Mer

Merfolk are sentient, piscean humanoids. They're fish-like and often live in open ocean.

## Biology

Merfolk have large, webbed ears with four digits and a thumb. Their skin tones are pale to dark. Their hair colors are ?. Their eye colors are ?; while their eyes themselves have larger pupils. They have fish-like tails where legs would otherwise be, as well as pronounced canines and claws. They have fins along their forearms, spine, hips, and lower tail. Their gills are underneath their jaws. They do not possess nipples, the females' breast sizes not going over a B-cup.

Their length is between 10ft/3m to 13ft/4m, while their weight is between 220lbs/100kg to 240lbs/109kg. Their dichotomy is even.

They spawn eggs in sacs of two to six. The calves take twelve months to hatch. They come of age at fifteen and have an average lifespan of sixty.

## Abilities

Merfolk are able to naturally cast magick. They often use this to ward off predators or to create water walls.

## History

Merfolk have long since reined in the light, numerous tales written about romances between them and humans. They themselves are a romantic people with vast archives of literature, ornate architecture, and fine jewelry.

## Culture

Their origins are placed in the Hellenic region of Gaia, which would be evident by the fact that they speak Palaimat. Their homeland in the Viaprundul Galaxy is in ?.

There is no mer deity.

They view sexuality as fluid. They view other races as outsiders wishing to harm them. They view afflictions as forces to balance with.

## Trivia

* Known in English as mermaidens/mermen/merfolk, the name is originally derived from Gaelic merrow. They're creatures with human torsos and have a fish tail from the hips down instead of legs. The earliest known mer legends come from Syria around 1000 BCE where the Syrian goddess, Atargatis (uh-tar-gah-tis, I think), dove into a lake to take the form of a fish, but the powers there wouldn't allow her to give up her great beauty, so only her bottom half became a fish, while her top half stayed human. Throughout time, these creatures have been mistaken for sirens and have become symbols of great beauty.

Mer (murr) are absolutely splashing.

Salem Carter

Template:Charrie

## Appearance

He has dark skin, hazel eyes, a dark green hoodie, ripped jeans, a raccoon mask, and a raccoon tail on his belt.

## Kin

Unknown family, Kolton Andres (ex boyfriend), Honky Tonk (best friend)

## Backstory

Salem Carter was a man well known to the cops and for his thievish and destructive nature since he has been since he was 13R. He had to steal to help support his mother and two sisters since they were homeless. He was nicknamed Coonboy by them because of this. Finding amusement in the sobriquet, he crafted himself a raccoon mask and hung a raccoon tail from his belt.

Despite being a raccoon, he was also a jailbird. He's in and out of prison every few years. When the cops catch him, he usually doesn't run because he's afraid of getting shot at since he has been in the past and because you're not supposed to run.

He joined The Rattlers when he was 18R.

When he was 20R, he attempted to rob a bank, but ran into Honky Tonk setting up his own gear, so they robbed it together and became best friends ever since.

Kolton got back in contact with Salem when he was 27R. They lost track of time in clouds of pot in jail. When they got out two years later, Marty Reiber had interfered when they both realized that he was stoned while cheating on Kolton at a party in Gangito, Arvalanch.

## Backstory

Firstborn to Beolynn herself, Irmogen was imbued with the greatest power. Caretaker to the stars and the celestial bodies, she wears a mask of gold to protect herself from the dangerous rays of the many suns she passes every day. She works in turn with her brother to ensure stellar balance. Together, they create night and day.

Or so the tales have foretold. Irmuska Kóbor was born to a saccitorean tribe around 25AR, as she was a young adult when they uptook a nomadic lifestyle.

## Trivia

* In Nagombe, Irmuska means "star watcher", while Irmogen means "star maiden".
* Her new name Irmuska (ear-moosh-kaw) is a rare Hungarian diminutive of Irma, a European name derived from *ermen* (Germanic; whole, universal). Her surname Kóbor means "wanderer, ranger" in Hungarian and was once common amongst saccitors.
* Her old name was after Imogen from the Ascendance Trilogy. The name itself is known to be a Shakespearean princess in *Cymbeline* (1609). He based her on Innogen, a character of legends, although the name was printed incorrectly and never corrected. Innogen is presumably derived from *inghean* (Gaelic; maiden).
* #Co+nfirmed maid o+f space
* In early development, the deity fraternal twins surrounding the sun and moon were Solas and Nyxiros.
Petra Takala

Template:Charrie

## Backstory

Petrasiela Takala was born in the deep forests of Naddus to a couple who had been trying for years. Her exact birthday is unknown, however it was in spring of the mid-thirteenth century. She grew up learning how to hunt, how to track animals.

