Tekton

Tekton is a Mahlgroshun cursed into a gargoyle after a spell was placed on him. This curse is also a blessing, however, as he now commands

Tekton, a Xaemian once-man turned stone by curse of the Terra-Morpheus tribe, named Alexander. After turning to stone, he could not feel a thing, even happiness. He sits alone by the fire's edge, quiet, soulless. The only thing he knows is purpose. The curse gave him many abilities, but none could repay his stolen life. In the end, it is a living death. Little memories of his life remain, and his life has little memory of him too. It is unknown how long he will live before the curse consumes him entirely, but they estimate that he has only a few years before he becomes a hollow, lifeless statue.

The one known as Tekton the stone master was once a Xaemian man. He worked as a cartographer, exploring the hidden areas of the mountainous Xaemouth. He found himself on an expedition 8 years ago, when his life would change.

The Storyline

The story begins with a monologue, told by Qostiid, explaining the Everfall prophecy.

"There was once ten great beings who ruled over the Verse, of which we live in :

* Bloom UwU
* Nakthorius Owh
* Nihluria
* Melorinia
* Maziktoren
* Irkanshire
* Paraglox
* Oriphian (an orphan)
* Regimous
* Oddessy

Each ruled over an aspect of the Verse. For an age too long for comprehension there was balance, as always should. But all too common, balance failed. Not even the ten beings of Verse could hold themselves together.

Now there are only six. Nakthorius the destroyer fell from his position and started a battle. Most fled to further reaches. Maziktoren was lost and was buried on a world far away, where his knowledge lived on. Paraglox was lost to the stars, her fate remaining a mystery. Nakthorius was banished, but his followers lived on. They succeded in crippling Oriphian, who has now since faded.

The years since have been turbulent, but it is foretold that soon, at the end Nakthorius would return once more. An end yet to resolve. The Everfall prophecy is yet to reach its judgment. Should Nakthorius be defeated the Verse will return to stability for ever. Should the defenders lose, the Verse may fall. But the Everfall has just begun."

Tutorial AKA Day 0: With merely 10 minutes to go, the Yukisen Order races against the clock to stop the Everfall. Navigating the Temple of Nakthorious, Umbra take the lead. Through an intensive maze, trapped corridors and death rooms, they finally find the chamber, but they are too slow. The door crumbles, and dark mist spews out. Nakthorious is returned.

Day 1: A man stands in the centre of a circle of stone. The mist hides Nakthorious.

Disembodied Voice: "Freedom. I walk once more. Who is it who has set me free?"

Norfain Correton: "I, my lord. I am the one who set you free."

Disembodied Voice: "What is your name, soldier?"

Norfain Correton: "Norfain Correton, my lord."

Disembodied Voice: "Then I am in your debt. What do you ask in return, Norfain Correton?"

Norfain Correton: "Only that I may become the l may lead the Alkera once more."

Disembodied Voice: "Ah. You are of Alkera. I should have known. Very well."

Nakthorious extends his hand.

Disembodied Voice: "Come, and emerge Sesoiroto, leader of the Alkera."

They destroy the tomb and fly off.

Vinnessa: "**That** is Nakthorious UwU?? We're fukkin doomed doomed."
The beginning

The day is 32nd of Taswell, the end of a year. The time is 20:49, and in just over ten minutes, the countdown for the end of the world will begin. As people celebrate, three people are attempting to stop the countdown. Vinnessa Yukisen and Umbra Nihlborn, with the help of Qostiid the Guide, race through the temple of the verse. With minutes to go, the tutorial starts as you get to play as Vinnessa while running through traps galore. With moments to spare they finally come across the main chamber. But a powerful mechanical groan is heard as the three watches in horror. The door has opened. Nakthorious walks out a giant, towering over them, though they are not seen.

Nakthorious looks at the gods that stand before him.

Ierden, Verse of Creation: "Nakthorious, Verse of Destruction - The time has come. The verse reaches an end. Two minutes from now, the Everfall will begin. Choose your warriors."

Nakthorious, Verse of Destruction: "ALKERA! Your waiting is over. I have returned for the final year of judgement. Your servitude will be rewarded. Spread the word of my return."

Melorinia, Verse of Time: "Your army awaits at the gates of eternity. Go to the tower where you will find them, ready."

Nathorious, Verse of Destruction: "I thank you, Melorinia, Verse of Time."

Melorinia, Verse of Time: "As for the defenders, we have brought 3 of our agents already. They hear the words we say. Who is your agent?"

