'''Viika''' is a dragonkin seer who came to [[Dragonwilds:Ashenfall]] with their sibling [[Dragonwilds:Lacrussa]] and other Dragonkin, including [[Dragonwilds:Rasthin]] and [[Dragonwilds:Avisk]]. As a seer, Viika experiences time differently from other Dragonkin, often existing in moments of their life other than the present. This often results in cryptic and sometimes incomprehensible predictions of the future.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Viika was rescued by their sibling, Lacrussa, from what is described as a gilded prison where they had been raised. This act of freeing Viika made Lacrussa an outcast among their people. As a Dragonkin seer, Viika is "timeswept", existing in multiple moments of their life simultaneously. This condition allows them to perceive future events, though their predictions are often cryptic and difficult to understand. This trait is shared with other seers, such as the Dragonkin {{RSL|The Ambassador|Kranon}}, before his fall. Viika's seer abilities cause them to make vague pronouncements that frustrate other Dragonkin, particularly concerning "something sinister to come." Fellow Dragonkin often find Viika's warnings frustrating due to their lack of clarity.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
Viika appears to have a gentler nature than most dragonkin. Even when Avisk's unauthorized experiment left Viika burned and their wing permanently damaged, Viika stopped Lacrussa from killing him. Lacrussa described them as "not like the rest of us".{{CiteJournal|journal=Lacrussa's Diary|quote=He attached tubes, crystals and all sorts of nonsense to my sibling's head and attempted something with rune essence that caused a lot of explosions. Viika was hurt, burned across their temple and one of their wings is damaged enough that they might never fly again... In that instant I dragged blades of ice from the aether, and I would have torn Avisk to pieces of only my sibling hadn't said "no". Always too gentle Viika, not like the rest of us.}} Unlike the other dragonkin in the Cabal, Viika never partook of Rasthin's discovery of elemental power because, as a seer, they foresaw what it would turn the others into.{{CiteJournal|journal=Lacrussa's Diary|quote=Maybe that's why they never partook Rasthin's discovery. Because they knew what monsters we'd become.}}<br />
Viika had ethical concerns about the creation of dragons, considering the process cruel and unbecoming. Unlike other dragonkin who viewed dragons merely as tools or experiments, Viika saw both the current existence and future fate of dragon hatchlings, causing them great sorrow. They pleaded with their sibling and the other dragonkin to change their treatment of the beasts, but like many seers, their pleas were ignored by their kindred.{{CiteJournal|journal=Dragonbone Dagger|quote=Viika was never fond of creating dragons, they thought the process was cruel and unbecoming. When an egg was laid, Viika saw in that moment both the egg and the dragon it would become. They saw past and presence at the same time, and they grieved the creature before it had even hatched... They pleaded with their sibling, and with the other Dragonkin, to change their treatment of the beasts. But Viika's curse, like so many Seers, was to be ignored by their kindred.}}<br />
Viika's compassion extended to other creatures as well. When Lacrussa was going to incinerate the remaining dragon-wolves after deeming the experiment a failure, Viika released all of them instead.{{CiteJournal|journal=Experiment Log|quote=I was going to incinerate the remaining members, but Viika in a fit of strangeness released them all.}}<br />
==Notable relationships==<br />
===Lacrussa===<br />
Dragonkin typically lack the empathy to nurture family, treating kinship as survival rather than care due to their curse.{{CiteJournal|journal=Lacrussa's Journal|quote=Dragonkin don't normally do family. We're all so focused on our own problems, our constant pain, that we sometimes lack the empathy to care for someone else. Romance died the day of the curse, I swear, and family became a necessary act of survival, rather than a nurturing thing.}} Lacrussa chose to defy this. She deeply loves Viika but admits she will never truly understand her sibling due to Viika's seer nature and unusual behaviour.{{CiteJournal|journal=Vault Guardian Sentinel|quote=She loved her sibling dearly... Yet she knew that, deep down, she would never truly understand them.}} Lacrussa acted as a shield against the horrors of the present so Viika could experience the future they had already lived.{{CiteJournal|journal=Lacrussa's Journal|quote=So if they do not know what day is today, I will keep them grounded. I will be the shield against the horrors of the present, so that they will see the tomorrow they've already lived.}} When Avisk's experiment severely injured Viika, Lacrussa was prepared to kill a fellow dragonkin to protect her sibling.{{CiteJournal|journal=Lacrussa's Diary|quote=I have never felt anger like I did in that moment. Even the rage from the curse never struck me as hard. In that instant I dragged blades of ice from the aether, and I would have torn Avisk to pieces.}}<br />
<br />
===White-scaled dragon===<br />
Viika formed a bond with a rare white-scaled dragon hatchling who possessed magic capable of traveling between worlds. Viika treated this dragon as a dear friend, keeping it company and comforting it until Lacrussa's experiments ultimately led to the dragon's death. Viika kept a dagger carved from the dragon's tooth as a memento of their friendship.{{CiteJournal|journal=Dragonbone Dagger|loc=|quote=Viika kept the hatchling company. Treated them like their dearest friend, and held them softly when Lacrussa’s need for knowledge, took the dragon’s last breath.}}<br />
<br />
===Vault Guardians===<br />
Viika was observed laughing with one of the vault guardians, which puzzled Lacrussa, who had never seen Viika laugh with her. This suggests Viika may have seen something in these constructs that other dragonkin missed, possibly supporting Avisk's theory that the guardians possessed souls.{{CiteJournal|journal=Vault Guardian Sentinel|loc=|quote=When she found her sibling, the seer Viika, laughing with one, she questioned everything, especially since Viika had never laughed with her.}}<br />
<br />
==Prophecies and Warnings==<br />
Viika made several cryptic prophecies that the other dragonkin found difficult to interpret, including:<br />
* References to "the blood makes her hungry."<br />
* Mentions of "warriors from across the sea" who would "put an end to her vengeance."<br />
* Warnings about "something sinister to come."<br />
