Epodora

Epodora was a female Dwarf who served as the 20th Tulkon. She was born in 1506 AT in Nenihr, Nodal. A naval battle between Orcanth and Nodal damaged Yaaamemon's Rock, releasing the Spirit of the Tulkon. It found its way to her, making her the reincarnation of Tulkon Yaaamemon. Epodora's confirmation as the Tulkon was groundbreaking in many ways. She was the first Nodal Dwarf to be the Tulkon, as well as the first Tulkon after the 300-year Age with No Tulkon. She was also the first mixed-race Tulkon, having some Ynoforan ancestry as a result of the settlement of Nodal. Her confirmation also legitimized the religion of Prophetism and the country of Nodal, which had declared its independence from Norte-Muldox only 36 years earlier.

The world was changing, and the Tulkon had fallen into legend in the past 300 years. Finding the place of the Tulkon in a modern world defined Epodora’s career. She participated in the multinational intervention in Honsin when the city rebelled against the Usybork government, and was able to help quell the conflict and provide a path for Honsin’s independence. She also helped solve a millennia-old border dispute on the Frozen continent. She died of old age in 1569 AT, and was succeeded by Tulkon Sakyge. She is best remembered for her legitimization of Pantulkonism and Nodal, and for being the first Tulkon of a new age.
