The Realm of Malteria

In Malteria Magic is a force known truly to only a few, though there are court wizard’s here and there and witches practicing in secret, druids calling upon the very earth and clerics and their gods. Many can wield it, but few to it’s true potential extent. To truly wield magic one must master the access or control over the Arcana or Abyss respectively. Arcana The Arcana is one of the two forces that has always been, it flows ever churning the very fabric of what makes all things; a force left behind in whatever created all we call home. Arcana is the first of two ways magic is used since all things are made of it, it’s the easier of the two to use. The two most common ways to “use” Magic through Arcana is via Inner and Outer Nodes.

Their exact reasons for leaving has long been lost to history, but many suspect the exodus came about due to political differences.

Though due to his oft leaving the Barrow for his business in the Tower of Nidal eventually Nizam was captured by the Jailers of Oricalcos, Prison of the Old Gods, he would eventually escape though through unknown means. And as such he would eventually become entrapped in the Tower after the cataclysm. Jesper, however, fared much better as he had long before attained his “immortality” this being the case he never left the Barrow mostly keeping ...
