Trenchstalker

## Lore

Back in the 1st age of mortal, the vile entities known as the Blessed Children roamed free. Appointed gods of the land by the All-Mother herself, the positions of power immediately took over them and they evolved into vindictive wicked deities. The 13 Blessed Children terrorized those beneath, instating a cruel reign over the first lands.

Trenchstalker was one of those who flourished in this chaotic state of the world, a servant of one of the Blessed Children, he would terrorize the open ocean in the name of his god. Nowhere on the endless blue was out of his grasp, as sailors and fisherman would be painted pale at the mere thought of entering his domain. Raiding and sinking ships, for treasures or simply for the hell of it, the Trenchstalker slaughtered hundreds of innocents. Not just in the name of his god, but because he could. It was just his nature as to him, they were simply below him. Various little nicknacks and play things for him to exercise his control over.

When the reign of the blessed children was thwarted and the gods were put down in the battle of the first lands, the supporters of them were also prosecuted. Trenchstalker was no such exception, trialed for his crimes and sentenced to execution, he was slain and his corpse thrown into the ocean to be lost to time.

And lost to time he was, for there he sat for millennia. Buried in the deepest parts of the sea, as the world passed by around him. This was until the Arklight shattered. When the Arklight shattered the walls of reality, sending the entire grand design into disarray, he was abruptly awoken from the dead.

With his rebirth, all the emotions and memories flooded back into him like a thousand electric shocks surged through his body. Once again given corporeal form, he was filled with madness over his death and defeat at the hands of those that he dominated over for years. He rose up from his watery grave and emerged from the depths to a small fishing port. Destroying it in a matter of minutes, turning those who stood in his way into nothing more than memories, the madness of his death still rang strong in his head. A few surrendered themselves immediately in the face of such might, pleading to the leviathan what he wanted. "I, the Trenchstalker have returned, and while the world may have forgotten me, I have not forgotten. And for that, this world shall know revenge".

Bryza

Joins the army to fit in lessen the judgement of her peers and find purpose. Leading her into difficult conflicts when the Anrusha civil war begins as she is forced to choose between her blood relatives or her new family.

## Lore

**>> Bryza becomes unsure of whether to side with her birth family or adoptive family admist a civil conflict between both sides.**

### Backstory

At birth, Bryza's egg was abandoned by her parents. Born as a mistake, her egg had been tossed away unwanted. When her egg hatched, she found herself on the other side of the border seperating the nations of Balrusha and Puerusha, far from any other harpies. Raised in an orphanage in Puerusha, Bryza grew up amongst the Settlers and became indoctrinated into their ways.

Despite being born in the country and practicing the same customs as the Settlers, she never truly felt like one of them. So when she was of age, she enlisted herself in the Puerushan army in an attempt to make people judge herself less and give herself a bigger sense of belonging, helping to further the nation's cause. In the army, Bryza developed a close friendship with Valorei. Both driven in their military pursuits, they led the Puerushan forces through many successful missions. However, across her career, Bryza had never gone on a mission against the harpies of Balrusha, being needed elsewhere

But thanks to the Arklight's destruction, the native harpy and Settler conflict was being pushed to its limits. Inciting the Anrusha civil war, Bryza was finally sent off on missions to deal with the natives and subjugate them. Despite the country's heavy indoctrination into their causes, Bryza's heart grew cloudy as she had to put down others who looked just like her. All of this lead to mixed feelings building up inside her, unsure how to process them as she was torn between siding with her blood relatives, or her new adoptive family despite their actions.

### Recent Events

In a recent mission, Bryza lets a group of harpy fighters flee after they taunt her for being a pawn for the true enemy, and a traitor against her own kind. Valorei doesn't take this failure too kindly and the two friends are put at odds, with their clashing ideals.

He has a strong sense of right and wrong, yelling at his mother for killing the royals.

Cala Nath

Cala Nath (Midjourney AI generated concept art)

Cala Nath is one of the major regions on the planet Aefex and is the location of a massive tree, that seems to contradict the rules of the Grand Design itself.

## Description

Cala Nath is a region created by Zalynx off of the shore of the main continent. The entire region exists on top of the world tree created by his genesis seed, with the tree's leaves reaching as high as the clouds. The denizens of Cala Nath live in tree houses scattered all across the branches, with various rope bridges connecting them together. The further inwards and downwards you head into the branches the less light there is, with the lower parts of the tree being more swampy in its biome, mixing with the saltwater and the uprooted stone and mud from the initial formation. Not many live here as a result, with most of the habital locations being towards the top of the tree.

## Lore

The grounds where Cala Nath would stand were initially just small islands, with mundane fanau and flora. Zalynx used these grounds as the initial basis for his experimentations, out of the prying eyes of his peers in the Arcanist Conclave. With the power of the genesis seed, the intense amounts of nature magic released from the seed was so incredibly suffocating, the world tree that grew devoured the whole island its place.

After the massive world tree was established, Zalynx proclaimed to the world on the magnificence of his creation, establishing a new region on the map. Many flocked to Cala Nath to rever the seemingly godlike powers coming from a mere mortal, with the promise of a better life for them under his rule and protection. After the Arklight's destruction, many more flocked to the isle looking for shelter from the now shattered world.

## Flora & Fauna

Due to the island's isolation and vertical nature, many of the fauna species on this island have suffered from insular dwarfism as they have needed to adapt. The island's indigenous species are mainly creatures that were swallowed up and consumed by the mass amounts of nature magic that was set off by the initial activation of the genesis seed, and as such are rather unique, sharing very little resemblence to their mainland relatives. There also exists a fair amount of species brought over by new settlers for various purposes.

One of the most common plants found in Cala Nath is the Tanglebloom. Due to its high magical potential, it is also one of Cala Nath's major exports, as despite its abundance on the world tree, it is impossible to find elsewhere.

## Miscellaneous

Cala Nath was the youngest region as it was created only 7 years before the Arklight's destruction. Cala Nath was dethroned from this position after the Arklight's destruction caused the establishment of New Risto, whom split off from Great Risto due to pursuing their religious beliefs alienated them from the rest of the Ristonians.
