Deity: The Blightborn |
Realm: Fellowship of Light, Minions of Darkness |
When the Blightborn entered
this world, the energies given off by the Breach created the Drakken,
the oldest of all races of Mirth.
The Drakken recognize only
the Blightborn as true Gods, the true rulers of two realms, and the creators
of the Drakken.

Deity: Kauldur |
Realm: Minions of Darkness |
Kauldur and Sashaan gave
birth to the second oldest of the races of Mirth, the Elves.
The Mother of all Elves,
Sashaan, nurturing, insightful, and quick-witted, hoped her children would be
stewards of the lands of Mirth, but Kauldur, the Father, cunning, decisive
and callous, burned with the desire for his sons to rule over all.
Over time these differences
grew into a burning hatred in Kauldur’s heart, and the single race was torn
apart.
Sashaan's children, as fair
in face as she herself, crossed the land living as nomads. They strived to
become one with the world in all its diversity. Kauldur saw this as an
insult, and in his rage he collected his chosen children to live within a
place as dark and somber as himself. In his unforgiving presence Kauldur's
Elves began to reflect their father's desires, in both action and form. They
grew dark, cruel, and became the most cunning of all the races upon the land.
The Elves worship Sashaan
the Mother, and feel pity and sympathy for their kin the Dark Elves, but the
Dark Elves, aligned with their Father Kauldur, feel nothing but loathing and
hatred in return.
It has been prophesied that
one named Kuruhaut, an Elf born anew of Kauldur and Sashaan, will heal the
Elven family and reunite the two halves, but it is unknown if the Elves of Kuruhaut
will follow the light path of Sashaan, or the dark of Kauldur.

Deity: Rook |
Realm: Fellowship of Light |
Rook is also known as The
Trickster and less respectfully, The Sneak.
He is a shapeshifter, and
can appear as any race, sex, size, or animal that suits his purposes. Playful
and crafty, Rook favors fortune and whimsy over diligence and labor.
No one knows Rook's true
form or even his true name, but it is believed that Rook often manifests as
an unremarkable Crow.

Deity: The Ruin Tenebrous ✠ |
Realm: Minions of Darkness ✠ |
The Ruin Tenebrous was named
thus by the Adumbrate for what this Blight Lord is: a massive, dark, foul
thing that is bent upon ruination.
Unlike the other Blight
Lords who lust for power or revenge, the Ruin Tenebrous has no agenda, desire
or thought other than to sow chaos, destruction and despair.
It has been said Lord
Profane himself uses the Ruin Tenebrous to crush the spirits of his enemies,
and it has been further whispered that it was Tenebrous alone slaughtering
the Blightborn as the great Dragons escaped through The Breach.
Followers of the Ruin
Tenebrous are amongst the least rational and most savage who dwell within the
Minions of Darkness. And when they speak of their master, they do not use the
name Ruin Tenebrous. To them he is know as The Ruin or more aptly the single
terrifying word: Dark.
The Ruin is widely
worshipped by Ogres, Orcs, and Trolls.

Deity: Zharim |
Realm: Fellowship of Light |
Believed to dwell upon the
inaccessible peak of the Mountain that bears his name, Zharim is a powerful
and stoic God. From his lofty peak he gazes upon the world.
His followers disregard the
notion of luck, and instead favor hard work. The lord of the forge and the
mine, Zharim's followers have little use for levity or and less for prayer.
Instead, they believe that one creates their own destiny and their own way in
the world, much the same way an axe is formed or a stone is moved: through
sweat, labor and perseverance.
Zharim is usually depicted
as a stocky and rough person made of stone, embodying the attributes of both
of the races he fathered, the Dwarves and the Titans.
