Althares: The patron god of sages, wisemen, and those who seek lost secrets and knowledge. Anshar: The goddess who looks after the destitute, the oppressed and the outcast, regardless of the reasons for their situation. Beltine: The Shrouded Goddess who minds the Cauldron and has dominion over the underworld and the dead. Cadic: The Dark Hand of Illiir is the patron god of thieves, spies and assassins as well as musicians, bards and artisan. Hurrian: The Reluctant Warrior who has domain over honorable combat as well as lightning and storm. Illiir: He is the Head of the Pantheon and serves as the patron deity of emperors, kings, lords and others in positions of power. Larissa: The Oracle of the Gods is also given to acts of hedonistic pleasures to cleanse visions of the future from her mind. Nier: The Left Hand of Illiir, this god is the embodiment of war and also stands in judgment of the souls of the dead. Neroth: The Death-Bringer rules within the earth and has dominion over disease as well as the body and minds of the dead. Saluw: She is the patron goddess of women and the caretaker of all things that grow upon or below the earth. Sarish: The god of oaths and arcane magic, he also claims as his dominion the summoning and binding of demons. Yarris: The god of the oceans to which many give prayers for safe passage through his domain.

Abessian Dominion: Recently gaining its freedom from the Coryani Empire with the help of the Yigites, this nation was formed by refugees from a southern Myrantian kingdom. The Free-States of Almeric: Made up of land from both Milandir and Coryan, this newly formed nation continues to suffer from constant internal warfare to find a strong leader. Altherian Republic: Ruled by a Council of Wisdom, the republic views itself as the most knowledgeable place in the world, and seeks to share their culture with the rest of the world. Blessed Lands: Claimed as a birthright by the Coryani, Elorii, Ssethregorans, and Khitani, this holy land has been the site of numerous and bloody wars trying to reclaim it. Theocracy Canceri: Despised by the rest of the world, the lands of Canceri are harsh and unforgiving and its people come from many places to be put into a rigid caste system. Coryani Empire: The inheritor of the greatness of the First Imperium, the Coryani Empire is forged from many now independent nations and is the seat of the Mother Church. Dwarven Enclaves: Each Enclave is as distinct as its people, reflecting the roles that each played in the downfall of the Dwarves from the roles as the celestial protectors. Elorii Nations: Made up of three separate nations, each trying to restore the Elemental Lords to life and preparing for the inevitable war with humanity that the Elorii await. Hinterlands: An amalgamation of tribes and cities, the Hinterlands geography varies between the open plains of the nomadic tribes to the commercial coastal city of Censure. League of Princes: Consisting of many small nations and at least five distinct races, the League functions through treaties, mutual obligations, and ancient obscure family duties. Kingdom of Milandir: A former Coryan province, Milandir was founded on the principles of honor and obligation and its people view themselves a beacon of righteousness. Pirate Isles: The Pirate Isles are a series of islands each claimed by a different group or organization but with a unifying credo of Stay out of my business! which has kept the peace. Ssethregoran Empire: Home to the varied reptilian ssethrics, Ssethregore has tried constantly to expand, often resulting in wars with the peoples of those lands. Unsealed Lands: Beyond the Godswall, these lands contain pockets of both human and infernal societies, each ruled by strict laws, rigid customs, fear or unyielding courage. Ymandragore, Isles of the Sorcerer-King: Ruled by the Sorcerer-King, the Isles are spoken of in hushed whispers by most, with tales of barbaric rituals and dark magic.

Dark Kin: These damned souls have the misfortune of bearing a recessive infernal bloodline that appears once every so many generations. While scorned by most people, the majority of darkkin simply try their best to make their way in the world, fighting against their infernal heritage or embracing the darkness within. Dwarf: Once the Celestial Giants, great beings who swore an oath to protect humanity, the dwarves are now cursed by Illiir to never gain entrance to the afterlife or the cycle of rebirth within the Cauldron. Each dwarven enclave has taken up a craft, striving to produce the "perfect item" to fulfill their bargain with Sarish to break the curse. Elorii: Created by Belisarda and the four Elemental Lords as the perfect servitor race for the Ssethregoran Empire, the Elorii eventually rose up in rebellion against their masters. Each Elorii traces their bloodline to one of their five creators, and many still harbor hatred for the humans, whose deities consumed their own Elemental Lords. Gnome: The result of the forbidden mating between a dwarf and human, gnomes are the most tragic and reviled race in the Known Lands. Gnomes are pitiful, twisted creatures, bearing deformities passed through their dwarven parents, but also tenacious, tough, clever, and prone to survival through choice. Human: Supplanting the grant Elorii empire, the humans came to the world in ancient times and have quickly become the dominant majority in almost all the Known Lands. Due to their short-lived nature, humans have a capacity to live in the moment, for the moment and attack each problem with zeal. Kio: An ancient and mysterious race, the Kio are said to have arrived in the Western Lands on flying islands. Almost entirely uniform in appearance with their grace and fair complexion, Kio are known for their patient consideration of all choices as well as their decisive actions once a course has been decided. Ssressen: Uses as slave masters or elite shock troops, this Ssethric sub-race consists of many different egg clutches, different in outlook but sharing the same matriarchic societal rules. While many of the clutches war with neighboring nations, several have broken with tradition and live either in uneasy peace or open alliance with other nations. Undir: A simple and open people, the Undir lead uncomplicated lives, taking from the land what they need to survive and rarely coveting possessions or power. Tales of their heritage as offspring of the Undine Nodala and a human hunter are given weight by the presence of their webbed fingers and toes. Val: Created by the fusing of a Valinors essence with that of a human family, each Val family owes is bloodline to one of the gods of man. Touched by divine essence, Val are the ruling nobility and protectors of humanity with powers granted by the gods through the generations.

Elorii Deities
Belisarda: The Life Mother is the last of the Elemental Lords of the Elorii and teachers her children patience and forgiveness.

Myrantian Deities
Tzizhet: The head of the Myrantian Pantheon and represents pure destructive power over life and death.

Ssressen Deities
Fire Dragon: The guardian to his people, the Ss'ressen, looking out for them while preferring to not interfere. Jeggal Sag: The Master of Beasts has insight into and power over the natural creatures of the wild, as well as drakes and their ilk. Kassegore: As head of the Old Ssethric Pantheon, he is the primal personification of the great cycle of creation and destruction. Yig: The Life Bringer balances Kassegore with her domain over creation, though she also personifies lust during mating season.