When she was fifteen

## Trivia

* In early drafts, she was a mortal named Rocky Smith.
* Her forename Petrasiela is composed of petra and siela. Petra is the German feminine form of Peter, which is derived from petros (Greek Πετρος; stone). Siela is derived from sielu (Finnish; soul) and seele (German; soul).
* Her surname Takala is derived from taka (Finnish; rear), as in "dweller in the back" to denote someone who lived in a remote area.
Phantoms

## IRL

The word 'phantom' is associated with the Phantom Of The Opera and a figment of the imagination, so I can't really find any mythology, besides just being a synonym for ghost. So I've turned to 'shadow people'.

A shadow person/figure/being/black mass is the perception of a patch of shadow as a living, humanoid figure, particularly as interpreted by believers in the paranormal or supernatural as the presence of a spirit or other entity.

## In Beolynn

The most common cases of people turning into phantoms after death are burn victims, loners, the insane, and the mutilated. They appear as purely black opaque ghosts with white eyes and mouths, almost like silhouettes.

Skiamancers are known for creating their own phantoms to instill delirium in opponents.
World Nunchaku Association

The **World Nunchaku Association** (WNA) promotes the sport of nunchaku-do around the globe and has branches in many countries. To clearly distinguish nunchaku-do from other nunchaku sports, it is sometimes referred to as “WNA nunchaku-do” or “WNA style nunchaku”.

Official website: www.nunchaku.org

"Nunchaku-do is a young martial art which focuses exclusively on the nunchaku; a centuries-old weapon made famous by Bruce Lee.
The nunchaku is the foundation on which the sport is built. Its modern day incarnation: the safety nunchaku, makes it possible for two fighters to safely and legally engage each other in the duels that make up the most popular part of nunchaku-do: Kumite."
Paradoxika

"The headmagister of the 1800s to 1900s was my father, Djovar Skeggstad. I'm from his first wife, preferring her surname to his." She held a look of contempt. "I took office as headmagister the winter of 1951. It was then that I made the academy less prestigious. Education is more important to me than reputation."

Fast forward to 1108AR. Paradoxika was founded as an academic guild. Every headmagister passed it onto their eldest when the time came. The headmagister of the 1800s AR to 1900s AR was Djovar Skeggstad, a dark elf.

He had a daughter from his first wife, Sicily. She preferred her mother's surname, Wyntr. She became the youngest headmagister at eighteen, taking rein in late 1951.

* The character in of itself is my oldest, as his totem is based on one of my old triceratops toys that I turned into a dragon via paper and electrical tape.
Oskar Jarl

## Appearance

He has pale skin, slicked black hair, red bolder opal eyes, a triangle goatee, a thin face, thin lips, shark-like teeth, pointed ears with flesh-like twigs coming off them, sharp black painted nails, a black wide brimmed fedora with a band made of leaves, a necklace made of grass, a scoop neck brown tunic, a simple green ripped tailcoat, a black belt with a white flower buckle, and black skinny jeans covered in holes.

## Quote(s)

* Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the biggest fool of them all? It must be the boy who can't stop crying, or perhaps it's the girl who kept on trying.

## Backstory

Oskar Jarl was born in the spring, having grown up in the Lairanan swamps. His parents were happily married, bickering like best friends occasionally. He quickly learned how to track and hunt, finding comfort in the ancient ways of musical charms. While his parents acted as the typical predator, Oskar's prey crawled right to him. They were proud of him for staying true to their culture. When Oskar was 18H, he proposed to a woman he had been enamored by for years. Curious to prove himself, she enacted the traditional hunting contest. Inevitably losing the contest and a testicle, he became a recluse out of shame.

Coming across a young runaway, Oskar quickly realized who Donna's family was. Curious to keep her for ransom, he

## Trivia

* The spelling of his forename used to be Ozkarr, but was changed because I have an obsession with vibrative consonants. Oskar is also a Nordic/Slavic spelling of Oscar, a name possibly derived Gaelic os/deer and cara/friend.
* His surname Jarl is Old Norse, as a jarl was akin to a central European lord or chief.
* His eyes used to be pure white and glow before I changed such variables to be deitic.
Bovitaurs

B
ovitaurs */boah-vih-tars/* came in two breeds.

