Farluscira

*The following is an excerpt from the entry Farluscira in the book Mana Deities of Vanquera, written by Evitt Felton.*

> Farluscira is a Mana Deity located in the enormous grassland of Vnast. The beast wanders about, leaving a river of Mana in its stead. It primarily patrols throughout a large circular pool of Mana, silently wandering through the glowing liquid as the beast swings its tails about.
>
>
> Farluscira is one of the more frightening Mana Deities in terms of appearance. Having the body of an enormous lion, two long, whip-like tails with barbed ends, as well as dozens of flailing human limbs across its back, this Mana Deity is truly an abomination. Where its face should be is instead a gaping hole, pouring with white, glowing Mana. Despite those who have cautioned me along my journey with many a story about what would happen should I look into the hole, the temptation only grew stronger with each warning. Not only did I want to see it for my own two eyes, but I had to be the first to document it.

>
>
> Although I never dared approach the creature, early one morning I got lucky enough to get a good long look. Peering into the hole, I saw a grassy landscape with distant spires of white jutting into a clear blue sky. Scattered about the grass was a series of Mana pools, each of which seemed to have glowing crystalline spikes protruding forth from beneath. Something about it was so indescribably beautiful, I could almost feel myself being sucked in. That was until Farluscira faced elsewhere and wandered away.

Farluscira is a Mana Deity with the appearance of a lion which resides in the fields of Vnast. Trailing behind Farluscira is a pair of long tails with spikes at the ends, and protruding all across its back is dozens of human limbs. In place of its face is instead a gaping hole which pours with Mana, leaving a river of Mana in its stead.

## History

Farluscira is said to have once fought with the White Lady.

Micrus Mecha Nolimite

A Micrus Mecha Nolimite - or simply a Nolimite - is a Micro class Mechabeast. They are described as small worm- or caterpillar-like metal needles. They rarely grow more than an inch long, and are notorious for burrowing into the skin of other animals.

## Behavior

Nolimites are parasitic Mechabeast that dig into the flesh of still living animals and will attempt to suck the Mana from their hosts, while also using them as a means of protection. Symptoms of infection include drowsiness, memory loss, a greatly increased appetite, and itching of infected areas. The area of entry may swell and redden.

To locate a Nolimite, search the skin for an elongated lump near the infection site. Clear out as soon as possible.

## Habitat

They are most commonly found in the Sarinda Desert and the lush forests of the Takari.
Scapularis

The Scapularis is a bird species found in the Shattered Lands, where they form nests on the floating rocks. These birds can be vicious should anything come near them or their nest.

Using the Scapularis' signature white-blue feathers in any capacity serves as a status symbol across many Vanqueran cultures. These birds are difficult to obtain due to their behaviors and choice of habitat, which is only compounded by their scarcity.

The Scapularis feeds primarily on the fruit of regional plants, namely Occans and Udines.

Tiri Abut

Tiri Abut is the manager of her family's store in the Sarinda settlement Windaril. She gets a lot of strange looks for the way she dresses, but she pays no mind, it's how she chooses to express herself. She is confident in herself and her abilities, familiar with the quirks of the town her parents chose to settle in. It's where she grew up, and it's where she may choose to die.

Tiri is just one of only a small few friendly faces in the wastelands of Sarinda. She has become good friends with a lot of the people in town, even with known thieves and murderers. She doesn't hold a grudge for long, always willing to forgive, but never forgets. She is not particularly powerful when it comes to Mana, nor is she the strongest, but she can hold her own. She knows a fair few good jokes, and is capable of laughing at herself along with other people, garnering her the respect of her friends.

When it comes to her family, Tiri can be ruthless. She is very protective of her family's store and its products, chasing down anyone who would dare steal from or otherwise disrespect her family's establishment.
Almanari

The Almanari are a race/species of people in Vanquera that have wooden protrusions from their flesh of various shapes, colors, and even wood types. They will trim and groom them as necessary, while also shaping them to their own individual needs, tastes, and desires. They may even dye them like they would dye their hair. Trimming their wooden protrusions is no different to cutting one's hair or clipping one's nails, as it is a (mostly) painless procedure.

According to ancient Takari and Almanari myth, it's likely these two races branched off of each other long ago.

## Classification

Similar to the Culicarti, they classify themselves by the type of wood and distinguish each other by its shape.

 Hickory

## Almanarian Paralysis

Almanarian paralysis is an uncommon form of disease in which the wood protrusions on one's body may become stuck together, disabling movement. This happens similarly to Culicarti paralysis. In the case of the Almanari, this can easily be cured simply with proper trimming.

## Almanarian Mana Deities

When an Almanarian becomes a Mana Deity, they will gain additional features, but will not lose their wooden features.
Manatite

*See also: Mana.*

Manatite is crystalized Mana. It is a semi-rare form of Mana, fetching a decently high price on many markets. While it is possible for a powerful enough Mana Caster to make, it can be found naturally all throughout Vanquera. It is most commonly found in the Shattered Lands.

