Professor Cassian Mire
Keeper of Knowledge
Pale, quiet, with several floating books that orbit him slowly. Unsettlingly observant. Encourages dangerous curiosity and asks questions with no correct answer. Some believe he already knows how every student will fail. "Truth does not care if you are ready."
About Professor Cassian Mire
Cassian Mire's books orbit him because his hands are usually occupied taking notes. He teaches arcane theory as a practice of disciplined doubt, asking questions designed to expose the assumption beneath an answer. A successful lesson often ends with students less certaināand far more curiousāthan when it began.
As keeper of restricted texts, he decides which dangerous ideas may be studied and under what safeguards. His decisions can seem permissive until one notices how closely he watches. Students whisper that he can foresee every way a lesson might fail. He says prediction is merely preparation with better manners.
