The dreamer known as Luther Doth is an unknown quality to many in the city, with little to nothing known of him besides his distant support of the darkmaren force as detailed above, the theft and... use... or Oracle of Asmyr's ashes, and the claiming of the Soul Essences of Rubedo and Lilith Morvant from their thrones in the Lightless Hollow (1, Rubedo Morvant's, was given to Arnaya of House Calenture as her "share" due to her initial finding of the Soul Essences. It was subsequently handed to Apothos of the Monastery of the Shadow at his request for personal reasons). This writer had a chance to speak with him for some brief time, and he revealed that he is a traveler of the various cities scattered across the Dreamscape. Moving from one to another, exploring.
He has expressed a strong draw towards items of power, including Dreamerling remains (Which are reputed to contain a great deal of energy in even the smallest amounts), and Soul Essences (which have been known to be used by various powerful beings for a variety of effects), and was repeatedly seen with a Jade glow emanating from beneath his robes. Recently, the glow was revealed as a perfectly round and smooth glowing green orb attached to a silver chain necklace. The exposed skin around the necklace was blackened with necrosis. At this point, it is believed that the orb itself is a Soul Essence... perhaps that of Lilith Morvant... one of the former Highborn lords of the Lightless Realm. The Entropy Coalition has revealed as well, that he is Not one of their number.
Most recently, he aided in an effort to recover more fragments of the Heart of the City. Please see that article for details.
Who is this man? What does he want? Who does he serve, and what is his purpose?

Luther Doth has once again seen countless times continuing with his capricious escapades. He had confirmed himself to being a member of the Entropy Coalition. It was unveiled some time ago that he was the architect behind the mysterious chaos drills in the Celebration Halls. These Chaos Drills have the ability to grant the Nightmares of the City, 9th plateau versions of each house’s respective art (Poison Cloud, Break Covenant, and likely Dazzle) Dreamers took to coordinate assaults and defensive measures to thwart further attempts to no avail. Dreamers of Light on the other hand were successful at removal of the drill, though at the expense of their entire Celebration Hall which now lays in shambles.
Dreamers be advised, exercise extreme caution in engagements with this dreamer. He has an uncanny ability to turn you into an emphant(NightMare form) alongside a wide variety of 9th plateau Fatesender arts as well as Blast. He is also often in the company of Horron level Darkmares, providing support and random chakfire. What are this man’s intentions? More importantly, are the members of the Entropy Coalition truly what they say they are…..helpful? What could potentially happen if the Heart of the City falls into their hands?

The Memorial Service to Oracle of Asmyr was somewhat disrupted by the theft of her ashes a couple of dreams prior. The service itself was simple, and held in the Teaching Hall by Zsa Zsa (HC), with words spoken in her memory by many that had come to know her within the city. Luther Doth arrived during the ceremony and expressed some fair interest in whether the assemblage had enjoyed the cake he had made for the gathering. Afterwards, the group moved on to the Shadowlight for a final moment of silence, when it was revealed that Luther Doth had been the one to take Oracles Ashes and had been.... creative... in his use of them with the creation of the Cake that he had donated to the memorial.
He claimed that Oracle of Asmyr had been a "Dreamerling"... a rare, order inspired spontaneous creation of the chaos that took dreamer form and was the source of a great deal of power. Sort of the dreamer equivalent to a lesser mare. Though Luther apparently could not understand the attachment that many had formed to such a being, he expressed how impressed he was that one such as her had made such an impact on the city of dreams and the dreamers that dwelt within.
This was, needless to say, somewhat of a disruption to the conclusion of the memorial and has caused many to have significant concerns about the nature and character of Luther Doth... while re-affirming many dreamers regard and warm thoughts for the woman we all knew as Oracle of Asmyr.
A carefully done sketch of a young woman. A thick robe, wound around her petite form. The rich ivory material contrasting nicely against her smooth ebony skin. Chalk runes are tattooed up her arms and down her legs. A long hooded cloak trails behind her. Snowy-white eyes almost appear to glow beneath her hood.
Was Oracle of Asmyr a natural spawn of the Dreamscape instead of a dreamer? Would that change who she was, or what she did? Or how valued she was to many? Farewell, Oracle. The gratitude of all those who knew you, and the memories of your time among us, remain strong.