Manatite is a recurring part of Swaybrand design, being integrated into the vast majority of Swaybrands.
Thetha Agridir

Thetha Agridir was the first queen and monarch of Equavir. She rose to prominence through slaughtering the Madrianir and the Metari peoples. She conquered kingdoms, killing all opposition.

## History

Thetha Agridir was not the founder of Equavir; That was the doing of her father. She sought to prove herself to her father by slaughtering entire cultures of people. Despite overthrowing the Metari, her father failed to recognize her might. She killed him with her own personal blade. Seemingly proud of is daughter, he smiled as he bled out.

Now the queen of Equavir, Thetha Agridir would go on to eradicate entire civilizations, erasing much of their history in the process. They would not be remembered, even by the Equavir themselves.

Thetha was assassinated by Wenim Adtu, who was subsequently executed by Thetha's own royal guard. She would be succeeded by her daughter, Linbadt Agridir.
Shadewalker

*See also: Shadehunter.*

Shadewalkers are immortal beings that consume the Mana of other creatures. When engulfed entirely in darkness, they are capable of teleportation. This ability is referred to as *shadewalking,* for which they are named*.*

## History

According to legend, the very first Shadewalker was Miriam Lovelock. Upon spilling blood on a sacred tomb, she angered the Celestials who cursed her to forever crave the Mana of other beings.

She has given birth to many shadewalkers.

Vatilia Agridin

Councilman Vatilia Agridin is a member of the Jadeth Council, and the current youngest ever inducted into the Jadeth Council at just 29.

## History

Vatilia Agridin gained political favor through exposing local corruption in her district, the Riverwind District. She became Abuman but a few months into her campaign, winning against her opponents in a landslide election. Upon noticing the nearly unanimous support of her district, the Jadeth Council put her down for consideration as their next member.
Evitt Felton

Animation by Nightmare3711

> I've only just begun delving into Vanquera's mysteries. This world is begging for its history to be uncovered, and I'm going to be the one to do it.
>
> Evitt Felton, "Mana Deities of Vanquera"

Evitt Felton is one of the many journalists and historians of Vanquera. His expeditions across Vanquera in an effort to document his findings have contributed greatly to many nations. His published works include Encyclopedia Mechanica Animalia, Mana Deities of Vanquera, and Encyclopedia Animalia.

## History

Evitt Felton is an Invardium Militia Legion veteran, having served in the force for five years. His friends in the Legion have helped him on numerous missions.

Evitt Felton has explored more of Vanquera than anyone else documented.

## Personality

> A fool to the end, that Evitt Felton, a fool to the end.
>
> Unknown

Evitt Felton has put himself into the face of danger an untold many times throughout his adventures. He feels the need to chronicle Vanquera far exceeds his own wellness, and as such has quite possibly come close to death more than anyone ever documented. He says on multiple occasions that he has long lost his sense of self-preservation and any fears attached to it, claiming it was likely something attained from his time in the Invardium Militia Legion. How he survives every perilous encounter as a non-Mana Caster is nothing short of miraculous.
Skulking Eucalyptus

A type of tree that thrives in low sunlight. This type of tree is a rare find around Invardia's outer wall,

## Appearance

This tree is amongst the smaller trees near Invardia, growing to be, on average, ten feet tall. Its bark is a deep, crimson red, and peels off easily with a knife. The sap is sticky and difficult to remove from most anything.
Celestials

The Celestials are said to be the gods of Vanquera, each residing over their own domains. They once interacted with Vanquera on the regular, but post-Era of Adversity, their presence has faded to myth and legend.

A regular practice amongst Vanquerans is to swear upon the body parts of Celestials, the implication being the Celestials will grant powers and blessing dependent on the part sworn upon. Some may swear to specific Celestials - such as the Kindkrist Unirdia - though this is an exceptionally rare practice.
Kavirite

Kavirite is a natural substance that can be found deep beneath the surface in pockets or veins. Kavirite is an incredibly rare material that fetches high prices on global markets. The ore is said to possess animalistic traits, as if the metal itself were alive. This material has been likened to Mechabeast, as it has been posited that Kavirite is Mana-infused metal. Such a claim blurs the line between ordinary Manasteel and the complex order of the Mechabeast.
Emi Prominca

Emi Prominca, as made using Artbreeder with some edits by Nightmare3711

Emi Prominca is the youngest daughter of the Prominca family. She aspires to one day become a Swordswayer, inheriting either one or both of the Etherium Brands.

## History

Emi Prominca grew up hearing of the many stories surrounding the mythical Etherium Swaybrands - Epic tales of heroism and victory passed down through the ages, including those of his own father who inherited the Brands himself.

