The Manastream: The Manastream is used to describe two different things throughout the realm. Often times, the word is used to describe the vast network of planes connected to one another through the mysterious pillar of magical energy. These planes sometimes interact, bringing up inexplicable changes or happenings through the world of Erilen, and in many cases, changing the state of the land or influencing the culture of its people.

The Manastream, or Lifestream, is a pillar of energy that rises from a bottomless pit within the polar ice cap of Aslo. This energy created from the Lifestream is said to be used to fabricate all life on Erilen. The Gods themselves have trouble discerning the origins of this mysterious pillar; only Natinatara herself knows of its true purpose.


Souls: Souls are a ‘core’ that consists of two things; Essence of Being, and Mana. The former can be found in abundance within all souls, and while mana is found within this core, only a select few have the desire to tap into their reserves in order to use magic. Souls are required for life, without a soul, that being will be non-existent.

Essence of Being the key to life, without it, that being ceases to exist, and is completely ‘erased’. The essence remains with the being even after death; in short, the Essence of Being is what makes the body and flesh, and without it, that person/thing will fade from existence. The Essence of Being carries everything -- the individual’s memories, life, even personality are held within.

Planes: Realms, layers, dimensions. Many names are used to describe the hundreds of thousands of planes that are found throughout the multiverse. Each plane is unique and works in its own way, some uninhabitable, some brimming with life, and others being home to bizarre, alien creatures. Some planes are connected directly to Erilen through the Lifestream, which allows for easier access through the use of portals or Planeswalking.


The Abyss: The Abyss is chaos incarnate. It is where the souls of incredibly sinful mortals go as direct punishment from the gods; when hell doesn't do it, The Abyss does. The Abyss is a sprawling plane filled with demons and an innumerable amount of layers, and likewise, an innumerable amount of Abyssal Lords. These Demon Princes are locked in constant battle with each other; no one being truly rules The Abyss; instead, it's an eternal blood bath.


Timeline help: CE Refers to the Creation Era, which is the era in which Rhysvial and his dragons were both respected as fellow gods and godlings. The Era lasted for 2,000 years.


TE is the Trinity's Era; or Murielle, Xalon, and Amelia's Era after the fall of Rhysvial.

The roleplay takes place at exactly 4000 TE.
