Damean
This Elven deity
is known by different names on different planes. To some, he
is known as Damaan, shadow guardian of nature, drow know him
as Bringer of Light. To some elves, he is known as their founding
deity, Corellon Larethian. In any and all cases, he claims only
to be known as a child of the goddess of nature herself.
He hopes to
lead his elven people to a brighter future, with less strife
and hardship some day. For now he spends his time helping
and teaching his beautiful wife Myra. At times, he can still
be seen at war with his evil half brother, Gruk. Their battles
are said to have been the cause of some of the greatest earthquakes
and other disasters to shape this land.

Gruk
Long before mortal
memory served to create history, Gruk was formed of a union
of gods, though which gods created this evil progeny, none speak
now of it. Wreathed in smoke and fire and bringing fiery death
to those it amuses him to smite, Gruk is a force of chaos, death,
and anarchy. Ages ago, battles with his half-brother Damean
caused Gruk to defile the land in hopes of creating minions
capable of snuffing out the delicate forces created by the good
gods.
Known and served
by the most abandoned of souls, Gruk holds loyalty to none
and delights only in what serves his trite amusement at any
given time.

Myra
Created by Damean
to help bring good to the lands, Myra was the first pixie in
existence. She served as a helper, and after many years of service
and friendship, fell in love with Damean and was married under
the Great Oak Tree. Her only condition on marriage was that
he make himself short when with her, and this is the reason
Damean is sometimes seen as only several inches tall.
In their magically
created home, they find happiness and work to improve the
world around them. A little short for even a pixie, Myra has
always been trying to be unique and different. She loves to
dance and sing, although not too good at the latter, as well
as meditate upon life. (it's hard for her to sit still for
long periods of time however) She spends her time running
throughout the world, and as quickly as she appears she disappears
with a smile and a wink. In pausing between work, she enjoys
playing harmless pranks on mortals and is curious as to their
history and quest in life.

Ilira
Born near the
beginning of time, Ilira is the younger sister of Damean, by
way of their father, the Ocean. She lives in the deep ocean,
where the water is calm and unaffected by any storms that may
rage above. She prefers to be surrounded by beauty and assists
in the pursuit of good. During the great creation, she is known
for taking several elves under her wing, giving them the ability
to breathe underwater and survive in her domain, hence creating
the first Sea-Elves.
Ilira is known
for her off-beat sense of humor and her ready smile, but she
has a temper and the oceans reflect her current mood

Laeryl
The violent destruction
that was taking place in Armonia resonated throughout the natural
world as well. As the good and evil races were formed and went
throughout the earth, Nature herself was brought into play.
The calm replenishing
of the forests and quietness of the land clashed against terrible
force of the meteors and volcanoes. Lava scorched ruts into
the soil on its way to the sea. As it reached the shores and
poured out into the ocean, horrible waves of steam and heat
rose up to the cool heavens. A violent storm arose and swept
out over the earth. The soothing liquid filled rivers and
created lakes as it moved along the land.
In the heart
of the great torrent a being named Laeryl was formed of these
celestial drops. The immortal keeper of winds and rains, she
controls the weather from her home in the heavens.

Kane
Kane began the mud when it was known as Eighth
Sin, and most likely several other names. We joined him
in the late 90's and after a time, due to illnesses, he
eventually handed the reins over to Damean. Although disappearing
for stretches at a time, he would always return to see what
we had begun work on, and to offer his opinion on everything.
Then one summer he didn't return and to our dismay we found
that he wouldn't be returning. We now dedicate the MUD in
memory of him, and hope that somewhere he is smiling and
reminding us that the game is supposed to be fun above all
other things.

Loklor
As a mage the
thirst for power is a fine line between wisdom and chaos. In
the early days before the evil had spread and the innocent still
ruled the lands. I found that innocent souls gave incredible
amounts of power, the more the souls the greater the power.
Eventually I discovered a dark spell for ultimate power, the
exchange for all those pitiful innocent souls for the ultimate
power.
Youth deprives
the student the gift of wisdom and patience in the quest for
the very things he seeks.Those who sought the same power plotted
against me and struck me down just before the power was bestowed
upon me. The dark forces I failed to serve frowned upon my
failure. I received power, but it was twisted and deprived,
ultimately enslaving. I became bound to the underworld, lording
over the souls I had won. I serve now as keeper of the tormented
souls I've turned to my folly, trapped in the depths of these
wretched lands. In the time before I became trapped in the
guise, my thirst for that ultimate power drove me to the brink
of destruction.
Though through
great cunning I give myself the liberty of escaping to the
surface to entice some new soul into an eternity of servitude.

Zara
Born
into slavery under a cruel and merciless master,
Zara came to be. The master who saved her
was a kind and beautiful one, who taught her
to love everything in nature. Being touched
by such magnificience changed her whole inner
being, so that even though there is a Dwarf
on the outside, inside is a child of nature.
Shunned by her kin, she roams the realm helping
those in need, regardless of race or creed.