## Biology

Bovitaurs had the body of a bovine with a humanoid torso sprung from the neck. They have bovine-like noses, thick tongues, and conical ears. Both sexes had horns. Women did not have utters or otherwise lower teats due to having breasts on their humanoid half. Men were predominantly taller and heavier with larger horns. Pregnancy lasted 8mo, came of age at 7yrs, and had a lifespan of 30yrs.

Fair :fair\_skin: to umber :umber\_skin: `Hair:` Black, brown, blonde, red `Eyes:` Brown, blue, green

### Pinedust

Pinedust bovitaurs were akin to wild bovids.

## Society

### Culture

* Their patron was Sluaghadh, god of agriculture and botamancy.

## History

Early bovitaur populations were not treated equally as other races. They were hunted like cattle with little regard.

Mylings

## IRL

Madame Macabre has a video about this.

```
A myling is a child that was abandoned in a remote area by their parents because they were unable to care for them or simply because they were unwanted. The infants were left to die, often within hours of their birth. They wander the forests, wailing for someone to bring them to a graveyard for a proper burial. If you pick one up to bring them to a graveyard, their weight will increase as their impatience does. At some point, they will become so heavy, they will be able to snap your neck to run or eat you.

```

```
In Finnish, mylings are called *utburds* (oot-birds; that which is outside) in reference to the unspoken family practice of infanticide. *Hansel And Gretel* has slivers of truth within it, as infanticide was once a globally committed practice. In some cultures, a majority of mylings were female, as it was archaically believed they were of less use compared to males. Realistically, either sex is just as useful and useless as the other.

```

In Scandinavian folklore, botchlings share similarities with mylings, as they're denied the peace of death because of the trauma of being discarded or aborted without burial or a given name. Botchlings hunt at night for expectant mothers, looking to enfeeble her and drain the fetus of its strength. After several successful attacks, when the mother is too weak to defend herself, the botchling violently assaults her, sucking her and the fetus’ blood until both perish.

Slavic mythology has a similar spirit known as the drekavac. Its bloodcurdling screams are comparable to that of the banshee.

Filipino mythology has the Tikbalang/Tigbalang/Tigbalan/Tikbalan, the angry spirit of an aborted baby. I'm unsure if this refers to aborted fetuses or abandoned infants. They appear as humans with horse heads and legs long enough to go above their ears when they sit down.

## In Beolynn

A myling is child of any race that was left to die in a remote area by their parents for various reasons. Their abandonment typically occurs within hours of their birth, the soil corrupting their bodies with myling's disease. They wander and wail, waiting for someone to pick them up to bring them to a graveyard for proper burial. Once in the arms of an adult, their weight increases with their impatience. At some point, their weight will become unbearable, being able to snap your neck and flee or devour you.

Their bodies appear to be melted, as if physically representing their sadness.

Rita Hramsaeg

## Kin

Unnamed family, Myridian Rasmussen (stepsister)

## Trivia

* Her name is a combination of Roxanna (dawn/light) and Rita (short for Italian Margarita, Margaret meaning pearl), both of which have Greek usage/meanings. Rita was after either Rita Skeeter or Rita from 'Flushed Away'. Presumably both. I cannot recall. Jiako is a combination of beautiful and small, I think, in Chinese.
* Her surname used to be Davison. It was either due to Harley Davidson or Vechs Davion. It was changed to Ruan, as it's a Chinese surname after the instrument.
Sphinxes

## IRL

A sphinx has tight origins between Greece and Egypt, as the two influenced each other quite a bit. The daughter of Orthus, and either Echidna or Chimera, was the only sphinx considered to exist in Greek mythology. She had the body of a lion, a human head, the wings of an eagle, and in some tales, the breasts of a woman and the tail of a snake. Geez, they really loved their snake tailed lions, huh? According to the myth, she dwelt outside the city of Thebes, and asked a riddle to all travelers, in order to let them pass.

Sphinxes is the English plural, while I do believe that sphinges is the Greek plural. I'm more preferable to -xes than -ges since it sounds more pleasing.

Lamassu and Narasimha are both similar to the sphinx.

## In Beolynn

A sphinx is a sentient creature with a lion's body, a human-like face, large bird-like wings, feathers on their elbows, and the males have elaborate manes.

## Stereotypes

They like riddles, mockery, and are over-dramatic sore losers.