Having been raised in the Prominca household, Emi knows what it would mean should the world come to know the exact locations of the Etherium Brands. When she turned 14, her father felt he could trust her with the knowledge of the Brands' locations.
Cocoi Tristis

The Cocoi Tristis is a lizard-like reptile with a bony frill sprouting from the top of its snout. This frill is used as armor to protect itself from threats.

## Appearance

These lizards can grow to be up to two feet long from head to tail. Their beige colors reflect the terrain in which they live.

## Behavior

Cocoi Tristis have been observed using their frills to spar with one another, both for territory and opportunities to mate.
Mecha Lubarta

Mecha Lubarta - or simply Lubarta - is a centipede-like Mechabeast capable of merging with other Lubarta. Their most basic form takes on the centipede form, which falls into the Animal class of Mechabeast. When combining together, however, they may take on a multitude of forms so numerous it's thought there is no limit. The largest recorded grouping of Lubarta...

## Behavior

Animalus Lubarta are known to burrow, forming labyrinthine tunnels throughout their territory.

Lubarta are generally not hostile, but are highly protective of their territory. They spit acidic Mana at anyone perceived as a threat, which they also use to digest their prey.

Lubarta may hunt other Mechabeast as a way to gather the compounds necessary for mutation. They may even hunt other Lubarta.
Brightwind

*See also: The White Lady and Swaybrand.*

Brightwind is the Swaybrand of the White Lady.

## History

The weapon's history is as illusive as the White Lady herself. Who forged it, how it was forged, when it was forged; All facts that may forever remain unknown.

This weapon of legend is said to have slain hundreds of beings, Mana Deities, Mechabeast, and people alike. It was unlike any other Swaybrand ever made, a blade taller than any man. The White Lady would take her Swaybrand into one of the most legendary fights in all of Vanquera; The White Lady's battle with Farluscira.

Despite its greatness, Brightwind shattered, breaking into two pieces. The White Lady would retreat from battle, having come across the only opponent known to have bested the White Lady. She fled to the Equawood Tree of Invardia, taking her trusted Swaybrand with her. Her and Brightwind reside there to this day.
Vena Vemtress

Vena Vemtress was a politician seeking entry into the Jadeth Council. She was assassinated part way through her campaign. The assassin remains undiscovered to this day.Vena Vemtress was seen as a wise and caring individual. She had a sharp tongue, capable of cutting through any and all bullshit. She would regularly speak her mind, though not until after some careful thought. She was witty, with a certain charm only those discerning enough could attain.

Vena Vemtress had doubts about several of the member of the Jadeth Council, and believed herself capable of serving in a spot on the Council.

## History

Vena Vemtress was raised in a household that questioned authority at every turn. Vena saw how her family could dig up the truth, picking up on habits that would carry her throughout her life. She never associated herself with any one movement, as she could sense the underlying agendas present beneath the surface of many of them.

Striving to strengthen her people's rights, one of the cornerstones of her campaign was the stricter regulations of the Jadeth Council - in other words, more frequent Ablution Ceremonies. Another cornerstone was uncovering the lies that Invardia has been trying to withhold for generations. She believes the people deserve to know the truth, even if that knowledge is dangerous.V

ena Vemtress was stabbed to death in her sleeping chambers by an unknown assailant. She was found the next day by her brother, who she was to confide with that morning about the next steps in her campaign. She was 43 at the time of death.
Gigantus Mecha Zhithdi

Gigantus Mecha Zhithdi, or simply just Zhithdi, is a Giant-class Mechabeast of unknown origin. Zhithdi is described as spherical, featuring six plated, insectoid legs which it uses to shield its body. It will use these legs to scale cliffs or traverse otherwise rough terrain. When the terrain is smooth enough, however, Zhithdi will retract its legs into its body and roll around. This appears to be its preferred method of traversal.

## History

Zhithdi was first discovered along the border between the Sarindite Desert and the Alamastian Fields, an area known locally as the Wretched Plains. Zhithdi was seen fighting the Mana Deity Vadvu. The battle is poorly documented. All that is known is that Zhithdi was the battle's victor.

Zhithdi has also been seen challenging other Mechabeast, such as Gigantus Mecha Lubraki, a battle which is documented in greater detail.

### Battle with Lubraki

Thanks to the efforts of Sarindite scholars, the battle that occurred between Zhithdi and Lubraki is greatly documented.

While it is that Zhithdi appears to actively avoid the Ruinous Wastes, this is the only time known that this Mechabeast has been spotted in the region.

A woman named Cu Badil was scavenging with her party in an area called a "scrap quarry". They had gathered all they could for the day, when they heard the familiar rumble of a Mechabeast roar in the distance. Cu looked out across the desert, seeing Lubraki approaching. Gathering their stuff, they rushed for their Duneriders. They threw all they had onto the trailers and sped off. One of the men in the party - one Gareth Midgai - had mistakenly been left behind. Upon realizing this, Cu sped back for him, followed by the rest of her party.

