N P C: E X A E L
Details
Sphere: Celestial
Rank: Lesser
Relation to Sivan: Aidolon
Disposition: An insatiable desire to know, but also to put knowledge into context to better understand. Pragmatic. Strategic, though sometimes lacking in other virtues. Exael is a spirit of insight, who wishes to better understand the world from new perspectives, hoping to become a spirit of wisdom through its bond with Sivan, who it deems intelligent and emotional; not wise, but with potential. IT frequently finds his actions incomprehensible and wants him to be more dispassionate. Sivan derives some structure from Exael's simplistic views; Exael derives greater perspective from Sivan's. Either they will drive each other mad or they will encourage each other to grow.
Abilities
Insight: While meditating together, Exael helps Sivan sift through information to find connections. He remembers things he had forgotten. It can act like eidetic memory, intuition, or heightened perception, but as yet it is relatively uncontrolled. With more time working together, it ought to become more focused.
Direction: When Sivan doesn't know something, but has an idea of what it will look like, Exael can help to point him to where he can find an answer. Blindfold him and spin him around in a library and he will stumble and put his hands on a book that will, somewhere inside, have the answer or the next step toward what he is trying to figure out. Figuring out what that is remains his problem.
