The places in between universes and the Raven King: There are several ways to
|
|
move between universes that the party knows of:
|
|
|
|
1. The Pathways of the Raven King- named after the famous sojourner but far
|
|
older than he, the pathways connect alternate universes and timeliness
|
|
through reflective surfaces. Magically induced light behaves strangely here
|
|
and physics tends to be relative. People who die seem to quickly be raised
|
|
into undead. Powerful outsiders, and even dieties, fear to use or even
|
|
observe these paths, however it is known to the party that several versions
|
|
of Caymden Cailen have done so.
|
|
2. Portals of the Old Ones- built by ancient cults of obscurity, the party
|
|
decided not to even consider using them at the advice of Palemon, the Crown
|
|
Prince in Exile (an alternate version of the Forgotten Lord, who tended to
|
|
rage instead of melancholy).
|
|
3. Harvey and Gek were returned to their home universe by either a technological
|
|
or magical beam employed by servants of the Throne of Worlds that used
|
|
neither of these methods.
|
|
|
|
Visiting other dimensions is perilous, largely because of the predatory
|
|
multiverse entity known as Tindalos. Hiding from Tindalos is the Sojourner's
|
|
best bet and the ways the party currently knows of are:
|
|
|
|
1. To bend the knee to the Throne of Worlds, a LN force that values obedience to
|
|
hierarchical order, taming the wild and dangerous facets of nature and
|
|
growing civilizations
|
|
2. Become a student of the Raven King, an arcane caster that has delved into the
|
|
secrets of the pathways between worlds and used them to his own advantage
|
|
3. Eat a piece of Tindalos and become one of its many mouths, in so doing you
|
|
get feed instead of be food but you will suck at parties forevermore
|
|
4. Learn the "Shaded Way" an arcane practice that learned from how Tindalos does
|
|
what it does without being at its unsatiable whims. They feed on Sojourners
|
|
and psychic casters, but exactly how is not somethinf the party knows.
