Curiosity
Embodying chaos, insanity and imagination, Curiosity was never one to enjoy the golden age that Authority brought forth. An elusive figure, only the most inquisitive could possibly uncover a shred of information about her; those who dared to do so faced the unenviable choice of insanity or knowledge that defies understanding. A choice that is difficult to distinguish.
Her realm, Wonderland, represents the very essence of imagination and thus the catalyst of Magic. Most practitioners are unaware of the secrets of magic, and only those with a strong enough curiosity will be able to comprehend the power they wield and how truly incredible it is. Mages who cast with reckless abandon, ignoring their own limitations, would disappear and end up in her realm, where they will never be seen again.
Blessings of Curiosity
Few they may be, Curiosity worshipers include mages seeking higher power, conspiracy theorists, intelligent people who believe in Curiosity's existence, and the clinically insane. Curiosity clerics are able to tap into Wonderland itself, resulting in completely random and almost uncontrollable but potent spells, though the mental toll might be taxing, the results are extraordinary.
Candidates of Curiosity receive knowledge from multiple versions of themselves in various realities and worlds. This could result in knowing a strange never-before-seen spell or it could provide insight on things that could, had, or is currently happening simultaneously.
The mischievous Unfamiliar Fundamental also scattered a variety of tomes and scrolls of her own make throughout the lands, these books once read would shatter the mind of those unprepared, but to those with the right mindset, preparations and intelligence would be able to piece together cosmic knowledge and secrets to attaining godhood themselves. These books are highly sought out by the inquisition and to be safe-kept from the public at all costs. Greed ascended using such cosmic knowledge, however there was prices to be paid for such methods.
