He claims to have learned a spell capable of undoing the Vergence, adopting the style '''Keeper of the Final Incantation''' thereafter. While not wid...")

In Wisteria, they usually hail from the Shimmering Shore. Like many individuals in similar hereditary situations they are usually the victims of the prejudices of humans and elves; while the lands of the Shimmering Shore are getting increasingly used to the idea since the Great Collapse, Bastonia and the Atarlie Empire see far fewer Slyph and still maintain their old...")

• 15:08, 28 December 2021 Zadammac talk contribs created page Southern Expurgation (Created page with "{{Incomplete Record}} The '''Southern Expurgation''' (ASM 13-ASM 35) was a military campaign waged by the Kingdom of Bastonia against the remaining loyalists to the Enemy in what is now the Lordless Lands. The campaign began as a purge of Chivalric Orders like the Men of the Gauntlet which remained loyal to the Enemy after the Battle of the First Wall. However, the widespread nature of the conflict lead Bastonia into direct conflic...")

While most early smiths considered mithril an unworkable form of dross, the dwarves of the Clans of Magnus eventually learne...")
• 14:44, 28 December 2021 Zadammac talk contribs created page Balgharond (Created page with "{{Stub}} '''Balgharond''' was a Pit Lord in the service of the Enemy during the Age of Rebellion, and likely quite some time before. He was the overseer of one of many slave-operated mines in the Bleak. The Pit Lord's slaying by the then-mortal San Lukas is a key part of the legendarium of the Church of Bastonia and marked the formal beginning of the human rebellion against the enemy which would ultimately c...")

Smaller than humans or elves, they are culturally affiliated with good, quiet, gentle living, and were created originally as exemplars of this ideal - indirectly, as an expression of the collective desire for these things of all sentient life on Ahr...")

It begins with the establishment of the Clans of Magnus by Magnus Allfather during the Age of Tutelage, a period during which the dwarves and their pantheon actually populated Ahren together. Dwarven scholars insist - and records from outsider races agree - that the Age of Tutelage and the creation of...")

On Wisteria, this is commonly understood to have began with the Vergence (accounts differ on whether or not this was the start of life, or simply the start of a material Ahren) and to have ended with the beginning of...")
• 00:02, 27 December 2021 Zadammac talk contribs created page Vergence (Created page with "{{Stub}} A '''Vergence''' is a proposed event under the cosmological understandings of the Way of the Elements and Ars Magica schools of arcane thought which results as a nature of the relative motion of the planes. When the eight essential planes (and possibly the abstractive planes) come into a relative alignment with each other, the result is said to be the creation of a Prime Material Plane, such as Ahren. The fundamental disagreement be...")

Voices have come from all genders amongst the dwarves and are invariably chosen by divine intervention; in point of fact they are almost always oracles in addition to their clerical duties. The Voice of Torserd lives out the remainder of their life in a state of perpetual channeling meditation in t...")
• 23:06, 26 December 2021 Zadammac talk contribs created page Roots of the Mountains (Created page with "{{Incomplete Record}} The '''Roots of the Mountains''' are the shallowest portion of the great underground of Wisteria, the Deeps, which draw their name from being largely those tunnels, roadways, and natural features beneath the Atlas Mountains.

ASM 40 and ASM 55. It refers to a cosmological disaster that befell the area now known as the Bleak, south of Great Fen. A confluence of cosmological forces and the sudden loss of the divine influence of the Enemy in that region - which is believed to have been suppressing those forces - lead to this disaster. As a result,...")

The seat of power for this prefect is up to their discretion, but is usually the city of Corran. The Prefect of the South is afforded remarkable latitude in managing the affairs of his province by comparison to the other five prefects, and while it was originally viewed as something of a backwater province, that has cha...")

The guild is headquartered and trains in Khaz Valaimcral, which also hosts a dedicated eyrie.

Accordingly, they are rarely seen outside t...")
