Prepare to be immersed in its ancient lore, vibrant cultures, and untold mysteries. Your journey into the heart of a new realm begins with some important information. Please note: this site will evolve as the series progresses
Their Orb was created hundreds of thousands of years ago by an entity known as Elyon. A being who, when manifests, does so differently accordingly to each situation or beholder. Current humanoid inhabitants no longer remember him at all.
A hundred thousand years ago, great beasts walked the orb. Sadly, most are now only known through myth or legend, though something stirs beneath the surface. Ancient beings are reawakening.
Over five Generations of humanoid creatures now roam the orb. Many do not remember these creatures. For those that do, their memories are now vague and cloudy at best.
A unique substance called equanime is present in all things on their orb. In living creatures it runs through them like a secondary vascular system, nestling neatly beside their blood supply. In objects just as rock, it's present in a solidified, crystalline form. It is also present in the soil, trees - everything.
This substance can be utilised in many ways. The first three generations can commune with nature and animals, though nature has presently closed it's mind.
The first two generations can also use their equanime to heal creatures wounds, and all generations can discharge a devastating beam that can be destructive upon impact. The equanime within a humanoid body enables them to heal themselves swiftly. Those who have learnt, can utilise their equanime to enact enchantments or perform alchemy. Masters in the art of sorcery and alchemy are few now - it having been banned around thirty thousand years ago. Cray Academy maintains these learned traditions.