One of the other party members rushed to where they had last seen Gareth, only to find he had fallen into a sand pit. With the Mechabeast now approaching, Cu, along with the rest of the crew, each reached down to help pull him out. But they had underestimated the speed of Lubraki.

Lubraki was no more than a mile away, when it had only been roughly ten but a few moments before. Then, the team heard another roar from behind them. They turned to see Zhithdi was approaching, even faster than Lubraki was. It was kicking up dust as it rolled across the dunes.

Understanding they couldn't outpace either Mechabeast, Cu called for her party to dive back into the pit they had just pulled Gareth from. They dove in, just as
Mana Caster

*See also: Mana.*

While all living beings are capable of using Mana, a Mana Caster possesses an innate ability to command and control Mana to a degree that others cannot. Mana Casters aren't as susceptible to Mana's temptations of power, and as such can take on more Mana at once without becoming Mana Deities.

Mana Casters take on many prominent roles in a number of societies, such as scholars, politicians, artists, warriors, or farmers.

Mana Smiths infuse metals to make Manasteel, and in turn use that Manasteel to forge new equipment.

The Culicarti greatly despise the usage of Mana in any measure, going to great lengths to not only prevent it in their own society, but to abolish the usage of Mana in Vanquera altogether. Their people have gone on a number of crusades, preaching the word of their Celestial Culisan.

## History

Mana Casters are believed to have existed for millennia. The Era of Adversity likely saw some of the greatest Mana Casters to ever live, including Jadeth Camiern, the very person to end the Era of Adversity.

Mana Casters can be found just about anywhere, and often inhabit the most powerful positions there are in Vanquera. Many powerful Mana Casters practice the art of Swordsway.
Vanquera

Vanquera is a world of many secrets.

## Regions

### The Shattered Lands

The Shattered Lands is a major region of Vanquera, but the least explored as it is considered to be far too dangerous to traverse with all the massive chunks of debris soaring through the air.

### Takari Forests

The forests of the Takari surround much of Invardia. They are guarded by Mana Deities.

### Alamastian Fields

The Alamastian Fields are a small untamed field just beyond the outermost Invardium perimeter wall. It's home to some of Vanquera's most benign Mechabeast, such as the simple Walker.

### Sarinda Desert

The Sarinda Desert is a barren wasteland inhabited by some of the most frightening Mechabeast in all of Vanquera.

#### The Ruinous Wastes

The Ruinous Wastes is a region within the Sarinda Desert abundant with the colossal wreckages of some sort of ancient structures.

## Civilizations

### Invardia

Invardia is an empire located near the Alamastian Fields and the forests of the Takari.

### Equavir

Equavir is a large empire known for their usage of Mechabeast literally carrying their civilization.

### Valushari

The Valushari are a people with a deeply-seeded connection to Mechabeast. They worship them like gods, and heavily incorporate them into their society.

### Umrikai'Anar

The homeland of the Almanari deep within a forest.

### Fartrosia

Fartrosia is the homeland of the Kindkrist Unirdia located along Vanquera's coast.

### Takari

The Takari forests fall under the Takari people.

### Fandirral

Fandirral is the homeland of the Fandiralli.

### Ndirlaku

The Ndirlaku people have recently founded a civilization near Leviathus Mecha Majora, although it remains unnamed.
Mana Directions

A recent discovery made by Equavirian scientists could revolutionize how Mana is used in Vanquera. These Equavirian scientists found a way to make infusing and casting Mana a significantly more efficient task.

It turns out that the infusion of Mana can be divided into six different directions: Upward, Downward, Northward, Southward, Eastward, and Westward. Each direction affects ways in which Mana can be infused. The following is each direction explained in detail.

When infusing with Mana, it is important to keep the Directions in mind.

Let's say, for example, a Mana Caster wants to infuse her dress such that it glows. The most ideal situation for her would be to get as high up and as far South as she can. In addition, she should also take with her an amber gemstone and a sunstone gemstone. Then, she must focus on times in which she felt emotions associated with either Southward or Upward, like anger and happiness. This will ensure she has met the ideal conditions for infusing as she desires. She will have an easier time infusing, and might even infuse her dress in a way she didn't plan for but appreciates regardless.

This will mean that Mana Casters will want to bring with them at least one of each gemstone wherever they go. The more they have, the better, as the more gemstones of a chosen Direction a Mana Caster has, the easier and the more effective related infusions can be.