## Trivia

Sphinxes (spheenx-ez) are the riddles, the puzzles, the masters of the game only known to them.

⭐ `Appearance:` They have feliform bodies, deep chests, semi-short legs, long tails with a tuft on the end, polydactyl thumbs on their front paws, longer necks, humanoid faces, broad noses with a cat-like shape, cat-like lips, and conical furred ears.

Marceline Wyntr

Template:Charrie

## Appearance

She has black hair with faint blonde streaks, a front bob back buzz, dark turquoise eyes, a muscular lithe body, a thin face, a full iron breastplate, leather fingerless gloves, iron trousers, leather boots with iron plates, two right helixes, gold studs, and a demonic horned helmet with an angelic sigil.

## Kin

Autumn Knight (blood mother), Vincent Knight (blood father)

Sicily Wyntr (adopted mother)

## Backstory

The long lost nephalem daughter of Autumn and Vincent Knight, Marceline was adopted by dark elven magess Sicily Wyntr after she came across a smoldering village in the cold winter night.

She raised the hybraby, unknowing of her bloodline. Years passed into teenagehood and the magess taught Marceline many branches of magick and swordsmanship. She became powerful in her own way, teaching many things to her adopted mother as well.
Sumati Mhasalkar

S
umati Mhasalkar */soo-MAH-tee mhah-SAL-kar/* was the owner of the Mangey Mare Bar.

## Appearance

She had beige skin with yellow undertones, blonde hair (waist length, braided), blue eyes (monolids, yellow scleras), a thinnish face, ear tip tufts, long black claws, digitigrade legs, pawed feet, and a long tail (tuft tip, black border with blonde).

She wore a black t-shirt, jeans, black leather boots, and double lobe piercings (silver studs).

Her voice was medium-toned, with her accent being gently Galiralese.

## Personality

Lyudmila was a cynic, often responding with vulgarity, sarcasm, or otherwise dark humor. But she cared about the common denominator. She kept her word, and was patient. She was considered the quiet lesbian who could cut someone with a glare. Not brooding, no. Simply disinterested in conversation.

She preferred having some way to hide her face. She also found comfort in storms and darkness, being left alone to her own devices. She wasn't too fond of being touched.

What little free time she had, she spent it indulging in her extensive knowledge of movies and acting. She wanted to be an actress when she was little, but abandoned it in favor of "being realistic".

## Abilities

Her totem was red, though she had not discovered her beast. Her family crest was equines, however. She was taught botamancy by her mother and grandmother, later specializing in skiamancy to better enhance her stealth.

She was trained in mixed martial arts and blades. She preferred using a karambit with throwing knives.

## History

Sumati Mhasalkar was born on an unknown date.
Poltergeists

## IRL

In German legend, a poltergeist is a noisy ghost whose name means exactly that. They're able to affect the physical world, moving and knocking over objects.

English banshee, Irish bean shé (bahn-shay), Scottish caoineag (kon-yack), Welsh cyhyraeth (ker-herri-ghth), is a female spirit whose wailing warns of an impending death. They feed off of sadness.

## In Beolynn

Selkies

## IRL

Selkie, also spelled silkies, sylkies, selchies, is simply the Orcadian dialect word for "seal". They're mythological creatures found in Scottish, Irish, and Faroese folklore. Similar creatures are described in the Icelandic traditions. Selkies are said to live as seals in the sea, but shed their skin to become humans on land. They rely on the skin to return to sea and can't shift back into a seal if the skin is lost.

## In Beolynn

Selkies are born with the ability to shapeshift between a pinniped and a humanoid form. They do so by shedding their pinniped skin or putting it back on like a pair of pants. They may be compared to therianthropes in the nature of their shapeshifting, except half of their spirit is in their pinniped heart. The other half is in their humanoid heart. This is why selkies may feel empty or not quite themselves when in humanoid form without their skin. If they lose their skin, they can't return to their pinniped form. They can be any kind of pinniped.

In their humanoid form, they have pale to dark chocolate skin tones; blonde, brown, black, ginger hair colors; and blue, brown, and green eye colors. Their ears are small and flap-like, while their eyes have white scleras and large rounded black pupils. They have clawed fingers, rounded eyebrows, skin that feels rubbery, and a thick yet downy layer of fuzz covering nearly their entire bodies.

