Onnurai has been known to flirt with the adventuring companions of Lady Willow Stormborn, namely Altruism and Persephone Buckthorn. Onnurai's brief escapades with Altruism ended quite abruptly after one night of "carousing", and she has seemingly lost her interest in this horned outlander from the north.

## History of the sword

Tidebreaker was found by a tribe of desert elves in the White Steppes of Zabraban, and its appearance there started Soliel Felessa's quest to find Arkhon the Great and convince him to leave Estakeem to campaign west and start his crusade against the Demon Tide and their master, Kalrath the Archlich.

The Mediator was succeeded by the **Mediator**, a new mind flayer that commanded Bronn Wellton's slime body and increasingly focused on influencing humanoids on the surface. It was slain by Kovauk Elanakanu-Makate in the Pelenquolith tower, where it was creating new mind flayers and conducting a strange operation, involving astral and planetary charts created by Barendain monks in Kerrum.

When encountered by Persephone Buckthorn years after the guild business, they became a friendly acquaintances and he gifted her a damaged coffee table that used to belong to Crocus.
Sianor

**Sianor** is a territory of Agranor known for its long beaches and expansive grain fields. The rival port towns of Smallport and Littlehaven compete for commerce and political power in Sianor, but there is no official capital or administrator.

The taller peoples find Sianor's flat landscape uncomfortably windy, so most settlers in the territory are halflings and other small folks.
Skipping Islands

Monitor

The **Monitor** was a mind flayer under the Greatsword mountain. For centuries, the monitor was seated in a crystal throne, connected to more psionic crystals above through strange cables. At the entrance to the Monitor's secret lair, entombed bodies and intellect devourers were hidden in the floor, and connected to a rows of metallic headstone-like structures. Strange visions came to those who travelled near the Minotor's lair, and without the help of dozens of flumphs, no creature could walk past the metallic headstones.

On 4th Ashday, Owlbear 853 CL, a party of adventurers entered the lair while it was full of flumphs, managed to appraoch the Monitor, and killed it while it sat motionless in its throne. Sannl's *arcane hand* combined with Kass' newfound sword Starlight made quick work of the passive illithid. The Monitor was beheaded and disconnected from the cables and crystals.

Before the Monitor was killed, it projected a vision of a beholder's eyes, and the next day the party encountered a beholder with those exact eyes.
Silvarax Nevathuul

He works as the Golden Hope's huntmaster in Syllior, where he can usually be found in the guild hall, blowing freezing air over his tea, coffee, or other hot beverage until it freezes, after which he will curse at himself and begrudgingly crunch the now frozen liquid.

Lo-Tha spoke with Silvarax before she and her party first went to Nrannas.

When Silvarax attended the Midwinter festivities at the Longstrider Citadel, marking the beginning of 852 CL, he and Fholtarr Thunderblood, spoke at length in draconic, a language that Silvarax rarely gets to use outside his homeland.

After joining a diverse group of adventurers, the knight was introduced to the faith of Tyr and became a paladin of him. Hungry for power, Ozimir broke his oath and swore himself to the forces of the undead, serving as a blackguard of Galoz Klyth.

Ozimir was complicit in the fall of Ironston, and joined the undead shortly after witnessing the power of Khovakis' ghoul army. Ozimir has commissioned a maul from a blacksmith in the town, but it was never finished. The maul would go on to be used by the blacksmith's son Mehen Myastan. Mehen was part of the party that killed Ozimir for good.

Thorothar

Thorothar was once a vast empire of humankind, spanning from the Daggers to the mouth of the river Fallanaduin. In recent times, the empire has fallen to undead attacks. Before the empire's collapse, it was the largest empire in Thindrel and had the most cultural diversity. The old empire also has a long history of slavery, particularly involving human and dragonborn slaves, but also dwarves, elves, and orcs.

## Geography and borders

Due to its vast size, Thorothar has borders with many other domains. These borders are usually found near geographical changes and natural borders, such as mountains, forests, or rivers, and the specific placement of these borders has left Thorothar with very little mountainous or arboreal terrain. Thorothar is mostly a land of deserts, hills, steppes, and flat grasslands. Thorothar also has a long stretch of coast along the Sea of Dragons, upon which most of its major cities are located.

