+{{ :deities:navigators_compass.png?100|}}Takri the Navigator is popular with captains, ship's officers, and her main following is in the islands and along the coast.  However, she also has a small following among overland travellers as well.
 Lore: She was a sailor from a distant island, and was captain of a small vessel that traded and fished around the local coast.   One day a great storm arose and sank much of the fleet, Takri managed to save her small barque by tying her hands to the steering oar, while her crew held on for dear life. However, her small ship was pushed further out into the ocean than any vessel had ever travelled before.  For many years her vessel roamed the far seas, scraping a living from the few islands they encountered and surviving many marvellous adventures.  However, eventually, even Takri and her intrepid crew tired of roaming, and decided it was time to make her way home.  So she prayed and vowed to the gods that if they would guide her home, then she would spend an eternity as their guide in return.  They took her up on it, and made her a demigod – and gave her the task of guiding the dead to their afterlife.

-**Lore**: During the earliest times the gods noticed that, after death, some of their followers souls were going missing.  Investigations showed that the souls were getting intercepted by Spirit followers of the LE deities, and taken as slaves for their master.  The gods' solution was to take the first passing soul and make it a demi-god charged with escorting souls to their proper place in the afterlife.  Takri now oversees an army of Life Lights, small (TN) spirits who wanted some sort of purpose in their afterlife, who lead the souls of the newly deceased.  Rarely does Takri need to get involved at all.  Because of her role as a guide, many travellers make small donations and offerings to Takri before, during and after their journeys.