## History & Culture

### Age

Selkies come of age at twenty and have an average lifespan of forty. To convert a human age to a real age, you multiply it by 1.2, then round. Visa versa, but divide. Roughly, it's about two human year for every one real year. Here's some example ages:
Oshekh

In CNDL, Mack is the resident tattooist. He often uses the back of the ranger's office as his parlor.

Nikosio Malinovsky was born on the 16th of Sunhigh, 1929AR in west Naddus to low class parents. His childhood was difficult, to say the least. His mother was arrested for drug trafficking when he was young, while his father sent him to his grandfather's for protection. He grew up among the Naddusan mafia. Not much else is known about him, as he tenses up when inquired. His death, while the cause is unknown, was on the 2nd of Duskdown, 1950AR.

## Trivia

* His forename Nikosio is derived from niki (Greek; victory) and siopi (Greek; silence). His surname Malinovsky is Russian and means crimson.
Palaemat

## History

Palaimat (pah-lie-mat) is a language spoken by species hailing from the Greek region. It has a sign variant called PSL. It uses a Hellenic alphabet.

While all deities are from different regions, it was agreed upon for Palaimat to be the common language amongst them. Its age and the sheer population of speakers made it a strong contender.

## Trivia

* Initially, Ordava was created with Greek and Chinese. The Migration Overhaul changed it to strictly Greek, renaming it Palaimat.
* Palaimon is a mortal-god whose name means wrestler. He has no association with the language.

Palaemat (pah-lay-mat) is known for its breathy and gutteral nature.

Wendigoag

## IRL

The wendigo/windigo/windego (plural: wendigoag) is a demonic spirit believed by Algonquin-based Native American tribes to possess humans and turn them into cannibals. The term is used to describe both the evil spirit and the creature that humans can become when possessed by the spirit.

The creature has an unending hunger that craves only human flesh. If all of these creatures only crave human flesh, are the rest of the races safe then?

The wendigo and the Jersey Devil are similar to me and I wonder if the latter is the modern interpretation of the former? Madame Macabre has a neat video on them.

## In Beolynn

The wendigo is a gaunt humanoid deer reaching 14'8"/4.5m. Its face is exposed to bone with two sets of glowing eyes, sharp saber teeth, a long tongue, long clawed arms that touch the ground, exposed organs frozen to its body, rotting skin, matted fur, and a stench of putrid meat.

## Trivia

* *Until Dawn* is a horror game that features wendigoag as its antagonists, though their wendigoag looks more like Lord Of The Ring's Gollum.

Ophiotavros

## IRL

Ophiotauros (Οφιοταυρος: Serpent-bull) was a Greek monster born to Gaia and slain by Aegaeon during the titan wars. They wanted to sacrifice it to ensure victory against Zeus. Zeus' birds stole its intestines, sending it to the stars to become the constellation Taurus.

Beolynnian ophiotauri are based on gaurs, aliased Indian bison.

## In Beolynn

Ophiotauri (singular: ophiotaurus) are bovine, but from the hips down are snakes. They move much like lindwurms do, dragging and slithering themselves across the ground. Their diet is omnivorous in nature, eating grasses and insects. As such, they have small snake-like canines and bovine-like molars.

Cows are smaller than bulls, breeding like snakes and laying eggs that hatch premature young. Cows don't have utters, as the young are more reptilian in this sense. Bull horns curve downwards with a second set atop that curl upwards, creating a shape like a three. Their muzzles have reptilian plates on the bridge, while another plate goes from their necks to their hips to meet with their tails.

Calfless cows and steer are docile and curious creatures, but it's still warned to be careful near them. Cows with calves and bulls are aggressive, especially with cows in heat near.

## Stereotypes

All ophiotauri are docile, regardless of variables.

## Trivia

* Cows are female bovine, bulls are intact male bovine, steer are castrated male bovines, and calves are young bovine of either sex.

Zawładnięci

### Opis

Szesnastoletnia Vi mieszka w świecie kontrolowanym przez Tych-Od-Myślenia, ale już dawno odłączyła się od ich transmisji. Najbardziej zależy jej na narzeczonym Zennie, dla którego łamię zasadę Dobrych Ziemi, czego konsekwencją jest zabranie Violet do więzienia. To nie był jej pierwszy wybryk. Dziewczyna zostaje zamknięta w jednej celi z mieszkańcem Złych Ziemi, Jagiem. Z początku jest do niego wrogo nastawiona, nie rozumie zachowań chłopaka i za wszelką cenę chcę uciec z wiezienia.

