Vidan

Vidan

Vidan is a Purple‑aligned priest of Navere and the pragmatic, bureaucratic investigator of the Middlesea Free Rangers. He combines formal paperwork (notably preparing and distributing "Tarn Evidence Packets") with powerful Purple miracles—Witnessing, sanctification, outside‑time rituals and teleport beacons—to investigate assassinations, organize security for high‑level events (such as a coronation), liaise with ministers and spymasters (e.g. Suvatra, Mary, Violet) and coordinate diplomatic efforts against threats like the Slith and orc incursions. Calm, dry and legally minded, he excels at detective work, oratory and procedural fixes, is cautious about Yellow/Broken magics, and routinely designs rituals (party naming, shared oaths) that bind the group; during the comet‑time chaos he has occasionally vanished or manifested alternate aspects (notably "Nivad"), but his constant is a focus on preventing coups, exposing spies, and keeping government machinery functioning under crisis.