Nakthorious, Verse of Destruction: "Sesoiroto."

The Versial Gods

There were once ten great beings who existed. These ten each controlled an aspect of the verse. The verse of which we live in.

* Arkthorious the creator
* Nakthorious the destroyer
* Nihluria the void
* Melorinia the time weaver
* Maziktoren the inventor
* Irkanshire the mage
* Paraglox the spawner
* Oriphian the conceptualiser
* Regimous the reaper
* Oddessy the conscience

For an age too long for comprehension there was balance. But, as always, balance did not last forever. Not even the ten great beings of the verse could hold themselves together forever.

Now there are only six.

Nakthorious fell from his position, starting a war that almost tore reality apart.

Maziktoren was lost, buried in a world far away, where his knowledge lived on. Paraglox was lost to the stars, yet to return. Nakthorious was banished, but his followers remained, going on to cripple Oriphian, who has now since faded.

The ages since the war have been turbulent, but it is told soon

Chenmo Mungala

# Chenmo Mugala - The Knight of Silenced Moons

Chenmo Mungala (Translation - Silent, In the moonlight) is an Alvaslentashyan who was the cause of the devastation that was the Night of Silenced Moons.

## Life Story

### Birth

He was born at 20:37 on the 31st of Taswell, at the Vrepenri Tower, near Notefuiy. Merely seven seconds later, the moons would eclipse above and open the tower's portal. He was placed upon an altar at the centre.
Timothy Hughes

**Timothy Hughes** ist Heathers Ehemann, der sich schwer damit tut, in die Dynamik seiner Schwiegerfamilie zu finden. Er selbst hat eine Tendenz dazu, die falschen Dinge zur falschen Zeit zu sagen.

Der Schauspieler Dan Bakkedahl spielte die Rolle von 2015 bis 2019. Der Synchronsprecher war Uwe Büschken.
Gregory Russo

Gregory Russo is an old farmer who grows mushrooms in his basement. He was known in Roanoke as a rather sad old man. His wife was a soldier in the Gods’ War, and died more than a decade before, leaving Gregory to raise his two children, Olive and Derrick, the second of which had passed away due to an illness shortly after the Veil had been put in place, robbing Frederick of his powers. Driven mad with grief, Gregory and his daughter Olive joined forced forces with Anathema in a desperate attempt to bring Derrick back. They concocted a plan to kill the trio of townsfolk keeping Anathema's spirit trapped in the hopes her god would grant her the power to bring Derrick to life. Instead Anathema caused the destruction of the entire town, killing everyone there and trapping their spirits. For his part, Gregory was transformed into a kind of mushroom monster under the thrall of Anathema. He remained trapped this way until being freed by the BtA group, passing on his mushroom soup recipe to Koshi before finally dying.
Forgotten Grotto

The Forgotten Grotto, also known as the Grotto of the Fallen, is a formerly sealed area near Heaven's Nest. The grotto was originally encountered when the group was tasked with tracking the movement of a pack of wolves that had attacked the forbiddance the day prior. They stumbled upon the grotto by accident, the massive stone that had originally blocked the entrance terrifyingly split in twain with signs of corruption obvious from the outside.

The inside of the grotto revealed a grisly scene: a faction of druids had sealed themselves away from the undead and waited for help. Help that never came. When the crops failed to bloom (withered by the curse that had begun to kill the land) and supplies ran out, some of the desperate survivors snapped and began killing and eating the others. Eventually, they too died before being raised as ghouls. The leader of this faction, Festum, returned as a ghast. The victims faired little better, trapped as ghosts in a repeated cycle of memories, though they were freed from their cycle by Baosheng Shenyu and Montoya.

Sometime before the group appeared, the necromancer Miguel Desafiante broke open the entrance of the cave and reanimated the undead he found inside. He had them conduct a ceremony to Chemosh as well as help imprison the matriarch and children of a local pack of dire and ice wolves (prompting them to attack Heaven's Nest and weaken the forbiddance's defenses).

The Forgotten Grotto was finally returned to peace after the BtA group (with the assistance of Tadgh) was able to convince the ghosts to move on as well as kill all the ghouls inside. They returned the next day with a contingent of miners (this time accompanied by Heathersong), killed several ghouls that had been reanimated a \*second\* time, before burning the bodies and laying to rest all those within the Grotto. They likewise were able to free the wolves inside, with Montoya Cuervo then suggesting they take up residence in a nearby bear cave filled with bee hives.

