Current Projects
- Conceive and construct a sculpture for Art Initiation. One that's nice. And not too expensive.
- Design a Thoth's Puzzle for Thought Initiation.
- Get introductions for Harmony Initiation.
Future Projects
- Construct a good-sized obelisk in camp. Hekatef's ancestors have always been fortunate enough to live in sparsely populated lands, where it is possible to pass the Test of the Obelisk with even a modest structure. Hekatef IV wishes to break with family tradition and build a mighty obelisk worthy of the name. And no, he is not compensating for anything at all.
- Assist with the discovery of Barley Cultivation and Beer Brewing in Queen's Retreat. This, too, is a family tradition dating back to the founder of the line. It is said that beer runs in the veins of the Hekatef family. This would certainly explain a lot.
- Master viticulture. This has not formerly been a craft that the Hekatef line was known for. Grapevines practically wither at the touch of a Hekatef. In this telling, that curse shall be broken.
Family History
Hekatef III
Hekatef III, grandfather to our modern Hekatef and a veteran of the previous Tale, is still alive today. Extremely elderly, he spends most of his time indoors, but he will occasionally barge into Queen's Retreat regional chat to grouse about kids today and relate unprompted stories of the olden days.
