Quin Aven is House Omnillian’s citygod.

Appearance

Quin is a petrid doorknocker, and his body now comprises the entirety of the Omnillian citadel. He can control the citadel with his thoughts and send his awareness to any point in the building, but he remains restricted to the building due to his nature.

Personality

Before his rise to citygodhood, Quin was said to be an intellectual who enjoyed teaching and sharing knowledge among others, always ready to help those who sought to learn. After his abduction by the Council and subsequent coronation as a citygod, however, he has become more distant and cold. Rumors in Omnillian state that Quin is frustrated by the Council restricting what information he is allowed to share, as well as both the Council and his very nature as a citygod greatly limiting the amount of visitors he is allowed to receive. Some claim he would still like to be the eager teacher he once was, while others wonder what effects the corruption brought about by his current state may have had on his psyche.

Backstory

Quin Aven started life as a mere doorknocker, and never developed a proper body beyond his head. Most petrids are excised from their host building, but Quin refused as the process would likely kill him. Fortunately, despite being confined to life hanging off of a door, the mistress of the house was considerate enough to bring Quin texts to occupy his mind.

Over the years Quin's studies would rival those of preeminent scholars, particularly in the esoteric field of artifact creation - a field with very few practitioners at the time of his learning. As his prowess grew, he began to create wholly original tools and items, which he secretly shared with others. Eventually, Quin's work drew the attention of the Council, and the petrid - door included - was stolen away into the Spire.

The Conduit was built shortly afterwards, at the very top of the Spire. For his work, Quin was elevated to the role of citygod, founding the house of Control, Omnillian. It's main citadel was constructed around his original building, where he resides to this day.