### Notable npcs

* Grotto Ghosts:
	+ Ysabel
	+ Blaithin
	+ Cornelius
	+ Octavian

* Festum the ghast

* Consantoir
* The Ice Wolf matriarch
The Wicked Wort

Once the dryad Shanareen's tree, The Wicked Wort was corrupted with a fiendish nature by Maple in a bid to destroy the forbiddance Hardy Harvest. It was created by Maple in a plan concocted with the vampire Ulrich to destroy Hardy Harvest. The hope was that the Wicked Wort would create an army of wortlings to invade and destroy the town.

The plan was partially successful, The Wicked Wort \*did\* create a series of plant abominations, however it bided its time before striking to kill Maple (tearing her to shreds). It eventually did march on Hardy Harvest as well but Bones to Ash was able to route the army with the aid of the townsfolk (and nearby Shalun clan) and weaken the tree enough for Shanareen to take back control. It has now refused with the dryad and has since been cleansed of the demonic taint.

* fun fact: The Wicked Wort was "killed" by Inigo
* The Wicked Wort knocked Koshi to unconsciousness, being the first enemy to scar her
Shadar Kai

A species of elves, the Shadar Kai are known for being simultaneously cursed and blessed. Every Shadar Kai is subject to an individualized curse, crafted by Beshaba to be deeply ironic. For example, Stevfirakas, despite her incredible intellect, is doomed to speak in an "uwu" voice which constantly undermines her intelligence to those she is speaking to.

The origin of their curse is not known among the general populace, however the Shadar Kai's ancestors were followers of the goddess Tyche who betrayed her. The helped a New God split her in two, effectively killing her and creating the twin goddesses Beshaba and Tymora in the process. When the new gods were defeated, Beshaba inflicted all of the Shadar Kai with curses that were sure to lead to gruesome deaths. However, in a moment of mercy The Raven Queen lessened the power of Beshaba's curses and granted them minor blessings meant to help counteract what remained. In Stevi's case, she is blessed with flawless memory.

Unfortunately for the Shadar Kai, even with The Raven Queen's blessings they often fail to live as long as their fellow elves. In Immortuos, this has made the Shadar Kai especially unattractive prospects for artifacts.
Wavecrest Caravans

As a whole, The Caravans in Wavecrest are the lifeline of forbiddances, carrying the basics for survival to and from forbiddance to Central City and back. While technically a part of the military, caravans in Wavecrest are split between the jurisdiction of the Flores and Hidalgo families and are given greater individual freedom than in the other central cities.
Nozamara Shalundra

Nozamara is the leader of the caretakers located near Hardy Harvest. An honorable and savvy woman, Nozamara has the respect of her people and the fear of her enemies. The true extent of her abilities is unknown, however, Nyx speaks of her with the greatest of respect, and according to him—despite her calm and ageless appearance—she is an ancient and powerful practitioner of the Mark.

Raven Isle

The newest of the city-states, Raven Isle is a theocracy that was founded by a pilgrimage of Raven Queen followers. Seraph Delareina is one of its founding mothers.

### The Raven Guard

A signature feature of Raven Isle, the crème de la crème of their military forces become Raven Guard. The Raven Guard is the ultimate goal for many of the devoted in Raven Isle, with most caravanners joining out of a hope of advancing their career. All members of The Raven Guard are identified by their signature guns which are modeled to resemble the Raven Queen artifacts of Seraph Delareina: Thought and Memory.

The Raven Guard was originally established prior to the Raven Isle's establishment. Prior to becoming an integral part of Raven Isle, they were originally a neutral faction (much like Mark of the Shadow elves) and were incredibly dedicated to finding a way to end Chemosh's reign of terror. However 50 years ago, they felt that the 3 central cities had established enough of a foothold and decided to set off to the other Isle of Immortuos in a great pilgrimage of Raven Queen followers. Since then, they operate as the governing body of Raven Isle and have dedicated their efforts toward ekking out forbiddances there. Raven Guard members can still be found on the main island are a rare sight; generally they are there in service of or on orders from Raven Isle.
Brann Kreel

Brann Kreel, also known as Greenstaff, was a powerful wizard and the owner of The Wizard's Tower near Heaven's Nest.

How and when Brann died is unknown. What is known is that he seeks a worthy successor to his work from beyond the grave. To that end he has hidden his research within the tower, the building itself laid with a variety of magical traps overseen by a magical projection to test those within.