This will inevitably lead to drastic changes across all of Vanquera, perhaps seeing people go to places they would never have once considered visiting before, as well as these six gemstones skyrocketing in price. Armor will be made of different materials, possibly some made with or even \*of\* gemstones. Aviators will use amber to help them fly more effectively. Vitriators will start to use pellets made of gemstones. We could see Invardia's recent vertical expansions increase exponentially as Mana Casters seek out ideal circumstances for their infusions. Bustling cities will one day form where Mana Casters gather.

It's unclear why these properties of Mana exist, and why only now they are being discovered, but one thing's for sure: Vanquera will forever be impacted by it.
Ashebolt Stoneblood

Ashebolt Stoneblood is an inventor and Animechis of some renown in the Ishima District of Invardia.

## History

]ashebolt was born into the slums of Equavirian society. Having been raised in a society best known for their relationship with Mechabeast, Ashebolt became very familiar with them. His curiosity grew as he got older, until he started making some of his own.

Moving to Invardia, he slowly garnered a cult following, sharing a deep love for creation with his followers. Though he from a mechanical background, Ashebolt eventually branched into other artforms, such as painting and composing. He loved nothing more than to create.
Knillodrites

The Knillodrites are a cult-like culture that worship the Mechabeast Knillodrix. They live by the Eldrolli Lake, which is where the core of their beliefs reside. They believe the water is blessed by Knillodrix, and is capable of giving them visions of the future.

Knillodrites are primarily composed of Equavirian veterans who have fled their home nation for a better life, one away from mass conflict and warfare. Despite this, they have had a difficult time fully shedding their culture's love of all things war, so they enlist some of their people to serve as guards for their primary facilities.

There is only one known individual that has been welcomed into their ranks without going through their induction process. This individual is believed to be a member of the Swordswayer Brotherhood.

He never takes the same route twice. Many of them are dangerous. If he needs to communicate with them, he talks with a cult shopkeeper to exchange sales information.

## Trial of the Turtle

The Trial of the Turtle involves those coming of age taking a more concentrated version of Knillius. This is done as a test to determine whether or not an individual is worthy of joining their ranks.

Leviathus Mecha Majora

*See also: Mechabeast.*

> When one sees Majora for the first time, one can't help but cry.
>
> Unknown

*The following is an excerpt from the entry Leviathus Mecha Majora in the Encyclopedia Mechanica Animalia, written by Evitt Felton.*

> *Leviathus Mecha Majora*, or simply just *Majora*, is the largest known *Mechabeast* in all of *Vanquera*. Its enormous form rivals that of entire continents, and is arguably so large it is of a size class unto its own. Its form is composed of dozens of segments that each have a set of six legs - three either side. *Majora* moves at such a pace that it almost isn't a factor when boarding. There are many rumors about what its head looks like, but there's no way for me to confirm any of them for myself.
>
>
> *Majora* is believed to be home to hundreds if not thousands of species of plants, animals and *Mechabeast* never before documented, and even a great many *Mana Deities*. Getting atop *Majora* is a challenge in and of itself.
>
>
> *Leviathus Mecha Majora* is said to be a demi-god among many *Vanqueran* cultures. Many new species that appear throughout *Vanquera* without any links to other documented species are often attributed to *Majora*, and as such *Majora* has been considered to not only have given life to those new species but to have created most if not all life in *Vanquera*.
>
>
> *Mana* spouts from a number of locations across *Majora's* form, forming lakes and rivers all around it, making it both a beautiful spot to be in but also incredibly dangerous due to the large number of *Mana Deities* and *Mechabeast*.

>
> With the help of some *Invardium friends*, I was recently able to board *Majora* to document further. My journey in documenting this beast has only just begun.
>
>

There are a number of mythological superstitions surrounding the ends of the beast, as the Mechabeast is so large that nobody has ever been to either end. Passionate debates are had among nearly every culture concerning what they look like, referencing the head of nearly any and every known species. Some even say it has no ends but is instead just one endless loop.

## History

### Origin

Majora is thought to have been created by the Celestials as the world's first Mechabeast.

### Crusades

Throughout Vanquera's history, there have been many a crusade to board and explore the Mechabeast
Tales of Vanquera

Tales of Vanquera is the in-development Tabletop Role-Playing Game (Or TTRPG) being made by Nightmare3711.

## Rules

### Attributes

Attributes are what allow characters to complete actions. They are referenced often.

* Fitness: If something requires significant physical effort., it falls under Fitness.
* Combat: When defending or attacking.
* Technology: If it is man-made, it is Technology.
* Social: When interacting with people.
* Piloting: All vehicles of any kind, regardless of shape or size, even if it is an animal.
* Nature: Any interaction with natural forces (Plants, animals, Mana Deities, and even Mechabeast)
* Supernatural: If Mana is involved, Supernatural is the Attribute for that.

Per character, they are ranked in order from strongest to weakest or best to worst, meaning the first attribute is the one the character is the best at while the last attribute is the one the character is the worst at.

