Lord Kelvin

Lord Kelvin, nicknamed “Bill,” is an Eidolon based on William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin, the physicist who developed the absolute temperature scale. This Eidolon specializes in investigating the nature of heat and cold.

Abilities

Thermodynamic Analysis

Lord Kelvin can analyze the nature of cold and heat in environments, distinguishing between natural phenomena and artificial generation. He conducts experiments by freezing and unfreezing subjects to study thermal properties.

Scientific Knowledge

Lord Kelvin possesses knowledge of thermodynamics, explaining concepts such as the historical understanding that cold was once merely the absence of heat rather than existing in itself. He can theorize about the sources and mechanisms behind unusual thermal phenomena.

Timeline

393 AC - Investigating Storvhit’s Cold

Lord Kelvin conducted experiments at Storvhit by freezing and liberating Mushs, concluding that the region’s cold was artificial and being generated by something rather than forming naturally around an anchored idea like a typical Oasis.