After passing the tower's tests, Brann's greatest work was revealed: his son Ben, a golem. Sensing his impending death, Brann had set up the traps as well as summoned the celestial Quetz and the gauth Ignatius to ensure that only the kind and worthy would be able to reach his child.

### Trivia

- Based on the available research in his tower, it is apparent that Brann was interested in the creation of life (outside of the traditional paired way), with commentary on the creation of souls and the "purity" of elementals. The culmination of this was the golem Ben, who Brann raised as a son.

- Despite a disinterest in the divine, he summoned and made a pact with Quetz, a couatl, to care for the forest and animals in his tower as well as test the trustworthiness of incoming adventurers.

- He owned his tower, was free of debt, and didn't know what taxes were
Orbol

A half orc fighter and caravanner, Orbol is a member of the Carnival. Kind and maternal, Orbol has a wife in one of the forbiddances the Carnival services and has comforted a sobbing Montoya several times. She is also the one who requested Bones to Ash be on the look out for 3 caravanners lost prior to the Invasion of Heaven's Nest.
Ember's Lab

Ember's lab was housed in a small natural cave that was widened with tools in some places and guarded by a puzzle-trap using prymordial runes. The cave was discovered by Bones to Ash when they were looking for a replacement cave for Gogosha (who had been ousted from the Honey Grotto by Ice Wolves). Inside the lab the body of Ember was discovered as well as the a robotic dragon, a body created to hold the soul of the dragon Cloud-On-High.
Amarillo

The head of the Miner's Guild in Heaven's Nest, Amarillo is a hard working man who is extremely protective of the mines and their workers. He believes strongly that the forbiddance's best bet is to focus on expanding and manning the mines, and was a vocal advocate against the original introduction of the Gull's Rest refugees.
Constance Stoneworth

The exacting and meticulous quartermaster of the Forbiddance, Constance faces a difficult job every day managing Heaven's Nest's often scarce resources. Ruthlessly efficient at her job, she can be quite abrasive to those who waste her time. However, her main motivation is to make sure everyone in the Forbiddance goes to bed with a full stomach and a roof over their head so, anyone who makes that a bit easier will see her rumored soft side. She is also the mother of Charity, who works as her clerk.
Shanareen

A dryad whose tree grows near Hardy Harvest, she was found by Bones to Ash after being imprisoned by Maple the druid. Her tree was corrupted with a fiendish nature and turned into The Wicked Wort, which Maple and Ulrich used to create a small army of plant abominations in the hopes of destroying Hardy Harvest. She is a devoted Silvanus follower.

Shanareen was originally from the Feywilds but was somehow kidnapped (presumably Maple opened a tear in the Veil) and ripped from her tree on the Material Plane. She suffered for an unknown amount of time before being rescued from the Meenlochs, her awakened tree having torn Maple to shreds beforehand. Having never been to Immortuos after the Veil, Shanareen was shocked by the cursed land and lack of nature. She was also able to see the true nature of Koshi and the change occurring within her.

In spite of everything, Shanareen bravely aided the group in attempting to protect Hardy Harvest from her tree and its "fruit abominations." She fought at the side of Koshi when Hardy Harvest was invaded by her tree and then later was instrumental in diverting the attention of the wortlings at the final battle, allowing the group to weaken her tree enough for her to wrest back control.

Once Shanareen was reunited with her tree she entered a deep sleep, having rooted into the battlefield in Hardy Harvest. There, she promised to awaken again in the spring and aid both the town and the nearby Shadow Elf village with her magic. While recuperating, she confirmed to Montoya that the Ulrich involved in her torture was indeed the vampire the gunslinger had been tasked with killing. She created three enchanted stakes from her tree as a gift to the group, offering them another reward if they returned them with Ulrich's blood.

