The White Raven is a mysterious prophet who has never shown his face. His Feathers are servants who deliver messages to those who can change their fate. These messages are always delivered along with a single white raven feather.
Description
As The White Raven has never shown his face, there is no description of him available. His followers, the Feathers, wear robes covered in white and grey feathers, and ceremonial raven masks.
Personality
The White Raven's messages never explain the full situation, they simply pronounce forseen facts or orders. Sometimes they are cryptic, but most often they are short direct commands. In dire situations, a Feather will show himself and give the message personally, they do not say anything apart from what the message is. A few people have tried to kill the Feathers, but they just disappear in a cloud of feathers, the people who attempt this always meet their end by some kind of accident.
History
Letters with white feathers have been appearing for thousands of years, the first one dating back to circa -2300 DR, though it is believed that the White Raven himself did not come into existance until a long time later. The Feathers appeared for the first time in 211 DR. They appear so rarely that Epsilon and the Harpers have recorded every known sighting.
