Location Sharkbone Warrens A cannibal bone city built from the rib-cages of the deep, its warrens of grown bone, its air thick with the smell of the tide.

Historical Event The Golden Age of Remedy The era when Remedy was at its peak — the guild that saved the world, with Uaellaen, Wreckreate, Rumzuck, and Smackage at its core.

Race Water Goblins Gill-rimmed goblin packs that live under the waves in a flooded cave network no chart has mapped.

Location Windcliff Roost A sheer cliff face studded with roost-platforms, its wind a constant howl, its silence broken only by the feather and the flight.

Deity Mordra, the Unraveler God of chaos, luck, and decay. A pocket universe in the middle of coming apart; everything in it is becoming something else, and the god is the becoming.

Deity Pyrra, the First Flame God of fire, storm, and raw element. The first thing that ever burned. She is not warm — she is the heat that makes warm possible.

Deity Morthane, the Lord of Fear God of the Plane of Fear. The pale, winged terror Remedy raided at the peak of their golden age — the legendary capstone that made their name.

Race Dregmaw Shark-skinned, gilled cannibals of the bone city. They decide who is fed, and they consider the tide a promise the bone keeps.

Magic System The Elemental Planes The eight elemental planes: fire, water, earth, air, poison, venom, dark, and light. The source of all elemental magic, the home of the elementals, and the planes the dragons are born masters of.

Creature Wind-Rider Vantari The Vantari that goes — the bird of the open, the messenger, the scout, and the hunter of the far ground, who carries the roost out into the whole of the sky.

Creature Sky-Keeper Vantari The Vantari that stays — the warden of the roost-platform, the one who counts the eggs, mends the ledge, and keeps the cliff whole through the storm.

Creature Bone-Carry Dregmaw A shark-skinned, gilled judge of the bone city who carries the warren's bones and keeps the low warrens, the warren's quick, clannish, and most certain hand.

Race Shadow Goblins Nearly-blind goblin packs who live in a sunless sinkhole, reading the dark by sound and shadow and treating light as noise.

Creature Trap-Goblin The goblin that builds the trap the rest of the warren eats by — small, patient, and the only beast that considers a spring-loaded jaw a form of art.

Creature Vein-Reader Dwarf An iron-skinned deep-dwelling dwarf of the delve who reads the deep-veins by the dark and the sound of the stone, the clan's patient, remembering, and most careful eye.

Creature Stormdrinker Lightning Goblin A charged, reckless goblin of the crystal spires who drinks the storm through the spires' pale blue light and meters the sky like a well.

Character Uaellaen Dark elf archmage, god-slayer, former Remedy member, founder of The Forgotten, and narrator of this universe's story.

Creature True-Flight Angel The tall, narrow, slightly-too-clean line of the highest plane, with a pair of true wings folded at the back in a soft ivory to pale gold range and a pair of large, clear pale gold eyes. Its wings are not a tool but a statement, and the statement is the flight.

Character Uuaellaen Uaellaen's actual biological brother — a dark elf of immense power. High-level cleric, Archon, and High Priest.

Character Tigole Halfling rogue, leader of Legacy of Steel, rival guild to Remedy, and Uaellaen's mentor in the icy tundras.

Creature Superior-Darkness Dark Elf The elven line in the deep, tall and narrow-waisted, with skin the deep violet to a near-black and a network of fine, pale violet veins at the temples. It is at home in the dark the way the surface is at home in the light, and the dark never burns it.

Dragon Stonewrought An ancient Earth Dragon, master of mountains and tectonic forces.

Creature Sound-Reader Shadow Goblin A nearly-blind goblin of the sunless sinkhole who reads the dark by sound and shadow and treats light as noise.

Race Leech Folk Parasitic marsh folk of the blood pits. They trade in blood, always, and they consider the ledger a promise the pit keeps.
