Othniel appears as a scholarly figure with a scroll in one hand and a quill in the other. His eyes radiate intelligence, and an ever-changing aura of written symbols and equations circles him. His attire, usually a robe covered in glyphs and ancient scripts, reflects his dominion over knowledge and learning.

In an epoch where ignorance veiled the world, Othniel arose as a mortal named "Othniel the Inquisitive." With unquenchable curiosity, he traveled across Greyhawk to amass knowledge, uncover secrets, and understand the mysterious intricacies of the universe. As his reputation grew, he drew the attention of the gods, who, impressed by his unyielding quest for understanding, transformed him into Othniel, the Divine Scholar.

Known as the Scholars of Othniel, his followers include scribes, mages, historians, and thinkers from every corner of Greyhawk. They congregate in libraries, academies, and halls of learning, dedicating their lives to the ceaseless pursuit of knowledge and wisdom.

"The Gathering of Wisdom," a convention where scholars, mystics, and seekers of truth present their discoveries and share insights, is held in Othniel's honor. Rare scrolls and ancient texts are often unveiled during this event, contributing to the expansion of knowledge across Greyhawk.

Lysandra the Insightful, a master librarian with the ability to instantly memorize any written text, serves as the earthly avatar of Othniel. Armed with the "Quill of Truth," she records the world's happenings and discoveries, ensuring that no wisdom is lost.

Othniel’s realm, the Great Archive, exists as a celestial sanctuary for all things related to wisdom and learning. This vast library contains every known and unknown piece of information, from the simplest equations to the most complicated cosmic theories. It is here that Othniel works tirelessly to categorize and preserve the wealth of knowledge, serving as the ultimate repository of wisdom for both the mortal and divine realms.

Othniel remains humble despite his overwhelming wisdom, fostering a culture of intellectual curiosity and open inquiry. His legacy, deeply ingrained in the pantheon of Greyhawk, serves as a testament to the never-ending quest for understanding and enlightenment. As the god of knowledge, Othniel believes in the limitless potential for learning, challenging both gods and mortals to seek truth and expand their horizons.
