A statue of Periki in Periki's Overlook
Periki was a whaler, explorer, and one of the many guildmasters of the Watershapers Guild. She is credited for the revitalization of the watershapers in 2801 AI, and the founding of their school and headquarters, the aptly-named Watershapers Guild, in an area now known as Periki's Overlook.
Background
Periki organized the lore of Ngati's talent into a series of postures and meditations called the "Four Forms of Watershaping". Many of the modern teachings of watershaping stem from her research into ancient Huana society, which led to her posthumous renown and the subsequent naming of her home district in Neketaka as Periki's Overlook.
