Eqqila
Eqqila Ulmayon
A fortune-telling ethron who will appear in Qilarn, Eqiril, or along the Arien Road and read fortunes from time to time (she has a 'draw card' prog which can be used with the table below--but one can go with anything, that just serves to provide ideas to start with).
She is, in fact, just a fortune-teller, but one with impressive power (can play on info found in Backgrounds) and insight via her connection to Elar.
[ 200] Eqqila Ulmayon (after loading, use 'eqqila_equip' verb_prog to set items)
RULE 1: she asks for payment AFTER she reads the fortune. Prices are most often RPing of something unusual (a secret, a lock of hair, a tear, an honest smile, a drop of blood) but can also be coin or EQ (never more than the character has, unless they've insulted her).
RULE 2: if the character doesn't pay, they're in for an (one) instance of bad luck. :)
RULE 3: she will only reluctantly attempt to read the fortunes of lawful characters, especially those disassociated with nature.
Can have characters use 'draw card' prog on Eqqila (easy approach: 3 cards, one for past, present, and future).