### Settlements

#### **Qorath**

* Main article: Qorath

"The Endless City of Qorath" was the capital of the Thorothan Empire, and home to the imperial family. Qorath is also the largest city in Thindrel.

* Sinria, "the city of devils"
* Duerhaith, kingdom of the dagger dwarves
* Mithlaru, kingdom of the high elves
* Pweleás, a barren land inhabited by nomadic tribes
* Zabraban, "empire of heaven"

## Religion

Many religions were practiced in the old empire, even many of those that were outlawed in neighbouring countries.

## Rise of the Undead

*"Galoz Menok, was the first to fall in the elven year of 842, and with it fell the length of the Grey Run and the surrounding settlements. 843 brought the first attacks on the great city of Qorath. This capital fell to the undead invaders, as the city guard and military's numbers dwindled, and the fallen rose to fight again — among the ranks of the dead. In 844 when the sovereign of Qorath begged his age-old enemies from the floating citadel to save his crumbling empire, the dragons refused. The great city had fallen. From Qorath, the now legions of undead took to the hills in the west, and by 845 Galoz Klyth was taken and the dead came knocking at the dragons' door. The living dead ravaged the woods and villages of western Dragonhorn. In 847 fell the cities of Ossor and Unarath, and in 851 Apophis stands as the sole beacon of hope for the old empire at the mouth of the river Fallanaduin."*

*—*Excerpt from *Khomnetep's History of Thorothar*
Venomfang

**The Whispering Wyrm** was a green dragon whom dragonborn from Jharuul claim heritage from as they named her **Venomfang**. The elves of Vallanorn call her **Life Stealer**, since when she plucked and ate the first fruit from the Tree of Healing, the tree lost part of its healing power. It was previously forbidden to take from the tree, and no elf or other creature had tasted the fruit before the wyrm.

After many years of living with the hag and her one-eyed animals, Paul was sent back to the material plane. Thinking this was a test of his devotion to the dark powers, Paul took up the murder hobo life. While searching for a way back to the hag, Paul made a deal with a fiend, in which he would deliver magic items to the fiend in return for his safe return to the Feywild.

With the help of an entity known as Arydun, a couple of Charles' friends managed to stop Paul and return him to the Feywild, where he reunited with the hag that had taken him in.

In addition to steel blades, Okriyet’s soldiers wield nets, lassoes, and wooden poles to fend off the rust monsters.
Raishan Thunderblood

**Raishan Thunderblood** is a blue dragonborn sorceress. Raishan has a longstanding rivalry with her brother Fholtarr and wants to replace him as heir to their father Siltharr's impressive titles.

When Fholtarr died in the Underdark, Raishan acquired his corpse in Kavaad and conspired with Vizharr to extract Fholtarr's magical potential before resurrecting him. When Vizhaar then died, Raishan had no way to obtain her brother's latent sorcery, and it wasn't long before Fholtarr pieced together what had transpired.
Soliel Felessa

**Soliel Felessa** was one of the Four Heroes and first of the Guardians of Thindrel.

## Quotes

*"You of heavenly glory / Lords and ladies of light / Accept my unending devotion and seal it were it may reach all / And cast down with its light the unholy and the vile.*

*You of unrivaled beauty / O Mother of Trees / Take my searing soul to the skies where it may burn like the sun / Keep it safe, so I can keep your children safe / And my children and all children to come.*

*Stand for goodness on this day / Or by goodness, on this day, you shall know my wrath!"*

—Lady Soliel’s plea, *Rhygon II's Book of Angels*
Yondria

**Yondria** is a duchy of Agranor. It was once a territory ruled by the chieftains and shamans of the local human tribes. The Duke of Yondria is a vassal of the Agranorian monarch, and rules Yondria in their stead from Redwinter in Wintermark.