* For example, Laniri Vudal studies Manablooms for a living. Her ranking might look something like this: Nature, Supernatural, Technology, Social, Fitness, Combat, Piloting.

When an action is taken, the player must roll a D6 - a six-sided die - and add all applicable attributes to the action. The resulting number then determines how successful the action was.

* For example, Laniri Vudal needs to persuade her local government to put more funds into her research. She would need to roll 1D6 plus her Social Attribute, which is a 0 as it is in the middle of her Attributes hierarchy.
Starshade

Starshade is a type of flower that grows in the Shattered Lands, where it can be found on various floating islands. This flower buds purple petals with yellow glowing pistils which contribute to its name. Not much else is known about these flowers, likely because nobody dares explore the Shattered Lands for how dangerous they are known to be.
Phantoms

As well-trained assassins and masters of Mana and Mana technology, phantoms are sent on countless missions over the course of their lives. They are given unique weaponry and experimental gadgetry to fulfill such needs, and granted special privileges afforded only to them. Every phantom is a Mana Caster.

Phantoms got their name for their use of cloaking technology. They are among the most feared forces of the Invardium Militia Legion.

With the advent of the exostationary suit, phantoms quickly gained the notoriety they are known for today. Their suits are specially calibrated to deflect all oncoming projectiles. Anything thrown or shot at them seems to pass right through them, much like ghosts of myth.
Invardium Bit

The Invardium Bit is the currency of Invardia. A Bit is a small, glowing cube infused with Mana such that it sticks together with other Bits. The Mana is infused in such a way that each can be individually identified by Mana Casters, should they know what to look for.

Bits are often connected together to form larger cubes to make them more convenient to transport. Only when a smaller purchase is necessary are they disconnected from each other. Bits will stick together indefinitely until someone physically pulls them apart. Unlike magnetic cubes, a properly infused Bit can attach to other Bits along any face.

Engraved in each face is one of six symbols:

* An engraving of Jadeth Camiern.
* An engraving reminiscent of depictions of the White Lady, being a head with two antlers.
* The Equawood Tree.
* A Roy Dog.
* A Roy Cat.
* One of the 15 Precepts of Swordsway.

Additionally, every Bit has a code along the edge beneath Jadeth Camiern's chin to identify each individual Bit.

## History

The Invardium Bit was introduced in the year ---.

The symbols have changed several times throughout Invardia's history. The Bit initially only had one symbol that was engraved on one face: Jadeth Camiern's face. Later, the White Lady was added, quickly followed by the addition of the Equawood Tree. The Roy Cat and the Roy Dog were added together less than a year after the Roy Cat was recognized as a symbol of Invardia. The Precept idea was a suggestion made by Undeles Munatas to help further distinguish individual Bits.
Bestius Mecha Caninisua

Bestius Mecha Caninisua, or simply just Caninisi, is a species of Mechabeast with a canine-like apperance. They are among the most common types of Mechabeast.

Caninisi are highly territorial, and do not treat people kindly. They are hefty beasts, significantly larger than your average dog.

Sarindites are particularly fond of these Mechabeast, using them for sport and for transportation, while certain Invardium organizations will use them as part of their defense system.

## History

Caninisi are not bred, and each seem to share an as-of-yet unknown origin. It has been posited that they may come from a Myriad Machine.

Manawood

Manawood is a broad term used to identify any wood infused with Mana, regardless of its properties. Not all Manawood is white, despite what some may claim.

Manawood comes in a variety of different forms for a wide range of purposes. They may be used in construction, to more efficiently and easily start fires, to be used as a durable wood in shields, or whatever else one can think of.

## Uses

Manawood has a broad range of uses in Vanquera. Below is a list of some of the more well-known and popular uses for Manawood.

* If infused properly, Manawood may be able to ignite simply by willing it to. It may even ignite when it is wet, making it a valuable material for anyone looking to go adventuring.
* Fuel-efficient blast furnaces.
* Some Swaybrands were crafted entirely of Manawood, including some of the first ones ever made.
* Manawood furniture is considered to be very luxurious.
The Ruinous Wastes

The Ruinous Wastes is a section of the Sarinda Desert plagued with decaying structures, remnants of some sort of long-lost constructs. Some parts of the Ruinous Wastes stretch well into a local mountain region, where grass is more abundant and trees penetrate through the decaying, rusted structures.

These ruins may be traces of a civilization forgotten to time millennia ago; Or the decomposing corpse of a Mechabeast that died before it could be discovered and documented; Or something more recently constructed by a Mana Deity, only to be brought to ruin in more recent times. Whatever the origin, the structures that decorate the landscape of this region of the desert are plagued with all manner of Mechabeast and Mana Deities.

