Venn
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Breed: Common Horse
Conformation: Exmoor Pony
Height: 12 hh
Talent: Agriculturist, Improvisionist
Blessing: Plant Manipulation
Teke Color: Rust orange
Maker Specialty: Hydroponics

Venn has only come into prominence as a Maker in the past few years, but already holds an influential spot among the top of the rank for his innovations. He resides in Sterling, in a home built rather high up on the sloping walls of the city's cavern. Being closer to the skylight allows his home to be naturally warmer than the lower streets of the city. His house connects to a cavern that is in addition filled to the brim with imbued lanterns, which put off enough light (hence the goggles he wears to protect his sensitive, cave-dweller eyes) and heat to create conditions extremely close to that of the surface. A natural pool of runoff from the waterfall lies in the cavern, in which Venn has grown a booming hydroponic system.
Having grown up very low on the list for food rations, Venn is extremely frustrated with the current system of inequality held in place by the Old Generation. He feels that fresh, varied foods should be available to everyone, and seeks to change the way that food is provided for the herd. He feels that they rely too heavily on food provided from the surface when there are perfectly good ways of growing it underground.
He has become very successful in growing the most common foods (tubers, rice, grasses, herbs, tea leaves) and some of the more uncommon ones, and has become proficient enough at seed saving to not buy starters for these plants anymore. He is always seeking new seeds, however, in hopes to experiment with the more exotic foods. He hopes to one day be able to feed all of the New Generation, without them having to rely on the food rationing system.

VENN WILL:
-give food to your New Gen character
-mentor your character in hydroponics/underground agriculture
-befriend your New Gen character
-heartily participate in all of the New Gen festivals
-hire your miner/farmer/guide to bring him some new seeds or plants from the surface
-loudly talk smack about the royal family and the kirins
-show preferences towards other Makers
-talk to your character for hours about plants and politics
-act like a know-it-all
-eat a lot

VENN WILL NOT:
-give food to an old gen character
-give your characters any seeds
-explain the tattoo on his shoulder
-slack off in his work
-leave Sterling
-adopt your character
-interact with a kirin (except to run away)
-hurt anyone

CULTURALLY, VENN IS...
... strictly New Generation
... very accepting of outsiders BUT terrified and extremely angry about kirins
... against the High King and his family's perceived status
... respectful of all the gods and the parts they play in agriculture, but never prays to Ignacio