As a fae, Shanareen is prone to mischief. Despite being an ally, she frequently attempts to collect the true names of others as well as trap them into deals. She has however, promised to be nice about it.
Will McGregor

A farmer from Hardy Harvest, Will McGregor met the BtA group after they came to investigate a brutal attack on his horses. Will became convinced the series of attacks on the town were being organized by a local group of Shadow elves and led a mob of farmers to attack them, only to be ambushed by dire wolves. Thankfully, no one was killed though McGregor was subject to vicious admonishing by the group, particularly Montoya Cuervo. After it was discovered that the cause of the attacks was likely a local druid, Will began the task of convincing his neighbors to stop blaming the Shadow elves.
Shade Shalundra

Shade is a temporary member of the Shalun caretakers, having elected to join them to be able to spend time with her twin children as they grow up. She chafes somewhat at caretaker duty, missing her time exploring ruins and traveling the countryside. However, she is a doting mother and a fierce warrior—though her talents, like most Shadow Elves, lie more in infiltration than outright battle. Like Nyx, Shade was among the trio of elves "interested" in the group, though her attentions seemed to be largely focused on Del.
Ruadhan

### Overview

Something between a vampire spawn and lord, Ruadhan haunts the forests outside Heaven's Nest. Once a caravanner, the vampire now works as an indentured spy for Dunalla. Though they frequently attempt to play ominous, Ruadhan has become a dear friend to Adelaide Underhill and a trusted ally to the group as a whole.

### Background

Like many followers of Lolth, Ruadhan plays information close to the chest and not much is known about their past as a result. What is known is that they used to be a caravanner and was at one point taken captive by vampires. They were turned and forced to serve for decades before their undead master was killed by Duanalla.

Based on their accent, Montoya believes they are originally from the inner ring/Wave Crest.
Maeve

An untethered soul that currently resides in the Ring of the Staring Abyss, Maeve is a powerful follower of Lolth who was summoned via seance by the BtA group. Like many Lolth followers, she seemed unable to answer a question directly however she calls herself Duanalla's jailor. She revealed that she stopped Duanalla from achieving something (Montoya suspects it was an attempt at ascending) and that she lives in the ring by choice.
Mahika

Half-Elven woman. She had dark brown skin with silvery-gray hair. Her eyes are a bright, inhuman green that betrays her fey ancestry just as clearly as her slightly pointed ears. No nonsense and unbending, she will protect her fellow refugees with her life if necessary. She refuses to allow the villagers to see into the wagons because they contain a mismatched assortment of arms and armor that make it clear that the refugees have scavenged from battlefields in the past.

The leader of the refugees in Roanake, Mahita was killed during the Destruction of Roanoke before being freed centuries later by the BtA group.
The Hidalgo

## The Hidalgo Family

The Hidalgo family are mostly human and half elves. Their faction is known as the “the Crowns.” This name comes from the fact that their ancestor actually descended from pre-war nobility. They are the wealthiest of the four families, and they are characterized as intensely mercantile, interested in economic deals and wealth. They are fairly philanthropic, often investing in new Forbiddance ventures or the expansion of pre-existing ones, and most people see them favorably due to their many initiatives of education, welfare, and other aid.
Inigo

How exactly Inigo ended up on the Material plane is a subject of debate. A baby phoenix, Inigo should be in the Elemental Plane of Fire. After-all, phoenixes are the much beloved children of Sargonnas and the plane is his domain. Inigo himself is unsure how he got here. Phoenixes are immortal asexual creatures; for a baby to exist a parent phoenix must have willingly split themselves into more. Though he posses some of the ancient memories of his predecessor, Inigo does not have the ones which would explain how he -or his siblings- miraculously passed through The Veil.

What he does know is that when his egg was found near Heaven's Nest, it was Montoya Cuervo who cared for him and it was to her flew to when he hatched in the middle of an invasion. After the invasion, when Sargonnas crossed the Veil, Inigo offered to act as a conduit of Sargonnas's divinity and transformed the corrupted Chemosh artifact into Reckoning: a weapon of revenge for Montoya. Now, it is her soul he is bound to. Since then, Inigo has been an ever present ray of sunshine during her darkest times. In return, Montoya has sworn to protect him as well as try to track down the rest of his siblings.

### Sibling Count:

- A phoenix egg was discovered at the center of a forest fire by caravaners and given over to the Vasiles family. It now rests in their vault of magic items

### Kill Count:

- Inigo killed The Wicked Wort (an arc boss) by setting it alight with his talons
Cloud on High

A robotic dragon found in Ember's lab (now the home of Gogoașă). This vessel was created by Ember to house a dragon's soul during The God's War, though whether it is inhabited or not (or by who) is unknown. Said dragon's color is unknown as they are a robot now, and it was just made of pretty metally colored metal. They currently are still sleeping, deactivated, in Ember's Lab.
Anathema

The Banshee of Roanoke, Anathema was once a powerful warlock and follower of the New God Zaxantruss. During the God's War she led a host of demons to destroy a city at the behest of her god only to be confronted by the Bahamut paladin Eike. In the subsequent battle, Anathema banished Eike to Hell only for the paladin to stab her through the heart and drag her down with them, killing them both and in the process banishing the demons Anathema had summoned.

