==Introduction==
Katiesa Thule is a mostly human cleric and adherent of the Lord of Dreams. Generally, she prefers to be called Katie. Born and raised in Wehnimer's Landing, she is the only child of Damangherik Thule (former cleric of Lorminstra) and Jakaesa Jynel (ranger of Imaera). If she could sing, she might have been a bard. Alas, she can not. Still, she is passionate about telling stories and tales that are based upon events in, or are simply firmly set in, the western side of Elanthia. Although she has had success in past storytelling contests, she no longer wishes to compete, preferring exhibitions and storytelling evenings where all tales, storytellers, and listeners may be winners.