   In addition the the central Wintermark, Yondria comprises of three other territories: Palesea, Savageshire, and the Northmarches.
Sky Tree

**The Sky Tree** was a magical dryad tree. The Sky Tree grew in the woods of Tol'Anar and it housed many fey spirits, including the dryads that grew from the tree. The dryads were connected to the tree through impossibly long locks of hair that seemed to defy gravity. A magical source of everlasting sunlight known as Soliel's Light exists where the canopy of the Sky Tree was before the tree was brought down by Kalrath's undead and elemental minions, roused by the cloud giant sorcerer Kutbar.

## Denizens

The Sky Tree was home to many fey spirits and wild animals, including the following:

* Fienna Dewwing, a faerie guide.
* Folyana, one of the dryads.
* Rinky, an indigo faerie dragon.
* Umina, a dryad that has cut her hair to leave the tree on an important mission.

Umina

Folyana (left) and Umina (right)

**Umina** is a dryad of the Sky Tree. She cut herself from the tree to fulfill a mission to rescue the souls trapped by the demon Daeszal.

On the 1st Ashday in Moon of the Kraken, 852 CL, Umina resurrected Galad after his soul was freed from the grasp of the shadow demon Daeszal. This act cost her her magic, and she can no longer connect to her former source of divine energy.
Sazzanith

Sazzanith in her lair, speaking with J'kae Rhithiss and a party of adventures.

**Sazzanith** was a purple dragon living in the Underdark under the Ridge of Blades.

Accompanied by adventurers, the drow inquisitor J'kae Rhithiss approached Sazzanith to make a deal and forge an alliance with the dragon. In this exchange, the adventurers were loaned the treasured sword Starlight. These same adventurers later returned to Sazzanith's lair and attacked her. Sazzanith was killed by Beatris Louhi, an act that caused conflict between her and Kassiopeia Domine and also significantly extended the necromantic blackening of Beatris' left arm.
Titan

I will write more on the **titans** as it becomes relevant.

## List of Titans

These are the primordial titans that some of the player characters may have heard of throughout their studies and travels in Thindrel.

* Maswu the Unmoving
* Nazyrai the Kraken Mother
* Hathial the Wandering
* Uqraj the Destroyer
* Yxalon the Twenty-faced
* Zodion the Shattered One

## Myths

The Titans are said to have existed in the primordial chaos that predates Thindrel before the gods arrived. Either the titan Zodion or the titan Yxalon and a dragon called Kaldyran allowed the gods into the world to form it into Thindrel as it is now known.

Several of the titans are associated with an element, and some of them have planets named after them.

Maswu is associated with earth, and some geocentrists say that the planet Thindrel is actually the body of Maswu the unmoving.

Nazyrai is associated with water, as well as with monsters and unusual astronomical observations. The planet also called the Great Wanderer, the Blue Wanderer, or the Blue Star is often called Nazyrai in the Primordial languages.

Hathial is associated with air and mystery. The planet known as the Dim Wanderer is also called Hathial, perhaps because of what little is known of this rarely visible celestial body.

Uqraj is associated with fire, but too many deities are associated with the Sun for most people to attribute that domain to this titan. These four titans are sometimes conflated with the Elemental Elder Gods, or speculated to be their predecessors, replaced when these gods came into the world.

The titan Yxalon is connected to the elemental and outer planes of existence, and its faces are associated with twenty different planes.

Zodion is supposedly destroyed, shattered into pieces by one or more of the other titans. These Shards of Zodion are allegedly what Lo-Tha has in her forehead, and what was found in the frontal lobe of the Elder Brain.
Valaara

**Spear of God Incinerates Wicked Souls** (known in Common as **Valaara**) is the most powerful angel of Manarakh's host. Spear of God is a solar angel of purity and punishment, and she is the chief general of her god's armies in Arcadia.

Spear of God appears as Valaara in *Rhygon II's Book of Angels* where she is described as "the purest among [Manarakh's] generals" and having "wings like Suns".
Lufia: Las Ruinas de Lore

**Lufia: Las Ruinas de Lore**, conocido en Japón como **Estpolis Gaiden: Chinmoku sin Iseki**, es un juego de rol desarrollado por el Double Studio y publicado por Taito en Japón en 2002 y por Atlus un año más tarde en Norteamérica.