While Eike was celebrated as a famous martyr (the temple in Roanoke was one of several devoted to them), Anathema's spirit was bound to her corpse. Her body, stuffed with the divinity of a a new god, could not be destroyed at the time and was hidden beneath the church crypts of Roanoke. Three of Eike's comrades (Frederick, Xochitl, and Fakhir) were charged with keeping her locked away. Unfortunately, unknown to them, Anathema's spirit had transformed into a Banshee and she was able to convince one of the townsfolk - Gregory Russo- into killing the three and freeing her spirit. This led to the destruction of Roanoke and the deaths of everyone in town.

However because of the institution of the Veil, Anathema was unable to return to life: her god had been sealed away and even Chemosh refused to work with followers of new gods. Trapped as all Banshees are, Anathema spent the next several centuries torturing the townsfolk for amusement until the BtA group defeated her in battle during their cursedefier exam. Afterwards, using the Eike's old sword (then Grace, now Spite), they were able to finally destroy Anathema's body, freeing the town from her curse and finally allowing all the trapped spirits to move on to the afterlife.
Consantoir

Now an untethered soul, Consantoir was once an Oaken Knight who sealed his followers away inside the Forgotten Grotto to hide them from Chemosh. Unfortunately, help never came for the group and they succumbed to infighting and cannibalism when they ran out of food. Consantoir, alongside the other grotto ghosts, was trapped and unable to move on until freed by the BtA group. Following the encounter, Consantoir has elected to stay on the Material plane to help teach and guide Koshi, who he has taken as his squire. His artifact, an Oaken Staff, has been passed down to her.
Sanctuary of the Qilin

A small maze-like structure, this sanctuary was created the by the qilin Mr.Dr.Baobao near Heaven's Nest. He was gravely injured at the time and unable to heal himself, however he was able to weave a spell which effectively slowed time around him. This kept him from bleeding out while he waited an hoped someone with healing capabilities would come upon him. Using magic, he caused the local trees to grow together and then populated the maze with several puzzles in order to assure that whoever reached him was intelligent. He also specifically crafter a puzzle which could only be solved by someone with a reflection, preventing vampire spawn (common intelligent undead) from being able to reach him.

After the qilin was rescued, the sanctuary disappeared.
Lenore Reyes

A human woman, Lenore was a cleric of The Raven Queen who grew up in Heaven's Nest. Originally a farmer, Lenore woke up one morning to a calling. Following the voice inside her dreams, Lenore walked off forbiddance only to return later with an artifact. She served the forbiddance as a cursedefier and stonekeeper, growing in power until she was called to Wave Crest. She was escorted by a paladin, Seraph Delareina, who she would later marry and have a daughter with. She continued to rise in the ranks until she was eventually named a champion of the city. Unfortunately, 15 years ago, Lenore was killed while on duty. Her group had been assisting in the evacuation of a forbiddance before being overrun by undead. Lenore, a cleric of the grave, chose to stay behind to hold the horde in order to allow the others to escape.
Mr.Dr.BaoBao

Mr.Dr.BaoBao is a qilin who serves as Shenyu's mount. Found in a magical grove he created near Heaven's Nest, Mr.Dr.BaoBao was gravely injured but was thankfully able to make a full recovery. A kind of celestial, he is able to preform a variety of spells (including Augury) and is a follower of Silvanus. His name was chosen for him by Yuji.
Beshaba

The malevolent goddess of badluck, Beshaba is the twin of Tymora with whom she formerly was part of Tyche. At one point during the God's war, she was said to have worked with a New God before leaving him to fight alongside the Old Gods with her twin. While this is not publicly well known, her longstanding hatred of the Shadar-Kai elves is. The species' curses are the result of her continued grudge against them for aiding in the death of Tyche.

Another interesting note about the goddess is her relationship with the goddess Lolth. Though both tend to be notoriously esoteric, its well known among their respective followers that the two are dating. As a result, it is not unheard of for the followers of one to be instructed to aid those of the other.

The Wizard's Tower

A strange tower located near Heaven's Nest, The Wizard's tower was the domain of Brann Kreel. Hidden with a powerful magic, the tower recently became active. This attracted both the attention of Heaven's Nest (which disptached Bones to Ash to investigate) but also a Shadow Elf tribe (currently located in Stormstricken) that sent out D'lani.

