Tezirah Eilsina

Ancient sorceress and Moon Mage from ca. 700 BL who is now trapped in the Plane of Probability. Escaped briefly (ca. 360 AV) by using the obelisk on Tasigath, but was pushed back by a group of Moon Mages including Grandmaster Taramaine and Pathian. Central figure in the events surrounding the Mirror Wraith Prophesy.

Executed for sorcery 700/703 BL, depending on timeline, during rule of Demin I. Legend has it that she was hung from an obelisk which lies beneath the present-day location of the Crossings Moon Mage guild. Using portions of the Deceiver device, escaped to the Plane of Probability.

Pathian was briefly trapped in the Plane of Probability with Tezirah. Their reputed child, Tethia, is alleged to have been conceived during this time.

Established what became known as the Progeny of Tezirah (initially taking the name "Thee Saesordian Cabal") 718 BL as a small gathering of mages who held academic interest in the arts of sorcery.

Tezirah herself was responsible for the creation of powerful magic devices, including the completion of the one(s) now collectively known as the Deceiver device, which was central to the Mirror Wraith Prophesy. Work had begun on this item five hundred years prior by unknown artificers (on the modern calendar, approximately 1200 BL).

Grand Squares, most commonly seen in artifacts of devastating ability. The notorious sphere known as the Deceiver which was capable of breaking the boundaries between the Plane of Abiding and the Plane of Probability employed no less than three Grand Squares on each of its three components. This helps explain why it took over five hundred years to create as mages capable of such feats are few and far between
