watchers
Watchers were in a light sleep when Istopia was born, so they woke up first. This made them excellent catchers of signals and seers of change. Of all Istotas, they are the most connected to your story; they are the why beneath your thoughts, feelings, and doings. When something happens in your world, Watchers see it – that's how you know something happened.
​
There are 9 Watchers, each with a specific focus. For example, R wants you to feel rested. When you’ve had a long day, R will look for calm spots, soft blankets, and warm tea. R knows where to find comfort. Id keeps an eye on your style, how you present yourself to the world. Id makes sure your personality shines through.
