neck, just below her left ear, that marks her as a daughter of Avalis. She usually dons the finest raiment of silk or velvet, long flowing gowns, shawls and cloaks. Kamalia is almost never seen without the Pathfinder, a magical staff that was once owned by Sagallius.
Many humans mistake Kamalia for the fragile, pacifist Konti with her calm demeanor and soft, gentle speech. But once you spend time with her enough, you would realize that she is unlike her passive, peace-loving sisters. Kamalia is exceptional for her strength of will, cunning and a zest for adventure that is rare in solemn Mura. Admittedly eccentric in her tastes, she prefers scholarly pursuits and magical understanding to fortune-telling and symbology. Kamalia is marked by a serene self-possession, a regal grace and a studious nature. Assertive and independent, hardworking and remarkably intellectual, the Timandre wizard is steel covered in velvet.
Many times the young Konti puts on an aloof, emotionless exterior to keep others from getting too close for fear of "the Other One hurting them”. Beneath the impassive facade is a warm, passionate and nurturing soul. She believes in good and just ideals and sees self-control as the highest form of control that there is.
One must always remember that while Kamalia is a Konti seer, she is a wizard first and foremost. She suffers mental conditions caused by magical trauma. When pushed over the edge, these unpleasant tendencies surface—loss of self-control and sense of morality, obsession over power, god complex and becoming manipulative are a few among them. But the darkest of them only emerge when she overgives.

 Divination (Marked, 1 Gnosis Mark)
Marked followers of Avalis bear the first bloom of the Seer’s Lily and can delve into the Chavena at will seeking individual Chavi and reading the past. Their sight at this level is rough. It can be unpredictable and hit or miss, but if they can indeed find the Chavi they are looking for and read of its past, they have no problems coming up with answers to questions that might be presented to them. At this level, individuals cannot read the present or the future. There is also very little danger of mental illness or the seers becoming lost in the chavena. |

Truthsaying
Kamalia possesses the gift of detecting "truth" when it is being told (spoken, written, or telepathic, or in very rare cases, body language), where "truth" means the person communicating perceives what they are saying as correct, which is not necessarily the pure truth. This ability does not automatically allow her to detect lies, or discern the many layers of truth, unlike in Tyveth’s gnosis, Truthism. This gift also causes Kamalia to be obsessed with what is real, and affects her psyche in such a way that she is disgusted, or even angered, by people who make things up, embellish their stories, or simply do not "believe what they say". Prolonged periods of being in proximity of a decidedly unscrupulous individual causes her mental anguish. |
Artifacts
The Pathfinder
Formerly owned by Sagallius and usually stored in the Void, Pathfinder is considered a lesser staff to leave the workshop of renowned staffmaker Qaliana Sveransis in 16 BV, but still plays a crucial role. Aside from a minor enhancement to sturdiness, it was enchanted as a compass leading to the other staffs in Sagallius' possession. This cedar staff features the carvings of four robed figures on its tip, as they stare off in the four directions. |
Weapons
Shooting Stars (12 pieces)
Small Isurian steel blades shaped like six-pointed stars, perfectly balanced and evenly spaced, each ending in a sharp tip. Each star has a hole that aids in aerodynamic and weighting effects that aids flight when thrown. |
Suvai
Three-pronged weapon carved from the shed spiral horn of a white ocean whale. Complete with spiral handles, they are used almost exclusively by Konti women. When they draw blood, the suvai tend to weaken the person they cut or pierce, so it's highly likely the horn the suvai are carved from is inherently poisonous from those not Konti.

Books
Kiss the Sky by Kamalia Timandre
A journal written by a Konti wizard. It contains the author’s biography, a comprehensive treatise on magical disciplines, and spellcasting techniques. The book also contains annotations on Lost Disciplines, history, wizard psychology and magical artifacts. The grimoire also contains information about the Game. It is written mainly in Kontinese, but some parts are inscribed in the Ancient Tongue. |
Treval Codex by Queen Avakalashi
The Treval Codex is the first documented book on magic, composed when the written word was still young. Its author was Avakalashi, the legendary first Queen of Alahea and a daughter of Eyris. This grimoire, while badly outdated, is basically a must-read for any wizard of even a minor scholarly disposition. The book is not a strict manual on magic, but a loose collection of tales and philosophical discussion around magic as a whole. Much of the magical jargon first appeared on the Treval Codex, most notably the word Djed. |
