Category:The Vvrael Saga
The Vvrael are a malevolent force from another plane of existence. They have never been seen and the Vvrael servants within the Rift are only followers corrupted by the Vvrael's anti-mana nature. If they ever entered our realm physically our world may cease to exist. That is why the Chosen and their sacrifice was so incredible and why we continue to be wary of the menace the rift presents.
Thirteen Chosen would be called upon. The 4th of them would be found by the Vvrael first.

Behind The Scenes
The Vvrael was loosely based on the Unlife, which was essentially "anti-mana", and an extra-planar collective sentience called the Agothu. These were utterly alien along with the other "Older Ones" - either grotesque monstrosities called "Destroyers", or deceptively similar to ourselves and thus "Conformers" - who were "eerie demigods" of the Outer Void. In this point of view of a singular awareness with a diversity of forms, the Vvrael is its servants, having no separate existence from what it consumes. It would not even be meaningful to fight The Vvrael itself.
In the ICE Age history the Void was sealed with powerful artifacts called the Eyes of Utha, gemstones floating over ornate pedestals, which were replaced with the Rift and Eyes of Koar for Elanthia. Terate replaced the figures of Ondoval and Schrek, the former wishing to destroy the northern Eye to end the world, the latter being half-possessed of Agoth and so trying to plunge the world into the interdimensional rift. The "Blade of the Void" was a soul eater belonging to Lorgalis. The "Knife of the Void", held by Ondoval, was the one that looked like an utterly black void in space.
