Attabre

Summary

Attabre is the god and father of The Sphinx, tied to Brass City, Benu, Garadul, Trixus, Anadreste, and Bynx.

Known Details

  • Trixus’s brass rings name Attabre as Protector of the Brass city, Salvation to his Children, first of his name and fifth of his kind.
  • Day 27 names Attabre, originally recorded as Altarrb, as the god associated with Father Haithes’s copper marygal chain and with the Father side of a Mother/Father religious pairing in Dunensend.
  • A shrine offering on day-42 produced the words: The father wishes freedom for all his children.
  • The Sphinx are the children of Attabre.
  • Day 43’s Benu book listed family names as a missing unnamed one, Anadreste, Benu, hidden Garadul, and Trixus.
  • Attabre manifested at the Ashkellon shrine after Brass City platinum was offered and said he sought atonement and justice.
  • Attabre was angry with Benu, and Goliaths were due to get a protector like Trixus.
  • Day 44 mentions Hannah as a priestess of Attabre and Bynx as the baby Attabre spirit brought in for the Goliaths as they became Emeraldus’s line.
  • The Original Goliath Sphinx was the Sphinx meant for the Goliaths. It was stolen and altered when the Dome was created, then used to alter memories across the Dome.
  • The Sphinx aspect of that altered creature reincarnated as Bynx.
  • Day 47 showed a toy figure of Attabre in a Grand Towers memory box, with an elven body and lion’s head; Bynx said Attabre was his father.
  • Trixus, Benu, and Garadul are Bynx’s brothers. Anadreste is Bynx’s sister, guardian of the white dragons, and sacrificed herself to become part of them.
  • Day 57 Attabre’s realm produced lore that leaders before him were dead, princes became dangerous, wrong deals may have been made to keep them in check, and Leedus’ father descended to earth to save his child from imprisonment.
  • Day 57 says the father met five others at Ground Towers as danger grew and they made a pact: rule one, but from afar.
  • Attabre told Eliana they were not just Icefang’s daughter but his too, and that they were killed for getting in the way while Lady Elissa Hartwall accepted the spells.
  • Eliana is also Attabre’s daughter because Icefang is her white dragon father and Anadreste, one of Attabre’s Sphinx children, sacrificed herself into the white dragons. White dragons and their descendants should therefore carry Anadreste’s trace.
  • Attabre warned that divine gifts before the next realm would be hard to choose and that if the party died there they would not get back up.
  • Attabre said bringing down the dome was the party’s choice, would weaken Throngore, and would not bother gods except those who benefit.

  • What task did Attabre give Trixus, and why was Trixus not going to achieve it?
  • What does rule one, but from afar mean, and is it the origin of the current god bargains?
