Kulik Trellara: A Profile

Kulik Trellara is a Cyclicist scholar on the cutting edge of magic and mathematics. His work to understand the form and interaction of waves has advanced the understanding of Cyclisist magic more than any since Tide Father Egromane.

Among scholars Trellara is best known for his work with Deodonus the Longbearded on waves and repeating information; in addition to creating rituals to record and analyze sound and other waves, they determined a method for transforming waves from the time domain to the frequency domain, known as a Trellara Transform*, and created rituals for this process as well.

Trellara was raised in an orphanage run by the Cyclicist Church in Beata Tembria; he was left at the orphanage when he was six (this age estimate is uncertain). From a young age he showed interest in many areas of study. The Reverend Mother of the orphanage arranged for him to receive Warlock training when he was 10, which he learned quickly. Trellara graduated at the top of his class six years later.

After graduating Trellara traveled between the cities in the Kingdom of Votan, studying with scholars in each and visiting the Cyclicist temples. He returned to Beata Tembria after six years.

When the Amperis plague swept through Beata Tembria, Trellara was essential to repulsing the assaults by Bayreun while most of the city was laid low. After the city was safe Trellara worked with a special unit of the Urbana Hasta to track down the geist worshipers responsible for plague.

Following his work with the Urbana Hasta, the librarians at the Grand Librarium were sufficiently impressed with his methods and knowledge to seek his aid with several difficult problems (though they would not disclose the nature of these issues to us). It was during this time that he first met Deodonus, though whether they worked together then was also not disclosed to us.

After working with the Urbana Hasta and the librarians for six years, Trellara travelled to across Tonis studying cycles and waves for six years. After this time he returned to Beata Tembria, where he again met with Deodonus; it was at this time that they worked together on the recording and representation of waves, discovering and defining the math involved. The two published their work six years later.

Since finishing his work with Deodonus, Kulik Trellara has been working with the leaders of the Cyclicist warrior orders to incorporate his findings into their magics.

It has been six years since Kulik Trellara began working to incorporate his findings into the magics of the Cyclicist warriors.

*The Trellara Transform is a Fourier Transform.