### Tower Floors

The tower is much larger inside than it seems in the outside world, having a warped area of time and space. Alongside housing the enormity of Brann's work, the tower hosts a series of themed floors - each designed around puzzles to test the worth of those seeking to claim it (and Brann's work) for their own.

#### Outside

Tall and slender in appearance, the Wizard's tower was hidden until recently. Despite being visible to outsiders, it still required a puzzle to solve to gain entrance. Where Bones to Ash countered D'lani. (recheck with Kristina)

#### Floor 1

The entrance/ first floor of the tower interior. Featured a simulacrum of Brann (now deceased) to question those who wandered into the tower. The simulacrum was protected by a spell that would mirror back the force of any thing touching it two-fold. Despite an initial poor first impression, group was able to continue on by donning wizard-sonas (courtesy of D'lani) and pretending to be fans of Brann's work on a research field trip.

#### Floor 2

Second floor housed an immense library, organized by category on a variety of different subjects. Halfway through the library were two bronze bells, both missing clapper/tongs to ring them. In the back of the library (in front of door to the next floor) was a large open room containing: a magic hourglass, two grotesques, and multiple lit braziers.

The library's puzzle was themed around the last stanza of the poem ***For Whom the Bell Tolls*** by John Donne. Participants needed to toll one of the bells a total of times equal to the number of contestants (6 in our case -> each group member + D'lani and Inigo) while fending off two attacking grotesques. While deadly at the beginning, the grotesques could be weakened by extinguishing the braziers near them. The hourglass was enchanted to be immune from damage/spells cast on it to force participants to finish it in under 30 seconds (5 rounds), with the grotesques reciting a new line of poetry for each round.

#### Floor 3

Featured a sprawling lush forest, home to a variety of animals, blights, and Quetz. This floor featured no real puzzle, only a test of character (participants needto convince Quetz they mean no ill will) and a possible combat encounter against the plants and their guardian. Despite appearing as a human, Quetz is a couatl charged with caring for the nature in the tower.
The Flores

## The Flores Family

The Flores are mostly orcish and human. Their faction is known as “the Thorns.” Their name comes from the fact that they are well known for the military power, and thus have always been a thorn in the side of enemies of Wavecrest. The Flores have a larger presence out of Wavecrest than the other four families, due to their prevalence of their family members among squads of Caravaners. They are often seen as the house most like the common folk, due to their frequent association with them, and they use this to their advantage to curry favor.
Quetz

Appearing as a mature Latino man with dark skin and salt-pepper hair, Quetz is in reality an ancient celestial. A couatl, Quetz was summoned by Brann the wizard to manage and protect the forest hidden. Quetz is unsure how long he's been guarding his current home but was there before Chemosh's curse on the land. As the tower existed partially in its own dimension, he avoided the mass Banishment spell following the creation of the Veil.

Quetz lived on the third floor of the Wizard's tower and oversaw the careful maintenance of the floor's closed environment. Despite some initial reticence, he eventually allowed the Bones to Ash group to pass by after they made an oath (backed by Lolth) that they intended no ill will. He attempted to offer counsel to Montoya regarding how to restore Seraph to divinity but was left disturbed. Despite this, he accepted the group's offer to move into Heaven's Nest as Ben's guardian.

Unfortunately for him, Quetz would soon discover that the curse on the land impacted him far worse than the others as he drew his power from living, thriving nature. Though he is ok on forbiddance land, he would likely die if he spent any significant amount off time off-forbiddance.

Trivia

* He gave Del and Koshi flowers because he thought they were funny c:
* He buried the shells of the snails Koshi ate >:
* He currently owns Everyone Dies, a children's book on dealing with mortality given to him by Montoya
The Fate of Order

The second being to ever exist, The Fate of Order represents the laws of physics which bind the planes. Recently, Order has found itself opposed to Whim after the other Fate stole an artifact and set it loose on the Material Plane. In response, Order made a deal with Sargonnas, god of revenge, to allow him to temporarily visit the Material Plane and choose a champion to steal the artifact back.
Phillip Wintersbreath

A junior stonekeeper, Phillip Wintersbreath is a draconic origin (ice) sorcerer who lives in Heaven's Nest. He met the BtA group when they were investigating the mysterious deaths of the town's llamas (including the beloved McFluff). At the time Phillip was suffering from an UTI, which Koshi was able to help treat.

