Profile

A copyist of the archives of Anemhal, where names are erased from the records on Ilvesk's orders. Ostav copies them first, in the margins, in a private code. At seventeen, as an apprentice, he watched the girl at the next desk run, and has never forgiven himself for not running with her.

In their words

  • Forgive me. I remember things. It is a terrible habit.

Ethereal Path

170 of its 255 stars can be lit: two shared zones, then one specialization to choose.

From Oath Tier V, once 60% of Mastery is lit, choose one specialization. The other one stays visible but closed. Switching costs 20,000 Lume and gives back the points spent.

Oath Tale

The Margins

Ostav finds a name scraped off the archive rolls, and decides to write it back in ink that cannot be erased.
