“A census? of Nestor?! Can you imagine that chaos?!
Gods protect me from the insane and unstable!”
– Ethel, Elderly Tax Clerk
Herein are documented the peoples of the realms.
They are not all my creations.
I will play them like their creators once did,
however, we are custodians of their concepts,
and we are respectful to the ideas of others.
Nestorians
The Nestorian Empire is filled with all manner of folk, refugees, plane-walkers, priests, paladins, racist country folk, angel-spawn, the list is honestly endless.
Most of them are just honest people, trying to make a living, but this is one crazy city so theres still plenty of ‘crazy’ to go around

The Thassians
Imperial Thass is the largest nation north of Mare, and is the local rival to the state of Nestor. Thass commands and controls a large confederacy of contentious smaller nations and city states, typically known as ‘Lower Thass’, and in the more peaceful times tends to duel with Mare for control and influence of the Duchies of Devrry Hills
Thass is a powerful force in the region, and is known to meddle in the affairs of other nations to their own benefit. They have also been known to enslave blue drakes as siege weapons, so not the nicest of folk.
Daemons of the Warrens
On Sentretta, a world formed around a magical shell of matter, surrounding a time and dimension rift, demons can just be a fact of life and are not always ‘evil’ as typically portrayed in the stories that merchants tell. Demons typically just beings that are from a realm of elemental alignment, Fire, Ice, etc, however there are other less specialized species also live and roam in the ways between the warrens, learning tricks and tales about the living and how to influence them.
All Daemons, large or small, should be treated with absolute care and caution.
Beware the below.
- The Nogrod
- Gauluggar, Warden of Stone
- Mothock, Blood Lurker
- Slurg