Es el cuarto título de la Serie de Lufia y fue lanzado como un "Gaiden", o historia paralela, de la serie principal; como resultado, no dispone de muchos elementos comunes con el resto de la serie, tales como los Sinistrales y la Hoja Doble.

## Historia

Lufia: Las Ruinas de Lore tiene lugar 20 años después de los acontecimientos de Lufia: Origen de los Sinistrales, por lo que es el segundo juego de la serie cronológica. Después de la derrota de los Sinistrales por Maxim, el mundo ha disfrutado de una temporada de paz relativa.

Sin embargo, esto se ve amenazada cuando el Reino de Gratze, una creciente superpotencia militar, se alía con un misterioso hombre llamado Ragule y declara la guerra a las naciones fronterizas. Su principal objetivo es recorrer el mundo en busca de un poderoso monstruo conocido simplemente como "La Bestia", que, una vez bajo su control, casi aseguraría su conquista del mundo.

El juego es contada desde la perspectiva de un joven llamado Eldin, quien, durante esa época de conflictos, está viajando por el mundo en busca de aventuras e intriga. En su viaje, conoce a una joven sacerdotisa llamada Rubius que está en busca de fragmentos de piedras místicas para que le permitan entrar en una tierra santa legendaria.

Uno de los lugares al que necesita entrar para obtener una es la fortaleza de Ragule, y, una vez que llegan, se encuentran con el despota y se dan cuenta de que para que el mundo vuelva a estar en paz, debe ser detenido a toda costa.
Rhilin Farspire

**Rhilin Farspire** was a wizard from Mythhold. Throughout his life, Farspire was a student and teacher at the Mythhold Royal Academy of Arcane Studies, an archmage on the Rainbow Council of Mythhold, and a member of the Circle of Guardians.

Farspire is allegedly an ancestor of the male line of House Castlemoor, a family from Virdenia.

In Owlbear of 853 CL, a group of adventurers found Farspire's three-eyed skull in Shurynda Orlyar's possession. Orlyar had seemingly purchased the skull from the dwarves of Krûl.
Virdenia (Agranorian territory)

When the kingdom of Virdenia came under Agranorian rule, the land was split into two territories—Velantia and **Virdenia**. Virdenia consisted of the southern half of the later Kavaadic barony by the same name.

Virdenia was a territory of Agranor from the late 5th century CL and until 721 CL when it became a barony of Kavaad.
Wenda the Wandering One

**Wenda the Wandering One** (known to the elves as **Nana Thara** and to the dwarves and orcs as **Grebaska**) was a night hag dedicated to the shadow demon Daeszal. Wenda was once dedicated to the vampire Gulthias, and at some point she became sworn to an entity known as the Crimson Coven. Wenda is also a member of the coven known as the Sisters of Dread.

Wenda travelled far across Thindrel in service to her demonic master, and she and her coven have influenced the history of several kingdoms, including Kavaad and Tauryun. Wenda formed the Cult of the Shadow and got her loyal agents to infiltrate the Ashen Fist in Kavaad. After enslaving the drow Burbas'Tel Helviep, she tricked him into cursing himself with the Dark Spear and had him capture the angel Glorael's soul inside the spear.

Wenda was capable of granting pact magic to warlocks, and she commanded an army of blights in the Haunted Swamps in Tauryun, where she also created sea hags from local girls she kidnapped.

When Willow Stormborn sold her last breath to the cloud giantess Lagma, the Crimson Coven commanded Wenda to give Willow the command word to her magical soul bag, thus allowing Willow to use it as a bag of holding. Wenda, who had previously failed to kill Willow, watched the druid from the ethereal plane, following her wherever she brought the bag. This eventually lead Wenda to an encounter with Akaloth the Night Fiend who then killed the hag and trapped her soul inside his own rib cage. As was later revealed, this was all part of a plot to give Akaloth an easy way to return after banishment or death. The demon would then return each time Wenda did.
Sinistrales

**Los Sinistrales** son un grupo de dioses malignos de la serie de videojuegos Lufia.

## Lista de Sinistrales

Su base es la Fortaleza de la Perdición, pero por lo general luchan con los héroes obre muchas torres del mundo. Hay cuatro Sinistrales principales, cada uno de los cuales tiene una personalidad y un poder único:

* Gades, Sinistral de la Destrucción.
* Amón, Sinistral del Caos.
* Erim, Sinistral de la Muerte
* Daos, Sinistral del Terror.