If the Ruinous Wastes are found to be what remains of an ancient civilization, such a discovery could significantly alter the way the history of Vanquera is perceived forever. Perhaps a Myriad Machine resides within one of the ruins which is to blame for the region's abundance of Mechabeast.

## Regional Mana Deities

There aren't many Mana Deities specific to this region

## Regional Mechabeast

### Gigantus Mecha Kintara

Kintara is a Mechabeast that roams about the Ruinous Wastes.

### Gigantus Mecha Lubraki

Lubraki is known for being hostile to travelers and will attack without warning. Lubraki can burrow partially underground.
Farthu Viskalin

Farthu Viskalin is a Mana Deity with the appearance of a rat roughly twice the size of a common bear. It features nearly a dozen tails each like the tentacles of an octopus, with 20 eyes scattered all about its head, and a mouth with two arms it uses to snatch its prey and interact with the environment. Due to its palms constantly leaking Mana, they are useless for gripping effectively.

## Behavior

Farthu emits a constant crinkling noise. Farthu Viskalin is hyper-aggressive, attacking anything that comes too close. Should it feel threatened, it will emit a hissing sound.

## History

Farthu Viskalin formed upon consuming the remains of a defeated Mana Deity.
Florinomica

*See also: Vena La'Vada and Manabloom.*

The Florinomica is a library that uses Manablooms in place of typical books or tomes.

The Florinomica is run by Lady Vena La'Vada and is funded by members of the Jadeth Council.

It is said that the Florinomica contains Manablooms with messages that could unravel a number of mysteries about the Jadeth Council and shine a light on the shady underbelly of Invardium politics.

## History

The Florinomica wasn't always the Florinomica. When Vena La'Vada's parents bought her a place to start her own business, she struggled for years trying to figure out what it was exactly that she was to do with the place. It wasn't until her father one day gave her a mysterious Manabloom that she came up with the idea.

After a great many decades, Lady Vena La'Vada still runs the Florinomica to this day.
Menit Zuvino

*See also: Invardia.*

Menit Zuvino is but another soldier serving on behalf of Invardia. His expertise has served him well, gathering a wealth of knowledge about his particular choice of career. He ascended several ranks quickly, but finds he is mostly content with his current position as the head of an entire sector. He is well-respected by his men, as he is just as willing to get himself dirty as he is to command others to. He pioneered a few unusual tactics that proved to be successful for his unit, while others have failed to employ it to the same effectiveness as his own unit has.

Menit Zuvino is a man for his people, serving both in the interests and needs of his people and that of his own family. He finds difficulty juggling the two effectively, but believes he will one day master the art of life balance.
Abufi

Abufi is a Mana Deity of Culicarti origin. It is known to wander the death mounds just beyond the Culicarti walls.

## Appearance

Abufi is said to be a particularly terrifying Mana Deity considering its appearance, mannerisms, and abilities, so very few ever dare to venture near it. Those that do describe it as a shambling beast made of a dozen or so humanoid bodies, each interconnected at the shoulder, forming an outward-facing ring. Protruding in the dozens from the chest of each body segment are beaks, Mana leaking from the mouth of each and every one.

## Behavior

Abufi stumbles about the death mounds in a sort of stumbling walk. It appears that each body, despite being identical and part of the same being, has a mind of its own and as such it can't coordinate its movement all too well.

It moans in a haunting, yet musical tone.

It has been observed eating all manner of carcasses, from humanoid to animal to other Mana Deities. It will eat it regardless of its state of decay. It feeds using not just its own human mouths, but also its many beaks.

## Powers

It's not yet known the extent of Abufi's powers, although the following have been observed:

* Mana Bile - It may spit acidic Mana out of its many beaks at foes and potential prey.
* Climbing Proficiency - Abufi has been observed climbing surfaces that were thought to be unclimbable.
Jadeth Council

The Jadeth Council is the ruling government of Invardia. They are a collection of individuals thought to be the best fit to rule.

## The Mana Ablution Ceremony

The Mana Ablution Ceremony is a ritual performed once every year in which the Jadeth Council exchange Mana with the people of Invardia, collecting all contributions into one large pool, including from the White Lady's supplies. One by one, the Members then step into the pool and momentarily submerge themselves fully in the Mana, drawing in as much as they can. It is believed that doing this infuses each Jadeth Council Member with the thoughts of the people, making their thoughts and decisions more aligned with the current interests of the Invardium empire.

It's thought the Mana in these ceremonies completely disallows the creation of Mana Deities.
Manabloom

*See also: Mana.*

> Aren't they just beautiful? These Manablooms can hide any secret you desire behind their fantastical façade, and all you need is a drop of Mana.
>
> Lady Vena La'Vada, to her disciple Nuna Bloomer

A Manabloom is a flower that grows from places where Mana seeps into the ground, usually from the corpse of a recently-deceased animal. Manablooms are resilient flowers, growing in almost any condition, so long as there is already plant life around it and a source of Mana to fuel its growth. A Manabloom takes but a few days to grow to maturity, but its growth cycle can be sped up if the Mana is infused properly.

