 History/Relationships:  Inabus was the caretaker of prophecy. He knew that nothing was truly fortold, but with enough knowledge you could know what was going to happen regardless. He worked to gain this knowledge, pen down fate and hand it on to those who needed it. He made no attempts to change fate, only to scribe it down. Entire collages worked to understand how the universe worked, so that fate could be written. Inabus was the only one who warned of the strike coming before the Great War, but even he didn’t see Barnabas breaking fate so wide, creating a million new variables, none more prominent than himself. In some ways, Barnabas gave Inabus new life, giving him new laws and a new reality to study, and as much as Inabus still bears the anger at Barnabas for being the first to make him wrong, it has given the Webreader the greatest variable to understand, and resulted in a game of cat and mouse where Inabus makes a prophecy, and Barnabas breaks it. He shows himself rarely, preferring to play from the background, but when he does he appears as a thin, lithe man, dressed in comfortable, but nice clothing, pockets and pouches filled with scrolls, carrying a long polearm with him, the haft wrapped in scrolls of prophecy that flutter in the wind, all held in his ink-stained fingers.

 Dogma:  You can never be certain of anything as long as true chaos exists, but the more you know the more you can predict. All decisions in life are simply an analysis and response, and if you know every single variable that goes into that moment in time, you will know what will happen after that moment in time. In this way, it is possible to know the future. Seek to learn more, to know more, and to understand more. Not just in scrolls and tomes, but in people as well.  Clergy and Temples:  The temples of Inabus often double as libraries. Many clerics of Inabus make money on the side offering prophecy and fortune telling which, while never 100% accurate, is often eerily reliable. Ultimately though, most clerics of Inabus are scholars, mathematicians and students of the sciences first and foremost. For this reason, they are often welcomed wherever they go, and most major cities have at least a college or library in his name. There is a near constant prank war going between the followers of Inabus and Barnabas, almost child-like in nature.
