The White

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The White is the term used for the five avatars of the Pantheon of Five Gods in the Age of the Five series of books by Trudi Canavan. They are called such as their preferred style of dress is a pure white tunic, denouncing any fashionable or decorative ties, symbolising their devotion to the Gods. The newest White is Auraya of the White and she is stated to be the third most powerful, although that is questionable. All the White have amazing magical skill and are the most powerful Mages in the Circlian kingdom. The White all have their own distinctive features. For example, Rian is utterly devoted to and besotted with the Gods, Juran is a great leader, Dyara is very stern and Mairae has a reputation for having a lot of lovers (in Last of the Wilds she admits she "uses them for sex").

The White are comprised of:

  • Juran
  • Dyara
  • Auraya
  • Rian, and
  • Mairae.

The White's counterpart in the Pentadrian religion is the Voice of the Gods
