- Appearance: Cloaked in a shifting patchwork of old maps, bearing a lantern made of stitched-together eyes. Their footsteps sound like falling acorns.
- Personality: Calm, soft-voiced, endlessly patient. Speaks like a teacher correcting a child.
- Abilities:
- Path Theft: Steals the “true path” of a wanderer and replaces it with endless looping trails.
- Thread Binding: Weaves people into the forest’s logic. Once bound, they become part of its mechanisms—lampposts that whisper, bridges that bleed.
- Map-Crafting: Can draw maps of your inner self—then trap you within them.
- Domain: Wanders rather than rules, but a trail of flickering thread often marks where they’ve passed. Trusted servant of the Thorn-Mother.
- Rumors: They were once a human cartographer who mapped too many dreams.