Later, during the invasion of Heaven's Nest, Phillip was found bleeding to death. His throat had been slit and his spell key stolen by the undead horde. Luckily he was healed by Montoya Cuervo and his key card retrieved before the Stone Vault could fall. Phillip then went on to fight in the finale battle between the two forces, where he survived. He currently remains in Heaven's Nest.
Korra Atavi

A gregarious (if often airheaded) person, Korra is the operator of "Straps n' Stuff", the main leatherworking stall in the Quartermaster's Market. While an industrious worker, she is something of a primadonna, and wants nothing more than to work on more interesting projects than yet another pair of boots. She is the creator of Montoya's duster.
Heathersong

The Deputy of Heaven's Nest, Heathersong is a very nervous young woman who is always on alert for any odd goings on. A keen investigator (if easily startled), she is always trying her best to keep the forbiddance safe. She is the mother of Sunnykit and the god mother of Montoya Cuervo. She is also a close friend of Seraph Delareina and has been using her magic to help cure them since the invasion of the town.
Wavecrest

One of the original Central Cities, Wavecrest is an ~~oligarchy~~ republic governed by a council made up of the four Founding Families and elected representatives: with one from the people of Wavecrest, The Outer Forbiddances, and the Inner Forbiddances.

### The Four Families

The four families consist of the Lobos, Flores, Hidalgos, and Vasiles. Each is (distantly) related to the founders of the city, and they all work in somewhat different sectors of politics, though there is some overlap. The Four Families do have a tendency to compete with one another over resources, control, and the faith and loyalty of the citizens of Wavecrest and its forbiddances. However, whatever rivalries they have for each other pale in comparison to their hatred of Chemosh, and they generally unite their resources, influence, and magic to protect the City-state.

#### The **Vasiles** family

Like all of the Four Families, has a nickname. Theirs is the Birds, due the bird messaging system they created and maintain. A more derisive nickname for them, however, is Chicks or Little Birds, because the family is mostly dwarven, halfing, and gnomish. They are known for being information gatherers (read, spies) and inventors. They are Wavecrest’s foremost researchers in developing better methods of creating forbiddances, as well as magical devices and weapons. They also handle the acquisition, discovery, and distribution of artifacts.

#### The **Hidalgo** family

Mostly human and half elves. Their faction is known as the “the Crowns.” This name comes from the fact that their ancestor actually descended from pre-war nobility. They are the wealthiest of the four families, and they are characterized as intensely mercantile, interested in economic deals and wealth. They are fairly philanthropic, often investing in new Forbiddance ventures or the expansion of pre-existing ones, and most people see them favorably due to their many initiatives of education, welfare, and other aid.

#### The **Lobos** family

Mostly elves. Their faction is known as “the Wolves.” They are known for being charismatic diplomats, somewhat averse to conflict and willing to mediate and make deals. They are often the ones who deal with the other Central Cities. Their nickname is for the fact that their power comes from working together as one, among the Lobos there are no “lone wolves."

#### The **Flores** family

Mostly orcish and human. Their faction is known as “the Thorns.” Their name comes from the fact that they are well known for the military power, and thus have always been a thorn in the side of enemies of Wavecrest. The Flores have a larger presence out of Wavecrest than the other four families, due to their prevalence of their family members among squads of Caravaners. They are often seen as the house most like the common folk, due to their frequent association with them, and they use this to their advantage to curry favor.
The Carnival Caravan

## The Carnival

Based in the outer ring of Wavecrest, The Carnival is a caravan somewhat notorious for its hedonistic members. It was nicknamed as such "because the party never stop." The Carnival services Heaven's Nest as a part of its route and its members have worked alongside Bones to Ash multiple times, particularly its captain: Basanio Vladilyn.

Blaithin

An extraordinarily chill and easy going elf, Blaithin accomplished through sheer laziness what countless others had failed to do: she became an untethered soul. Originally discovered by the group in the Forgotten Grotto as a trapped ghost, Blaithin chose not move on after being released. Instead she took possession of a dead body and laid down to nap in the sun.

She was soon discovered again by the group, who introduced her to Seraph Delareina. Ruling that the untethered soul was not a threat, Seraph allowed Blaithin to stay within Heaven's Nest with Koshi. During the Invasion of Heaven's Nest, she was nearly kidnapped by Zishi but was able to escape. She has since been inhabiting a stuffed doll and travelling with the group, though Shenyu has been building her a new body.