Otra deidad, Arek, aparece brevemente en Lufia: Origen de los Sinistrales. Aunque su verdadera naturaleza no ha sido revelada, Arek parece ser un observador que mira desde lejos mientras los humanos y los Sinistrales luchan por el dominio del mundo. Además, Zalbak puede ser un Sinistral, pues Dao afirma que al absorber el poder de Erim se haría el último Sinistral.
Ozfurt

**Ozfurt Wrangle Albin Bitnot Magnifizzle** (or simply **Ozfurt**) is (or was) a gnomish wizard and purveyor of magical goods. For years, Ozfurt owned and ran a shop called *Mr. Magnifizzle's Magnificent Magicka* in Arcanum Square in the Central District of Kavaad. The shop was closed shortly after Ozfurt's disappearance some time during the Moon of the Owlbear in 852.

Ozfurt frequently cursed the magical items that he sold, prevent people from using them against him. Ozfurt sold cursed bags of holding that he would retrieve items from without the buyers' knowledge, magic weapons that would animate at his command and sometimes harm their attuned wielder. Ozfurt also collected blood from exotic creatures, such as dragonborn, genasi, tieflings, and even umber hulks.

Ozfurt disappeared shortly after two unsatisfied costumers —Ulhirr Raskulfelt and Fholtarr Thunderblood— had pointed a fiend in the direction of the gnomish shopkeeper, after the fiend had demanded a payment in magical items that was promised to him by Paul Castlemoor, the twin brother of the two costumers' adventuring companion and friend Charles.
Stormrose (sword)

**Stormrose** is the ancestral sword of house Goster of Virdenia. Stormrose was given by King Rhygon V to the baron of Goster who conquered the then Agranorian territory for Kavaad in 721 CL.

Stormrose's long blade is decorated with patterns of rose vines, and its cross-guard features adamantine roses in its design. The pommel of this sword is a red gem cut to the shape of a fist. The sword is said to grant its wielder power over Virdenia's wild nature.

According to some gnomish historians, the sword is an original Virdenian blade from the 3rd or 4th century CL, and the gemstone was added on later when it was given to the Gosters.
Thras

**Thras Lu-Galoz** was an undead priest of Galoz Klyth, trying to summon a sliver of Nefathat by sacrificing Yit's pack of gnolls and channeling a summoning spell through the demonic hunger in their blood. Thras and his ghoul acolytes were killed after Adran Onnurai and Mehen Myastan discovered Thras' true intent. The summoning circle was destroyed by Hemakshi and Adrika.

Troll elf

**Troll elves** are a subrace of elves, closely related to the wood elves of Tauryun. Troll elves differ from their elven kin by having bestial features and a more feral nature. Such features typically include fur-tufted ears and tails, body and facial hair, claws, antlers, and even fangs.

The troll elf tribes are widely regarded to be as grim as goblins and as fearsome as fey, and other humanoids in their territories use the troll elves in children's stories and cautionary tales.

I'll upload some lore here sometime if anyone's interested.

**Virdenia** is the westernmost of the three baronies of Kavaad.

Virdenia was its own kingdom up until the late 5th century CL, when it was annexed into Agranor as the territories of Velantia and Virdenia. In 721 CL, Virdenia became a barony of Kavaad, and in 733 CL, the barony reclaimed Velantia.

The original capital of the Virdenian Kingdom was Catostago. In the late 3rd century, King Turrisso III moved the capital to Lakeview, where he built Lakeview Keep. Lakeview has continued to be the seat of power in Virdenia since then.
