| - | A poorly-understood figure who united the Tulaki on their home planet, and began the push for developing FTL travel and crusading outwards to spread the Path. True accounts of their life and deeds are fragmentary and poor, but enough to point to their existence and name. It is thought that prior to gaining an understanding of how memory affects the spiritual realm, a schismatic reactionary element within the priesthood sought to annihilate all records of Enki the Unifier. | + | A poorly-understood figure who united the Tulaki on their home planet, and began the push for developing Faster-Than-Light travel and crusading outwards to spread the Path.

| + | One of the ancient legendary figures referenced by Tulak in the codification of the Path, Neboro ruled a mountainous region of Origin beset on all sides by hostile nations. Neboro designed a mighty ring of fortifications to protect her domain, with only a single point which allowed ingress, and placed her personal fortress there. After many years of raids beaten back, when all the surrounding nations sent armies to sack her domain, she sacrificed herself and her fortress using a “column of light and fire”, which annihilated the opposing armies and collapsed the mountain pass, allowing her domain to prosper unmolested by enemies. | ||

| Kalila is credited with forging early Tulaki colonies and the first few alien species they encountered into the Tulaki Dominion, with the explicit mission to spread the Path of Tulak to the entire galaxy. Her political acumen was able to reconcile the competitive Tulaki spirit with the alien mindsets and goals of those species they had discovered. She was able to communicate her grand vision of a single political entity with a united purpose, and coordinate the fractious priesthood into a ruling body that remained at enough distance to prevent friction. | Kalila is credited with forging early Tulaki colonies and the first few alien species they encountered into the Tulaki Dominion, with the explicit mission to spread the Path of Tulak to the entire galaxy.

| - | In addition to the list above, feel free to create your own Immortal Spirits that are important to your group. Important things to consider when creating a spirit include its name and title, its area of expertise, what known factual knowledge exists about its life, and any miracles or prominent individuals that may have been associated with. We may involve prominent Spirits in the game, but may make alterations to them for plot and story purposes. | + | |

| + | Immortal Spirits exist as part of a series of hierarchies, usually led by a powerful spirit with responsibility over a broad field of endeavour. Their lesser subordinate spirits have more narrowly focused purviews - concentrated on a specific discipline or planet. There are many of these Immortal Spirits, and according to the ecclesiocracy their power and influence tends to wax and wane a bit more than the most powerful spirits. | ||
