White Duke

The White Duke was a master bard, a member of the Golden Grin, and founder of the school that would eventually be called the College of the White Duke.

Background
Before he died, the White Duke gifted Mythcarver, one of the Vestiges of the Divergence, to his friend Kamaljiori, the androsphinx mate of Osysa. One of the reasons Ioun gave for Scanlan Shorthalt being eligible to earn her blessing was that he carried the White Duke's blade and walked a parallel path.

The College of the White Duke
The White Duke founded a small school for the arts called the College of the Savvy in Westruun's Scholar Ward, across the way from the Cobalt Reserve; later the school would be more commonly known as the College of the White Duke.

Kaylie attended the College of the White Duke before joining up with Dr. Dranzel's Spectacular Traveling Troupe in her pursuit of vengeance against Scanlan Shorthalt.

Trivia
The name "White Duke" is a reference to one of David Bowie's many stage personas.
