Oiá:ner, also known as the Clan Mother, was the leader of the Kanien'kehá:ka village of Kanatahséton. She and the other Kanien'kehá:ka in the village served as protectors of the sacred ground on which both their village and the Grand Temple stood. Oiá:ner was also the keeper of the village's Crystal Ball.[1]
Biography
In 1769, Oiá:ner showed Kanatahséton's Crystal Ball to Ratonhnhaké:ton upon his return from a hunt and allowed him to interact with it. The Crystal Ball forced him into the Nexus, where he communicated with Juno and learned of his destiny with the Assassins.[1]
Many years later, the Clan Mother met with an adult Ratonhnhaké:ton and told him of the whereabouts of Kanen'tó:kon and other Kanien'kehá:ka men, who were attempting to attack the Continental soldiers.[1]
Some time following Kanen'tó:kon's death, Oiá:ner spoke with Ratonhnaké:ton once more, where she revealed to him that she planned to move their people to the west to avoid the American Revolutionary War, like many of the other nations had been doing. After his unpleasant reaction, she told him that she would do what was best for her people, to which Ratonhnaké:ton left the village. On his return some years later, he found the village deserted save for an old vagabond, who told him that his people had already gone.[1]
Alternate timeline
In a timeline conjured up by an Apple of Eden, Oiá:ner was also the Clan Mother of the Kanatahséton village. However, instead of being concerned with pacifistic protection of their lands, it was her who encouraged the people to resist King Washington's army.[2]
In this regard, Oiá:ner suggested that Ratonhnhaké:ton drink the Red Willow tea to give him the power to defeat King Washington, against Kaniehtí:io's wishes. The Clan Mother also led the Native resistance against the tyrant, however, despite her aims to safeguard her village by combating the threat, Oiá:ner and her fellow villagers were killed in a Bluecoat raid.[2]
