The Captain Pathmaker is an old, travel-themed Hour. A friend to all Mansus-dwellers, who tends to be a bit too mysterious for his own good. He simultaneously wishes to contribute to the Mansus as a whole, as well as forward his own goals. Some trust him. Some do not.
==Description==
===History===
===Abilities===
*The Captain Insider is a master of lore, even among fellow Hours. While new developments may be beyond his reach, he has mastered all prior rites and secrets, ancient and modern, and has a large supply or artifacts. He also has access to the otherworldly - objects, rituals and sacred words that do not hail from the Mansus, yet still hold their power within it. Of course, being the historian that he is, his knowledge of the mundane is also vast.
* While he clearly doesn't harbor the connection or powers of a From-Light, he is still favored and respected by those hours. Rumors tell that he has greatly assisted the Glory itself throughout the years.
*The Captain He is the Hour of travel and exploration. His , and his signature ability is being able to get himself (and those he brings along) just about anywhere.
===Principles===
* The Explorer - Curiosity, wanderlust, a hunger for both knowledge and adventure.
* The Guide - Those who seek a safe journey need simply ask the Captain Outsider or his colleagues for aid.
* The Unknown - He also embodies the very places that he seeks to travel to. Secrets, conspiracies, dangers and fears.
==Worship==
===Cult===
The Pilgrim Captain's mortal followers are the Sunset Noontide Crew - a decentralized cult with no base of operations, though its members are known to gather every so-and-so. As one might expect, the these members are mostly explorers or historians.
Offerings are made in the form of pilgrimages and written works detailing either the acts of travel themselves, or historical events.
Marks are literal - objects marked by the Captain Pathmaker or his servants that just so happen to be found by followers once they are ready.

===The Mansus===
====The Grand LibraryMiscellanea====
A large complex housing the historical records of the Mansus throughout thousands of years. It is kept functional by the Captain's crew, who have become the denizens of this place. It is functionally identical to a regular library, although the price of copying or renting literature is beyond mere currency (though still very reasonable).
====The Captain's Chambers====
Somewhat separate from the Library - judging by architecture and entry point (a simple wooden door), this should be a small room. Upon entry, one is brought to a series of large, ornate chambers where the Hour himself resides. The rooms contain a private collection of literature, maps, music in various forms and artwork, usually of historical value, such as statues, pictures and such. There's also a cellar housing the finest wines. The Captain Patmaker is often seen writing, researching or shamelessly lazying about. Any Name and/or Hour is free to visit him.
====The Treasury====
A vault within the Library, guarded and sealed both physically and mystically. Legends say that those who see the vault's contents are blinded until they pay a debt to the CaptainOutsider. Those who claim to have suffered this curse whisper about the majesty of its contents - exaggerated into infinite wealth and power, though certainly prestigious in reality as well.
====The Solace====
An old but sturdy Galleon, and the CaptainPathmaker's trusty ship. It sails on anything as if it were water, and moves as fast as a ray of light. The ship is usually kept in a pool underneath the Library, as it doesn't see much use in this age. The entire ship is an artifact in its own right, as it allows the Captain to influence anyone who steps aboard - usually to ferry them somewhere.
===The Histories===
The Pathmaker has clearly influenced the Mansus with his visits, but details of his exact actions are conveniently left out, even from his own archives. Perhaps Whether or not someone has breached truly made records of his trust and left proper records, however..actions is unclear.