Okazuje się, że Vi nie jest zwykłą dziewczyną, gdy siłą woli zmusza elektroniczne kajdany, by same zsunęły jej się z rąk. Umiejętności Violet pozwalają jej i Jagowi, do którego z każdą chwilą coraz bardziej się przekonuje, na ucieczkę. Nawet wtedy nie pozostają zupełnie wolni, jedyną szansą na normalne życie jest Przymorze. Najtrudniejsze pozostaje dotarcie do celu.
Nagombe

## History

Nagombe (nah-goam-bee) is a language spoken by species hailing from the African region. Many dialects exist, given the size of the country. A sign variant exists called NSL. It uses a Ge'ez alphabet.

* The language was originally called Yzarca before being renamed to Yzarbe. Hungarian and Swahili was used, although Hungarian Sign Language was used for signing. The Migration Overhaul renamed it Nagombe to strictly be Swahili.

Nagombe (nah-goam-be) is known for its rhythmic and harsh nature.

## Kin

Unnamed family, Tanner Vermiculus (best friend)

## Quote(s)

* Why are people so quick to fear change, to fear what is new, to fear what is different? I honestly *don't* understandand I wish *dearly* to be able to.
* If I had not have made Kaja, would things be different?

## Backstory

Xaphan was born Napax Dreher to a highly successful inventor and scientist in 1559. As a teenager, he followed in his father's footsteps, who died when he was sixteen. He died six years later with a criminalistic reputation due to being overrun by a mob because of a creation he had made that took many lives, despite her size.

In undeath, he continued inventing and met his best friend, Tanner Vermiculus, in 1585. It's also the same year that the Thandopi Revolution began.
Perytons

## IRL

The peryton was created and described by Argentinean author Jorge Luis Borges in his *Book Of Imaginary Beings*. He supposedly used a long-lost medieval manuscript as a source. According to Borges, perytons lived in Atlantis until an earthquake destroyed the civilization, the creatures escaping using their bird-like wings. The creatures' shadows cast that of a man until it kills one, then its true shadow is shown. In ancient Rome, a sibyl once prophesied that perytons would lead to the downfall of the great city.

Research for them was difficult because every single one of my sources repeated this like a small child.

## In Beolynn

At 3.2qu (3 ft/91 cm) tall, the peryton is an herbivorous beast low on the food chain. They have bird-like bodies with muntjac deer-like pelts, hind legs like birds, didactyl toes,

Perytons are omnivorous creatures with small wings and bird-like torsos, but are otherwise deer-like.

## Trivia

* Peritonitis (pear-ee-ton-eye-tis) is inflammation of the membrane lining the abdominal wall covering abdominal organs.
* Due to the presumably Greek origins of perytons, it's most likely that the tales refer to red deer. I still prefer muntjacs.
Ussimarr

Template:Charrie

* Why is Vevian seen as the crazy one? I deserve that title! Me, not her! Me!

## Trivia

* Ussimarr being genderfluid was inspired by *Split*, a 2016 thriller/psychological horror.
* Elder Scroll's Sheogorath was partial inspiration for their temperament.
* Vevian was originally the insane one with Ussimarr being the sane one, but it was switched when I realized the implications and problems.

Yorsten

## Appearance

He has tan skin, a darker farmer's tan, curly dark brown hair, a small beard, a short sleeve low-cut tunic, cloth pants, leather ren boots with curled toes, and an oil lantern hanging from an oversized leather belt. He has a thick Russian accent.

## Kin

Beolynn (lore mother), Orealis (twin sister), Midonius (lover)

## Backstory

Yorsten and Orealis were born as the second generation of deities. As little Yorsten crawled about, he came across some sticks, stones, and vines. Beolynn aided him in creating tools. As he grew older, he carved a mighty forge in Naddus at the top of a mountain, now known as the Frost Grizzine Forge. Most of the other deities' weapons and tools were born from these fires.

The most common client of his was Midonius. Being the god of war, he went through plenty of weapons, purposely never asking Yorsten to make him something indestructible so they could talk more.

They eventually fell in love. Nobody else expected it, but they were accepting.

## Trivia

* His homosexuality is somewhat based on the fact that at least one twin in a pair ends up gay.
* Yorsten is a combination of yore and Sten (Old Norse steinn; stone). His name essentially means ancient stone.
* Yorsten was inspired by stereotypes of dwarves being amazing blacksmiths and Hephaestus, the Greek god of metalworking, among other things.
