Moira the Timeless
Moira the Timeless was a legendary temporal archmage who existed simultaneously across three centuries through her mastery of time-based magic. Her groundbreaking work with the Chronosphere and creation of the Eternal Paradox Spell revolutionized the understanding of temporal manipulation in the mystic arts.

Origins and Early Life
While Moira's precise origin point remains debated among magical scholars, she first appeared during the Age of Crystal Stars. Her unique ability to maintain conscious existence across multiple time periods made traditional biographical documentation challenging. She studied at the Academy of Temporal Sciences in all three centuries simultaneously, effectively becoming her own teacher and student.
Major Achievements
The Eternal Paradox Spell
Moira's most significant contribution to magical theory was the creation of the Eternal Paradox Spell, which allowed practitioners to observe multiple temporal possibilities simultaneously. This breakthrough led to the foundation of the Paradox Preservation Society, dedicated to maintaining the integrity of timeline variations.

The Three-Century Experiment
Perhaps her most ambitious project was the Three-Century Experiment, during which she maintained continuous existence in the past, present, and future simultaneously for over fifty years. This unprecedented feat allowed her to compile the Temporal Codex, a comprehensive guide to time manipulation magic.
Mysterious Disappearance
During the Great Convergence, a rare astronomical event that amplified magical energies worldwide, Moira vanished from all three time periods she inhabited simultaneously. Some theories suggest she transcended conventional temporal existence, while others believe she became trapped between moments in time.
Legacy
Moira's contributions to temporal magic continue to influence modern magical theory. The Timekeepers' Guild still uses many of her techniques, and her theoretical frameworks remain fundamental to advanced temporal studies.