A Manabloom is capable of replicating the Mana it was initially infused with, meaning one can create a Manabloom with information present in it and have it be maintained. Additionally, a Manabloom's Mana will not taint as easily as it would if the Mana was placed into other things. Mana Casters use these properties to their advantage often, sending Manablooms back and forth with other Mana Casters containing important information that need to remain relatively clean for long periods of time. These Manabloom messages are often romantic in nature, and as such the Manabloom has become a symbol of love and romance.

Manablooms are the core focus of the Florinomica.
Joroni Wornal

Joroni is an Invardium man living with his family in the sparse region of the Almanari forest, a region bordering on Sarindite territory.

## Personality

Joroni is a disillusioned and somewhat jaded man, scarred by his many experiences from his past. He had once feared the temptation of Mana, but has come to find it essential to living in the harsh and unforgiving world of Vanquera. He is very protective of his family, going so far as to regularly hone his skills with a menagerie of tools and weapons. He is a capable Mana Caster, though not trusting enough to take part in any sort of official orders that would help him hone his skills further. He prefers he and his family keep to themselves, not interacting with anyone out of fear of betrayal.

He can see right through a person in a short period of time, and is skeptical by default as a rule.

## History

As a child, Joroni grew up in Invardia's undercity. He quickly learned that such a dark place was not welcome to those too fragile to protect themselves. Joroni picked up on a wide array of abilities for which he could use to evade detection or defend himself against those who would do him harm. Being betrayed, deceived, and lied to many times over the years made him into something of a living lie detector, capable of cutting through layers upon layers of deception.
Shattered Lands

The Shattered Lands is one of the major regions of Vanquera. It is believed to be the aftermath of a scarred battleground among the Celestials and quite possibly Mana Deities.

Venturing the cratered expanse is both incredibly difficult and incredibly dangerous for a number of reasons. The Shattered Lands are made up of colossal chunks of floating rock, reaching well into the sky. These rocks can be travelling at incredible speeds, and will sometimes fall unexpectedly.

The Shattered Lands are believed to withhold secrets key to the creation of Vanquera and much of its history, including how Mana Deities came to be and what happened to the Celestials. What these secrets are remains unclear.

## Wildlife

Despite the harsh conditions offered by the Shattered Lands, it is still home to a number of native species.
The Blonde-River Spirit

The Blonde-River Spirit is a Takarian legend, passed down through the ages generation after generation.

The legend goes that deep within the forest is a naked woman that wanders about after heavy snowfalls. Her long, golden hair wraps about her body every which way, providing at least some semblance of modesty. She is gaunt - unsightly so, her bones threatening to pierce her skin like a knife through canvas. Where she goes her hair follows, leaving a golden river atop the snow.

Early in the morning after a heavy snowfall, as the sun peeks beyond the horizon, some may find that their settlement has been surrounded in a circle of blonde hair. The woman may be spotted by those few that awaken so early in the morning, watching over them with a haunting gaze. She will then raise her arms, and hundreds of golden Manablooms will sprout through the snow. But be warned, as these Manablooms are deceitful in their beauty, for should one desire to partake of the Mana held within, they will only be met by unrelenting shrieking. This ghoulish internal screaming may last for hours, if not several days.

It is believed the Blonde-River Spirit is a harbinger of death; A sign of what's to come and a reminder of what came before. it's believed those who cannot resist taking the Mana from the Manablooms are destined to die by her next visit.
Alinvjara

Alinvjara is a deer-like Mana Deity featuring antlers like hands, a mane around its neck made of hands, a mouth that splits down the length of its head down to the base of its neck, while its eyes and tongue leak Mana.

Stabbed through Alinvjara's body is the Swaybrand *Unhinged Wrath.* When Alinvjara is provoked, the Swaybrand is expelled from its body and commanded through the air.

## Behavior

Alinvjara is normally a docile entity, but is perfectly capable of defending itself. It is not a being to be messed with.

Alinvjara has been known to be tamable, joining forces with whoever it deems worthy of its powers.
Gigantus Mecha Elopol

Elopol are a species of Mechabeast that reside within Nilmiri, a canyonland between Nuiparth and the Ruinous Wastes.

# Appearance

Elopol are large, donut-shaped Mechabeast with no apparent head. They use four splayed legs to wander about. They don't appear to have a front-facing direction, and so they may make sudden changes in direction without turning.

# Behavior

Elopol seem to be aimless creatures, and fall into the category Nutriexemptus, meaning they do not need to eat. Their reproductive process remains illusive, and as such they are attributed to being the creation of some sort of Myriad Machine.
