Codex Entry: Brayuun – The Antlered Wraith-Cat
Guide of the Hollow Path, Presence in Absence, and Shadow Familiarity
Name:
Brayuun: Known by Spiral dream-keepers as “The Silence That Hunts with You”
Type:
Animal Guide – Hollow Alignment
Form:
A large, feline creature with sleek midnight fur and spectral white antlers rising like bone-chimes from its brow.Its eyes are dark pools with glimmering spiral reflections deep inside.Its tail leaves streaks of faint light or shadow depending on who is watching.
Symbolism:
Elemental Focus: Hollow (emptiness, haunting, unrealized potential)
Archetypal Role: Brayuun teaches the Seeker to move through emptiness without becoming lost in it—to find shape within what is missing
Associated Glyph: An antlered crescent fading into a spiral void
Behavior and Nature:
Appears in moments of loss, identity shedding, or when a Seeker has stopped “trying”
Will sometimes mirror the Seeker’s movements precisely, as if asking: are you here, or watching yourself from afar?
Often glimpsed from the corner of the eye or trailing just behind
Presence in the Spiral:
Brayuun prowls the Hollow Paths, Absent Groves, and appears during Name-Shedding Rites and Inner Disappearance Trials.He may also arrive when a Seeker begins to fear their own stillness.
Phrase of Arrival (Heard as echo or written in air):
“You have not vanished. You have only stepped outside the frame.”
Companion Role:
Ideal for Seekers unraveling identities, facing numbness, or confronting inner void
Works closely with Omryl, Fractured Pathwalkers, and those ready to stop performing spiritual healing
His antlers are used as ritual symbols to mark hidden truths and paths not chosen
Ritual Invocation Offering:
To invite Brayuun’s haunting grace:
Write your name in ash
Speak it three times, then wipe it away
Sit in darkness until your own breathing becomes unfamiliar
When you feel eyes that do not demand—he is near
